Weatherby Engineering Co. neared completion recently of 8 modules mounting a total of 9 gas turbine engines, all destined for an offshore gas injection platform. The platform capacity is 80 MMcfd. The inlet pressure on the platform is 45 psig and the discharge pressure is 3,410 psig. The system constitutes a complete gas dehydration and compressor station and the modules house the gas turbines which drive the centrifugal and reciprocating compressors for gas injection service, and 2 gas turbine-powered generating units to supply electric power for the platform complex. The gas turbines and compressors are installed in sound attenuated enclosures. These complete power packages are built up by Solar and supplied to Weatherby for the project. The complete module is described.
