Subsidiary company 'Ukrgazvydobuvannya' (National
Stock Company 'Naftogaz Ukrainy') put the installation of advanced
extraction of hydrocarbons into commission at Tymofiivka oil-gas-condensate
field. The field is part of Gadyach gas deposit that is serviced
by 'Poltavagazvydobuvannya' gas production department.
'Ukrgazvydobuvannya' company began construction of
the installation in March, 2004. Putting the installation into operation
was planned in forth quarter of 2004. The cost of construction makes
up 52 millions of Ukrainian gryvns. Pay-back period will not exceed
3 years. Financing of construction work at Tymofiivka field is realized
at the expense of own funds of the company. Building of the installation
of advanced extraction of liquid hydrocarbons was started for the
purpose of production of components of propane-butane fraction.
'Ukrgazvydobuvannya' company already exploits similar installation
at Solokha deposit.
At present time 612 tonnes of gas condensate are obtained
every 24 hours at Tymofiivka field. Gas condensate is pipelined
to Seleschyna condensate stabilization plant.
As the company notes, the implementation of high-productivity
technologies relative to gas and condensate conversion processes
is one of the priorities of 'Ukrgazvydobuvannya' company. Planned
production capacity of the installation will permit to produce 64’600
tonnes of liquefied gas and 46’600 tonnes of stable gasoline
every year directly at Tymofiivka field. It will save the funds
of the company that are expended now on transportation of gas condensate
to Seleschyna condensate stabilization plant.
REFERENCE. Tymofiivka oil-gas-condensate
field is characterized by high condensate content in natural gas.
Gas condensate is valuable raw material for production of liquefied
gas and stable gasoline. The field is exploited from 1978 and is
situated in western part of Dniepr-Donetsk Basin on territory of
Poltava region of Ukraine. For operating period of the field 2.9
million tonnes of gas condensate and 154 thousand tonnes of oil
was extracted. Today the production of gas condensate makes up 612
tonnes every day. Some portion of obtained gas is returned to geological
formation in cycling process mode for maintenance of reservoir pressure.
