Sulzer
will be presenting key technology trends and
innovations in the energy sector at Abu Dhabi
International Petroleum Exhibition and Conference (ADIPEC,
November 11-14, 2019, Abu Dhabi National Exhibition
Centre). As a one-stop-shop for advanced components,
solutions and services for oil and gas separation
processes, the company is leading the industry into
the future.
ADIPEC is a forum where business leaders and
policymakers can discuss the latest trends in the
oil and gas sector as well as shape the future of
this industry. Sulzer Chemtech, the leader in
separation and mixing technology, will contribute to
the discussion by presenting its innovations in the
field. These include the company’s comprehensive
product, licensing and service offering for the
upstream, midstream and downstream sectors.
Of particular interest to visitors will be Sulzer’s
increased capabilities in technology licensing and
process equipment technology, following the
acquisition of GTC Technology, global licensor of
process technologies and mass transfer solutions for
the oil and gas sector. In this way, customers will
benefit from a more comprehensive full-service
provider of mass transfer equipment, entire plants
and associated services.
Sulzer will also showcase its columns and vessels
for effective separation in upstream operations. The
range of high-performance and high-quality solutions
available are being adopted in an ever-growing
number of oil and gas fields, both onshore and
offshore. Recently, the company has won contracts
for the supply of mass transfer equipment in Marjan
and Berri Field Development projects in Saudi
Arabia.
Two pieces of equipment under the spotlight at
ADIPEC 2019 will be Compact Mass Transfer and Inline
Separation Technology (cMIST™) systems for natural
gas dehydration and electrostatic coalescer
internals for vessels (VIEC™) to remove free and
emulsified water in oil emulsions. Both solutions
outperform conventional technologies, maximizing
separation efficiency while substantially reducing
equipment footprint.
Attendees interested in optimizing their mixing
processes will be able to find out more about
Sulzer’s range of static mixers. These allow
businesses to obtain highly homogeneous substances
with extremely efficient, durable and reliable
systems. Consequently, quality and consistency can
be achieved with minimal operational and maintenance
costs.
Sulzer will also highlight the maintenance, repair
and revamp capabilities of its Tower Field Services
(TFS) group. This provides round-the-clock support
for quick turnarounds and emergency shutdowns.
Sulzer’s automated weld overlay technology for
example offers a durable and cost-effective method
to restore the mechanical integrity of columns and
vessels as well as improve their corrosion
resistance.
Visitors who want to learn more about Sulzer’s
column internal offering for separation processes in
oil and gas facilities will be able to experience
this via a virtual reality (VR) app. This will allow
users to walk around fullscale trays and learn about
their capabilities and applications.
