AN ANALYSIS OF KONDENSAT TRANSFER POWER OF PUMPIN PT. PERTAMINA EP ASSET 2

Abstract

Condensate is a liquid hydrocarbon with a small number of carbon atoms which is a
byproduct of oil and gas production. However condensate has several benefits one of
them as a fuel substitute for gasoline, of course, before being used as fuel condensate
needs to be drained from the oil well to the collecting station and then pumped to the
refinery. Thus the need to analyze how the continuity equation of condensate flow in the
pipeline that will obtain the required flow head and pump power requirements. The
purpose of this study was to determine the required flow head to mengaliran large
condensate and condensate transfer pump power required. The method used is primary
data collection topography condensate pipelines and pipeline arrangement condensate
transfer and secondary data such as density and viscosity condensate as supporting data
analysis. This study is limited to the analysis of the flow of condensate from Gatherer Gas
Station X to Y only. Based on the analysis of condensate flow continuity equation is
obtained  that  needs  head  condensate  amounted  to 88,799  m  and  pump  power
requirements transefer is equal to 2,256 kW.
