OVERVIEW OF THIEN UNG WELLHEAD PLATFORM DEVELOPMENT


Thien Ung Wellhead Platform (BK-TNG) is designed to handle total gas production from
Thien Ung field and associated gas from Dai Hung-02 platform transported via subsea
pipeline.
Phase 1 development involves installation of process and utility facilities sufficient for total
gas production from Thien Ung wells and associated gas from Dai Hung-02. During this
phase of production, Thien Ung high pressure full well stream from each production well
has enough flowing pressure to meet the required pressure at the export gas pipeline
without compression. Phase 1 production continues for approximately eleven years [ref. 4]
before the well pressure depletes further and the well production is unable to flow into the
export pipeline under its own flowing pressure.
The production facilities are designed to handle 2.048 MMSCMD with 10% margin of gas
production from Thien Ung filed and 1.0 MMSCMD of associated gas from Dai Hung-02.
Utility facilities installed on BK-TNG are designed to support the current production facilities
only. Phase 2 is considered from year 12th to end of production life and is not included in
FEED.
During phase 2, production gas of BK-TNG will be compressed prior to flow into the export
gas pipeline.

BRIEF PROCESS DESCRIPTION


The Thien Ung full well stream (FWS) from each production well starting from day one of
production life is letdown through choke valve and flows to Production Header via
production flowline. During well test, FWS from the test well is sent to the Test Header and
to the Test Separator where the stream is measured and checked for well performance.
The tested well fluid leaving the Test Separator is then combined and flows back to the
Production Header.
From Production Header, the well fluid is fed to a two phase Production Separator where
vapor is separated from liquid. Saturated vapor leaving the Production Separator is then
heated and combined with associated gas from Dai Hung-02 prior to be dehydrated in a
TEG based Gas Dehydration system. Liquid from the Production Separator is fed to
Condensate Dewatering Separator after necessary heating.
For initial few years of operation (when wellhead pressures are high), the achieved
temperature of the gas from the Production Separator after being reduced to Gas
Dehydration operating pressure is low enough to be in hydrate region. Therefore, an
electric Wet Gas Heater is provided to heat up the gas to avoid hydrate formation. Inlet
temperature to Gas Dehydration Unit after combining with Dai Hung gas is maintained at
least 5C above hydrate temperature or minimum 15C, whichever is higher. The Wet Gas
Heater also maintains the Thein Ung gas temperature atleast 5C above hydrate
temperature after PCV downstream of the heater before it mixes with DH gas.
Associated gas from Dai Hung-02 pipeline arrives at a range of 15-28C and 6.5 9.0 barg
[ref.7] and is fed to a two-phase Slug Catcher. Separated gas from the Slug Catcher is
metered and compressed to 30 barg, cooled to 50C and then combined with the heated
gas from the Production Separator prior to be dehydrated in the TEG system, which
operates at near 28 bar g. Separated liquid from the Slug Catcher is flown to the LP
Condensate Header to Closed Drain Vessel.
The Production Separator is operating approximately at slightly lower than well head
pressures from the seventh year to the eleventh production year [according to Thien Ung
production profile, ref. 4]. While during the first six production years, when the well fluids
have high flowing pressure [according to Thien Ung production profile, ref. 4], the
Production Separator is operating at approximately 65 bar g to optimize equipment and line
sizing throughout eleven production years for constrained platform layout/space. The
Condensate Dewatering Separator is maintained at a pressure of about 28 barg to enable
routing of generated flash gas to dehydration & export without the need for
compressing.The TEG based Gas dehydration system is operated at around 28 bar g to
ensure adequate pressure is available to export gas into the pipeline. Required export
pressure at BK-TNG platform is 25 bar g
The combined saturated gas from Production Separator, DH gas compressor and
Condensate Dewatering Separator is routed to TEG Contactor Inlet Scrubber to remove
entrained liquid prior to be fed to the TEG Contactor where the saturated gas is dried by
contacting with lean triethylene glycol (TEG). Dry gas from the TEG Contactor exchanges
heat with the hot lean TEG in Lean TEG/Dehydrated Gas Heat Exchanger to cool the lean
TEG that feeds to TEG Contactor. The dehydrated gas passes through a Gas Custody
Metering System prior to export. Rich TEG leaving at bottom of TEG Contactor is
regenerated in Glycol Regeneration System where water in rich TEG is stripped in TEG
reboiler and Stripping Column. The lean TEG is recycled back to TEG Contactor.
The separated condensate from Production Separator is heated by a Condensate/Water
Heater to ensure that temperature of the condensate at outlet of LCV downstream of the
Production Separator is 30C i.e. 6C above WAT to avoid wax formation. Separated

Condensate is filtered to remove solids and then fed to Coalescer where fine separation of
condensate and water takes place. Dewatered condensate is routed to a Condensate
Custody Metering System then spiked with the dehydrated gas to export. Exported gas is
transported via the 26-inch two-phase Nam Con Son 2 Pipeline to White Tiger field
facilities.
Produced water separated from the three-phase Condensate Dewatering Separator is
routed to the Produced Water Treatment System for removal of oil and grease in water to
less than 30 ppm to meet local environmental regulation prior to be discharged to sea.
Liberated gas from the three-phase separator is combined with the saturated gas from
Production Separator and DH gas compressor for dehydration.
Besides the process systems, appropriate utility systems such as Fuel Gas system, Flare
System, Drain System, Instrument/Utility Air System, Seawater System, Power Generation
System, Diesel System, Potable Water/Wash Water System, etc. are provided to support
the platform operation.

