Salman Oil and Gas Integrated Development Project


Petroiran Development Company (PEDCO) intends to further develop the Salman fields through execution of the Salman Oil and Gas Integrated Development Project. The Salman field is located some 144 km South of Lavan Island in Iranian waters of the Persian Gulf and straddles the Iran-Abu Dhabi border.

O.U. complex in Iranian waters of the Persian Gulf. The Salman Oil and Gas field Integrated Development project has been conceived for the expansion of current oil production at Salman and exploitation of the gas and condensate reservoir located at Dalan complex. When the project is implemented the entire facility must be capable of increasing the oil production by 50,000 BOD and producing and transporting 540 MMSCFD of export quality gas to an onshore Gas Refinery Plant in Assaluyeh.

The project is to be implemented by the following three EPC Packages:

  • EPC 1 : Wellhead Platform Jackets;
  • EPC 2 : New Platforms and bridges (excluding the wellhead platform jackets), inclusive of wellhead platform topsides;
  • EPC 3 : New Pipelines and Submarine Cables

2)    Eleven new oil gathering pipelines (10 and 8 inch ND) from existing designated tripods to New Riser Platform PP3 at Salman Complex;

3)    Two new 20 inch gas gathering pipelines from new 2SKB and 2SKC Platforms to new KPP at the Dalan Complex designed to account for well shut-in pressure condition;

4)    One 6 inch gas condensate pipeline from Dalan KPP to Riser Platform PP3 at Salman;

5)    One 14 inch associated gas pipeline from existing Salman NGP to Dalan KPP;

6)    One 36 inch Gas Flare pipeline with 2 inch piggy back pilot gas line from Dalan KPP to a Flare Platform FPP approximately 0.70 km South of KPP;

7)    Three 6KV submarine power cable combined with fibre-optic cables, between Dalan KPP Platform and 2SK-B, 2SK-C and Salman GLP Platforms.

8)    One 1KV submarine power cable for Gas Flare Pilot between Dalan KPP Platform and Flare Platform FPP.

9)    13 No.s of tripods structures inspection to define extent of modifications, stability check of tripods and installation of new piping manifolds and structural modifications if necessary.

10) Baisc Engineering  & Survey of the new pipeline route from Salman gas fields  to Sirri Island and from the Island to AP platform of Mobarak field of UAE.

11) Basic Engineering of Gas Compression Facilities at Sirri Island.

12) Detial Design of the  GasCompression Facilities at Sirri Island.

 

Major Activities of the Salman EPC-3  Project consisted of:

 

  • Engineering for structural refurbishment of existing tripod platform has been carried out at Engineering Department of Amid Engineering & Deveopment Co.
  • Basic Design, Offshore Surveying, Inspection Surveying & Detail Design of the project was carried out by different international consultants under direct Supervision of Engineering Department of Amid Engineering & Development Co.
  • All fabrication and work related to pipeline are being carried out in IOEC yard of Khoramshahr.
  • The Installation of 30″ Export Gas Line are being carried out directly by IOEC.
Installation of infield gas line are being carried out by internatinal Contractor under direct Supervision of IOEC & Amid Consortium.
