Sembcorp Marine subsidiary SMOP Pte Ltd have awarded Frames a contract for the supply of two seawater electrochlorination systems, one wellhead control panel complete with a hydraulic power unit, and three hydraulic power units for topside and subsea valves. The systems are designated for the Culzean gas field.
The seawater electrochlorination systems will play an effective role in optimizing the flow assurance of seawater that is being used for multiple purposes on both platforms. The restriction of seawater flows, corrosion, and the reduction in the overall lifespan of the process equipment can all be minimized by the effective design of a seawater electrochlorination system.
The systems also provide the most effective and environmentally safe method for the prevention of biofouling that would negatively affect the seawater systems within an offshore facility.
Sustainable oil and gas extraction and production require safe, reliable, and highly available systems and solutions. Therefore, the wellhead control panels and hydraulic power units that Frames is awarded for are vital elements in the main control and safety of the platform.