Note 1: For the platform design, compositions from Average BASE CASE are used. For
lower and higher cases, the compositions of other components are normalized equally to
achieve 100% total.
For material selection and corrosion rate calculations, average BASE CASE compositions
are used to achieve realistic corrosion rates and reasonable material selection. However,
Higher Case composition is also to be used as sensitive case to check corrosion rate and
material selection. A check case of material selection assuming that ten years of
production life correspond to Higher case composition and balance 15 years of production
life with Base Case composition shall be carried out as a sensitivity check

Pour point for Thien Ung wells is ranging from <-20 C to 18 C


Wax appearance temperature is assumed 24C
Other impurities in the well fluid are as follow:
i) Sulphur Compounds [Ref.1]
There is no significant H2S detected in any of the well tests. However, for design
purpose of material selection, maximum H2S content assumes to be 20 ppmv.
ii) Wax Content [Ref.1 ]
Thien Ung condensate has a high wax content of 1.6 - 13% mass. Refer also to Table
2.5 above.
iii) Mercury [Ref.1]
No significant mercury content was detected in any of the well test to date.
iv) Emulsion [Ref.1]
The Thien Ung fluid evaluations have been indicating low emulsion formation risk in
separation or in combination with other condensate. Provision to inject de-emulsifier
should be made as a precaution but usage is expected to be minimal or nil.
v) Scaling [Ref.1]
Water analysis and scale predictions have been showing the brine to be under-saturated
in calcium carbonate at higher pressure, becoming oversaturated at near atmospheric
pressure. Scale formation is believed unlikely to occur, with the lower pressure systems
at greatest risk.

No scale is, therefore, expected at downhole and no interventions are to be expected to


be required for scale. Provision should be made for scale inhibitor injection points
upstream of the separator to protect the downstream LP process equipment, if required.
vi) Foaming [Ref.1]
Thien Ung condensate has been evaluated as having low foam forming tendency, and it
is expected that antifoam injection is not required.
vii) Sand Production [Ref.1]
Studies have indicated a risk for low levels of solids production from wells during later
years of field life. The sand control philosophy is to manage sand down-hole through the
use of gravel packs or screens. There is a small risk that sand may accumulate in the
production separators during later years of field life. These vessels should therefore be
equipped with appropriate internal sand flushing and nozzles to enable sand handling
and flushing from the vessels during later years of field life.
Peak predicted sand loading is less than 130 litres/MMscm (16 - 17 lb/MMscf) which is
normally sand free. Acoustic non-intrusive solid detectors are required near the
wellheads.

PROCESS FACILITIES DESIGN BASIS


The key basis for the Process Systems design is listed below.

10.1

Well Flowlines and Headers


The well flowlines, production/test headers are subjected to SITHP of 406 bar absolute.
With this SITHP, the system is rated to API 10000 psi.
The production flowlines up to the last block valve to production and test header are rated
to API 10000 psi to withstand the SITHP; whereas the production header, test header and
associated piping are de-rated to ANSI 600 psi rating. Down-stream equipments are derated to ANSI 300 psi rating. Appropriate overpressure protection shall be designed for
headers to avoid overpressure by flowing wells.
All wells are designed to be equipped with self-equalized surface controlled sub-surface
safety valve (SCSSV). No SCSSV pressure equalized facility is required to be installed on
the topside of BK-TNG.

10.2

Well Testing
Well testing at BK-TNG platform shall be carried out by Test Separator. The Test
Separator for Thien Ung field is sized to handle the max individual well gas rate with
associated condensate and water.
Test Separator
-

Configuration : 1 x 100%

Type : 2 phase horizontal separator

Operating pressure :
65 barg during first 6 years
30 barg minimum from year 7th to year 11th
Operating pressure during year 12th to end of production life shall be determined in
phase 2

The Test Separator is designed to test only one well at a time

Capacity : Flow rate is based on the two largest wells:


Gas: 0.53 MMSCMD
Condensate: 63.8 SCMD
Water: 93.5 SCMD

10.3

Production Separation
Production Separator
Production Separator is designed to perform separation of 12 production wells FWS into
vapor and liquid streams.
-

Configuration : 1 x 100%

Type : 2-phase Vertical Separator

Operating pressure :
65 barg during first 6 years
2 3 bar less than wellhead pressures from year 7th to year 11th
Operating pressure during year 12th to end of production life shall be determined in
phase 2

