Qadirpur gasfield
Encyclopedia
Qadirpur Gas Fieldis one of the major gas reserves of Pakistan
. The field is located at a distance of 8 km from Ghotki in Sindh Province.
Qadirpur Gas Field is a joint venture between Oil and Gas Development Company Limited (OGDCL), Kuwait Foreign Petroleum Exploration Company Pakistan B.V. (KUFPEC), PKP Exploration Limited (PKPEL, a subsidiary of Premier Oil Plc) and Pakistan Petroleum Limited (PPL). OGDCL is operating the field with 75 percent shares while PPL holds 7 percent working interest.
A total of 45 wells have been drilled in Qadirpur out of which 36 are currently producing. Drilling of additional development wells is planned to maintain gas supply to Sui Northern Gas Pipelines Limited (SNGPL).
A gas processing facility of 600 MMscfd has been installed at Qadirpur. In order to address declining reservoir pressures, gas compression facilities are being installed at the field to maintain sales gas supply at contractual delivery pressures. The facilities are expected to be commissioned by the second /third quarter of 2010.
The natural gas is purified by a membrane separation process that removes water vapor and carbon dioxide. The processing equipment was supplied by Honeywell’s UOP Separex™ Membrane Systems division. The process consists of ten trains of membrane skids, each containing many spiral-wound membrane elements.
During the second quarter of 2009-10, average daily sales from Qadirpur was 430 MMscfd purified gas and 25 MMscfd dehydrated gas, which is sold to SNGPL, 45 MMscfd raw gas sold to Liberty Power and 970 barrels of condensate. Additionally, 75 MMscfd permeate gas is planned to be supplied to Engro Power Limited from February 2010.
The field was developed in three phases, increasing its capacity to 500 MMSCFD
from an initial 235 MMSCFD. A project currently is in progress, and scheduled for completion by December 2007, to enhance sales to 600 MMSCFD from 500. Development drilling at Qadirpur is continuing to maintain the gas supply to Southern Natural Gas PL.
Average daily sales during third-quarter 2007 from the field was 495 MMscfd of purified gas, 35 MMscfd of raw gas, and 103 bbl of condensate.
