Veolia delivered an MPPE water treatment module to the Ichthys LNG project’s floating production and storage unit (FPSO). The 450 ton MPPE module unit, containing two parallel MPPE units, has been successfully transported to Korea and placed on the FPSO.
The INPEX-operated Ichthys LNG Project will involve offshore preliminary processing of gas from the Ichthys Field to remove water and extract condensate before being transported to onshore LNG processing facilities in Darwin via an 890 km pipeline. Most condensate will be sent to an in-field FPSO from which it will be shipped to market. The Ichthys LNG Project is expected to produce up to 8.9 MMtpy of LNG and 1.6 MMtpy of LPG, along with approximately 100 Mbpd of condensate at peak.
During the production of gas and condensate, formation and dehydration water is co-produced containing toxic dissolved and dispersed aromatics, aliphatics and polyaromatic hydrocarbons. The MPPE technology is able to remove all of these toxic compounds securely and in a single process to comply with the strictest requirements for zero harmful discharge. The two fully automated MPPE units are delivered in one module.
The MPPE unit was designed and built following the highest offshore standards and is designed for an operational lifetime of 40 years. It fulfills the present and future health, safety, environmental and ergonomic requirements.
