Energy and Power defined and completed the Engineering, Procurement Project and Construction Management role on an Early Production Facility for this onshore oil field. Energy and Power developed Operating systems and trained and mentored SNPC technical staff.

Energy and Power is acting as Owner’s Engineer for this EDF Energy salt cavern gas storage project in Cheshire. Energy and Power is defining the engineering design limits and criteria within which the detail design is developed, monitoring the detail design, co-ordinating technical matters with drilling contractors and managing the overall delivery of the gas storage and treatment facilities.

Energy and Power was awarded a contract to assist our client to build facilities to allow them to gain revenue and to fully test the reservoir over the first few months after completing drilling.

Work on this utilities based project was undertaken over an eighteen-month pre-sanction period with Energy and Power supporting the client organisation in their structure and provision of procurement support services to augment areas where the contractor organisation had been identified as weak. This arrangement allowed the client to concentrate on the key issues of managing the authorities, financial institutions and government bodies and other stakeholders.

Feasibility study and cost estimate for a large-scale gas development in the Middle East, interface to authorities and liaison in country. Provision of on-going support to the client in their negotiations for a new offshore development.

Design of flare and vent systems of a gas pipeline development and associated Compressor Station for Zuetina Oil Company, Libya.

Energy and Power were requested to identify development scenarios and associated costs as input to Pan Petroleum’s economic analysis and valuation of the block.

The Energy and Power study scope included a technical HSE and operational survey, followed by multi-discipline concept design for development of four new GOSP facilities and refurbishment and improvement of 11 existing GOSP facilities.

A study was undertaken to assess the potential future use of the depleted reservoirs (almost end of field life) and infrastructure of an offshore gas production facility in the North Sea. Potential options considered were storage of natural gas for seasonal production to the UK gas market and storage of flue gas (CO2) produced as a by-product of power generation from fossil fuels.

Energy and Power supported Centrica and Grain LNG in the first two phases of development at the LNG import terminal at the Isle of Grain in Kent.

FEED study work for 300MW open cycle power station in Tunisia, gas reception facilities and interconnecting pipeline on accelerated schedule. The power plant consisted of 7 aero-derivative gas turbine generators equipped with inlet air chilling equipment.

Energy and Power has provided engineering verification and project management services.

The engineering verification and project management addressed all disciplines of the development within engineering offices, vendor locations and site. In addition, we have provided services centred around specific scopes of work including incident investigation, HAZOP close out, management of QRA and development of Safety Case.

Field development and process support to offshore development throughout lifecycle. Option selection process review and development of full production chemistry premise for facility. Development of models for process and ongoing option selection studies of near-lying reserves.

The Energy and Power team undertook the project management of the increase in gas storage compression duties, gas turbines upgrade and compression equipment change-out including all engineering verification.

Energy and Power has undertaken three separate scopes of work for Dragon LNG and currently works under a Framework Agreement.

Energy and Power performed this study as Shell was seeking an update on the current state of the FSRU market.

Energy and Power is appointed under a framework agreement to assist marine energy developers in Strand C of the Carbon Trust’s Marine Energy Accelerator project. Under this initiative the Carbon Trust seeks to speed the advance and development of offshore marine power generation technologies by funding the involvement of specialists to supplement developers’ in-house expertise.

Based upon an available 400-500 tonnes of dry “feed” per week, Energy and Power reviewed the potential options including pyrolysis, gasification, anaerobic digestion and combustion/incineration. Capital costs, reliability, proven installed technology, size of footprint and capacity of power generated were considered for each option.

Energy and Power were employed by the UK government’s Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) to review the potential of the patented Mid Range LNG process developed by Gas Consult Ltd.
