At the start of any project, knowing if investment should be focused on buying new equipment or in modifying existing infrastructure is important as it saves
both resources and money.
For this project, a model was constructed of the existing compression facilities on Beryl A. After a very careful analysis of the system, MSE concluded that only 88% of Skene gas could be evacuated through existing compressors, therefore a new train was necessary.
By arriving at the right decision early in the study phase, Mobil were able to focus their efforts on the optimum solution.
