Full Containment Storage Tank Modification and Export Project

This project focuses on upgrading and modifying existing full containment storage tanks to enable the safe and efficient storage of refrigerated propane, butane, and LNG for subsequent export through a dedicated plant jetty. The facility is strategically designed to utilize previously constructed containment tanks, ensuring optimal storage and handling of key hydrocarbon products prior to export.

In the current project phase, process trains have not been constructed, so refrigerated feedstock (propane and butane) is delivered directly to the battery limit from upstream sources. The facility’s tank farm includes:

  • Propane and butane tanks: Used for the dedicated storage of refrigerated butane and propane, ensuring safe handling and readiness for export.
  • One LNG tank: Modified to store refrigerated propane, leveraging LNG tank insulation and containment systems.
  • Two additional LNG tanks: Reserved for the storage of LNG fluid, supporting flexible product export operations via the plant jetty.

Engineering, Procurement, and Construction Scope

The primary objective of this project is to complete the detailed engineering design, procurement, and construction for all systems and components needed to adapt and upgrade the storage tanks and associated infrastructure for new operational requirements. The scope includes:

  • Submersible Pumps: Engineering and installation of advanced submersible pumps within the upgraded storage tanks, ensuring reliable and efficient product withdrawal and transfer operations.
  • Substation and Satellite Instrument House (SIH) Building: Construction of a dedicated electrical substation and instrument house for power supply, control, and automation of tank farm operations.
  • Pipe Racks: Design and implementation of new pipe racks to safely and efficiently route pipelines between tanks, pumps, utilities, and the plant jetty.
  • LPG Flare System: Development and integration of a dedicated LPG flare system for safe handling of excess or emergency vented gases, ensuring environmental compliance and operational safety.

All project activities are executed according to international standards for storage, safety, and environmental performance, supporting reliable export of refrigerated hydrocarbons from the facility.

Contract Time Period

The engineering, procurement, and construction phases for the tank modification and export storage project are scheduled from December 2022 to June 2024, ensuring a timely and coordinated project delivery.
