Daewoo Shipbuilding & Marine Engineering (DSME) awarded VWS MPP Systems, a subsidiary of Veolia Water Solutions & Technologies, a contract to supply a macro porous polymer extraction water purification (MPPE) unit for the Ichthys LNG project FPSO.
The INPEX-operated Ichthys LNG project will involve offshore preliminary processing of gas from the Ichthys Field to remove water and extract condensate before being transported to onshore LNG processing facilities in Darwin via an 889km pipeline. Most condensate will be sent to an in-field FPSO from which it will be shipped to market. The Ichthys LNG project is expected to produce 8.4MTPA of LNG and 1.6MTPA of LPG, along with approximately 100,000b/d of condensate at peak.
During the production of gas and condensate, formation and dehydration water is co-produced containing dissolved and dispersed aromatics, aliphatics and polyaromatic hydrocarbons. The MPPE technology is able to remove all of these toxic compounds securely and in a single process to comply with the strictest requirements. The fully automated MPPE unit is supplied in a skid mounted module.
