Engineering Approach
FEEC built the process design basis from validated steady-state simulation, setting the compression duty needed to raise wellhead gas to pipeline export pressure and staging the train across the inter-stage pressures, with suction scrubbers and aerial inter-stage and discharge cooling sized for each stage.
Around the compressors, FEEC developed the supporting systems for sales-quality export gas — inlet separation, gas dehydration, fiscal metering, and the flare and relief network sized for the credible blocked-outlet and settle-out cases.
A Class 4 capital cost estimate was structured for client investment review, with a transparent breakdown across major equipment, modular piping, instrumentation, and electrical scope.