Capacity: As per simulation case 4 for vapor section and case 2 for liquid section
Max vapor flow: 2.01 MMSCMD
Max liquid flow: 27.35 m3/h

Note: Separator shall be provided with internals for removal of sand and other solids by
washing with wash water. Provision of additional space for washing and sand separation
and sand handling equipment is to be considered.
-

Separator shall be designed with a maximum vapor k factor of 0.15 m/sec considering
vane pack
A minimum 3 minutes residence time on liquid shall be provided from normal liquid
level
Maximum liquid carry-over in the gas stream not exceed 0.1 USgal/MMSCF

Wet Gas Heater


Gas separated from Production Separator is heated in Wet Gas Heater. The heater is
envisaged to heat the Thien Ung gas adequately to ensure
a) Operating temperature remains above hydrate temperature in the complete
system
b) Inlet temperature to Gas Dehydration unit after combining with Dai Hung gas is
maintained at least 5C above hydrate temperature or minimum 15C,
whichever is higher
-

Configuration : 1 x 100%

Type : Electric

Process fluid temperature at outlet of heater : adequate to keep operating temperature


5C above hydrate temperature throughout the system and to maintain Gas
Dehydration Unit inlet temperature of combined gas at least 5C above hydrate
temperature or minimum 15C, whichever is higher

Capacity : 350 kW

Heater pressure drop : approximate 0.5 bar

Note:
Heating requirement is only expected during the first three years of operation when the
wellhead pressures upstream choke are high resulting in low gas temperature downstream
of choke.
Condensate-Water Heater
Separated liquid from Production Separator is heated in Condensate-Water Heater. The
heater is required to ensure
a)
b)

Condensate temperature is maintained above WAT


Effective separation of oil & water in the vessel

UTILITIES DESIGN BASIS


The key design basis for the Utilities Systems is listed below.

11.1

Closed Drain and Open Drain Systems


Two Drain Systems include: Closed Drain System and Open Drain System. Closed and
Open Drain Systems are segregated so that no possibility exists for system pressure to
cause backflow into the Open Drain System.
Continuous low pressure process drains are routed directly to the Closed Drain System in
order to contain any gas that might be blown through when draining of these facilities.
Maintenance drains from the pressurized process systems are also collected in the drain
header and routed to the Closed Drain System.
The Closed Drain System consists of following items:

Closed Drain Vessel


Closed Drain Vessel Pumps
Closed Drain Heater
Closed Drain headers

The separated gas from the Closed Drain Vessel is routed to the LP flare header. Liquid
collected from the Closed Drain System is pumped back to the 3-phase CondensateDewatering Separator. The closed drain header is segregated into different pressure
rating closed drain header depending on the pressure rating of upstream facilities.
An electrical heater is provided in the Closed Drain Vessel to heat up the sub-zero
fluid/wax formed in the drum due to low temperature from Joule-Thompson effect after
letting down through the pressure reducing devices (pressure relief valves, blowdown
valves, etc.).
The Open Drain System consists of the following items:

Open Drain Caisson


Open Drain Pump
Hazardous and non-hazardous open drain headers

Open Drain System is designed to collect hazardous and non-hazardous open drain
sources on BK-TNG. Hydrocarbon collected in the Open Drain System is pumped back to
the 3-phase Condensate Dewatering Separator. In case the collected hydrocarbon in the
caisson is relatively dirty or being contaminated, the hydrocarbon liquid is evacuated to
drain pots and is sent to onshore for safe disposal. Liberated gas from the Open Drain
Caisson is vented to atmosphere at safe location. Open drain system is designed in such
a way that hazardous and non-hazardous systems are always segregated.
Closed Drain Vessel
-

Configuration : 1 x 100%

Type : horizontal two-phase knock-out drum

Liquid capacity: to provide adequate residence time to continuous hydrocarbon


sources and to accommodate BK-TNG single largest liquid inventory from
maintenance drains ( of HP Flare KOD from LALL) between NLL to LAH of the

Diesel Fuel System


Diesel Fuel System is provided on BK-TNG to supply liquid fuel to the following users:

Emergency Generator
Diesel-driven Firewater Pumps
Crane diesel engines
Survival crafts

Diesel is supplied to the platform from onshore by boat. From the supply boat, raw diesel is
pumped to an atmospheric tank located in Crane Pedestal. Diesel is filtered by a Raw
Diesel Coarse Filter where all coarse solids are removed prior to be transferred to and
atmospheric storage tank.
Diesel Transfer Pump transfers diesel from the storage tank located in the crane pedestal
to the users. Diesel Filter Coalescers are provided at downstream of the transfer pumps to
filter diesel to meet the fuel requirement for users.
Diesel storage is based on five (5) days base load for full life support for maximum POB
during prolonged process shutdown. This means diesel is used to power the Emergency
Diesel Generator to provide power supply to personnel on the living quarters and control
room for life support and possible users on platform during maintenance activity.
