INTRODUCTION
The North Field is the world’s largest natural gas field and accounts for nearly all of the state of Qatar’s gas production. The reservoir pressure in the North Field has been declining due to continuous production since the early 1990s. The principal objective of the NFPS Project is to sustain the plateau from existing QG South Operation (RL Dry Gas, RGE Wet gas) and existing QG North Operation (QG1 & QG2) production areas by implementing an integrated and optimum investment program consisting of subsurface development, pressure drop reduction steps and compression. Refer to the figure below for a schematic of the North Field.
Qatargas Operating Company Limited is leading the development of the North Field Production Sustainability (NFPS) Project.
1.1 Project Objective
The objective of this Project includes:
• Achieve standards of global excellence in Safety, Health, Environment, Security and Quality
performance.
• Sustain the Qatargas North Field Production Plateau by installing new Compression Complex facilities CP6S & CP7S in QG south with integration to the existing facilities under Investment #3 program.
• Facility development shall be safe, high quality, reliable, maintainable, accessible, operable,
and efficient throughout their required life.
1.2 Project Scope
The Project Scope includes detailed engineering, procurement, construction, transportation & installation, hook-up and commissioning, tie-in to EXISTING PROPERTY and provide support for start- up activities of the following facilities and provisions for future development. The WORK shall be following the specified regulations, codes, specifications and standards, achieves the specified performance, and is safe and fit‐for‐purpose in all respects.
Offshore
CP6S and CP7S Compression Complexes that are part of QG-S RGE facilities as follows:
• CP6S Compression Complex
• Compression Platform CP6S, Living Quarters LQ6S, Flare FL6S
• Bridges BR6S-2, BR6S-3, BR6S-4, BR6S-5
• Bridge linked Tie-in to RP6S
Production from existing wellheads (WHP6S & WHP10S) and new wellhead (WHP14S) are routed via riser platform RP6S to compression platform CP6S to boost pressure and export to onshore via two export lines through the existing WHP6S pipeline and a new 38” carbon steel looping trunkline from RP6S (installed by EPCOL). CP6S is bridge-linked to RP6S.
• CP7S Compression Complex
• Compression Platform CP7S, Living Quarters LQ7S, Flare FL7S
• Bridges BR7S-2, BR7S-3, BR7S-4, BR7S-5

NFPS Offshore Compression Complexes Project COMP2 SPECIFICATION FOR FIELD INSTRUMENTATION (INCL. FLOW, LEVEL, PRESSURE, TEMPERATURE AND FIRE & GAS DEVICES) FOR CP6S AND CP7S COMPLEXES
• Bridge linked Tie-in to RP7S
CP7S shall receive production from existing wellheads (WHP5S & WHP7S) and new wellhead (WHP13S). There is only one export line for CP7S through the existing export pipeline from WHP7S. CP7S is bridge-linked to RP7S.
RGA Complex Destressing
Migration of the Electrical power source, Telecoms, Instrumentation and Control systems from WHPs and RPs hosted by RGA to the respective Compression Complexes listed below:
• WHP6S, WHP10S, WHP14S, RP6S and RP10S to CP6S Compression Complex
• WHP5S, WHP7S, WHP13S and RP7S to CP7S Compression Complex
Destressing of Telecoms, Instrumentation and Control system in RGA Complex Control Room, which would include decommissioning and removal of telecom system devices and equipment that would no longer be required post migration and destressing activity.
Onshore
An Onshore Collaborative Center (OCC) will be built under EPC-9, which will enable onshore based engineering teams to conduct full engineering surveillance of all the offshore facilities. The OCC Building will be located in Ras Laffan Industrial City (RLIC) within the Qatar Gas South Plot. MICC & Telecommunication, ELICS related scope will be performed in the OCC building.

B31.3.

(30.07 mm). Due to these very small clearances, the use of these devices in dirty services should be avoided and the use of strainers should be considered.
Accuracy of the Integral Orifice with the transmitter shall be ± 2 % of flow rate or better.
10.8 Conditioning Orifice Plate
Conditioning orifice plates are recommended in lieu of traditional orifice plates when insufficient upstream piping is available to meet the straight run requirements and will cause flow profile issues.
Conditioning orifice plates shall be used only in applications where the measurement accuracy is not critical.
The beta ratio (d/D) for a conditioning orifice is determined using the sum of the area of the four bores. This beta is equivalent to the area of a bore “d” in the standard equation “beta = d/D” for a standard orifice meter. Thus, for a given beta, each bore diameter of a conditioning orifice is equal to half the bore diameter of a standard orifice.
Beta ratios between 0.4 and 0.65 are recommended.
A conditioning orifice shall be centered in the pipe (the same as a traditional orifice plate). A conditioning orifice shall be installed such that its orientation has the taps located perpendicular between two of the four holes (bottom taps shall be avoided).
