Project Description:
The Abpakh Gas Pressure Boosting Station is located along the largest sour gas transmission pipeline in the world. This station, together with three other stations, is responsible for transporting sour gas (100) from phases 6, 7, and 8 of the South Pars gas field to revive the oil wells in the Aghajari oil field. The pipeline is 504 kilometers long and 56 inches in diameter. The station is known as D DID, starting from Asaluyeh and ending at Sardasht Pressure Boosting Station.
 
Technical Specifications:
The project includes construction of foundations and steel structures of buildings, installation of cable trays and piping in service buildings, ventilation systems, grounding, intelligent system 1 10, CCTV system, and addressable fire alarm and suppression systems.
Mechanical installations include turbo compressors and all auxiliary equipment such as air filters, gas coolers, air coolers, air compressors, and tanks.
Due to the sensitivity of the project (inhalation of 1,000,000 ppm sour gas can cause death within less than one minute), the design was specially planned. This company executed over 350 concrete piles at depths of 35 meters with diameters of 1 and 2 meters, constructed all buildings as explosion-proof, and completed piping works including all gas pipelines up to 605 mm thickness. All lines of the project were tested and commissioned.
 
This project was delivered in 2011.
