- Current
96
  Surface currents at Yadana are primarily influenced by wind, with a mean speed of 0.4 m/s and possible peaks reaching 2.0 m/s during steady Monsoon winds. However, these currents diminish rapidly with depth, with mean speeds near the seabed at approximately 0.15 m/s. The strongest currents generally originate from the northeast (N/E) and east (E), flowing in parallel with the local bathymetry.
97
 
98
  Tidal currents also play a significant role, particularly during spring tides, where maximum currents can reach around 0.5 m/s. These tidal currents flow perpendicular to the local bathymetry, resulting in four flow reversals each day (two floods and two ebbs), corresponding to flow directions of northwest (NW) and southeast (SE).

  Sea water temperature in the Yadana area exhibits seasonal variation, with lower temperatures typically observed from December to February and higher temperatures in May. Maximum water temperatures, around 30°C, occur during transition seasons between monsoons when there is less mixing. The average sea surface temperature ranges between 26°C to 30°C throughout the year.

  6. Produced Liquid Treatment, Drains and Dry Fuel Gas
 
767
  1. Production Expectations:
768
  • Reservoir gas is water saturated, and produced water mainly comes from condensation.
769
  • Free water production from the reservoir isn't expected until late in the field life during LP and LLP operations.
770
  • The water treatment facilities are designed for 1200 BWPD to account for free water production.
 
771
  2. Injection Facilities Operating Principles:
772
  • During normal operation, all produced liquids are routed to the PP condensate flash drum. Water is pumped out to the well under level control.
773
  • Downgraded operation scenarios involve routing produced liquid through the PP oily water treatment system if the well injectivity or capacity is reduced.
774
  • If the disposal well is unavailable, HC is stabilized, stored, and later disposed of at PLC, where it's burned.
 
775
  3. Water and Condensate Treatment:
776
  • Produced water is knocked out of the gas phase in the FWKO drums, separated, and returned to PP for further treatment.
777
  • Water undergoes treatment in the water flash drum before being fed to desanding and coalescing equipment.
778
  • Condensate from LCP, MCP, and PP vessels is routed to the condensate flash drum and reinjected into a disposal well.
779
  • A 500ppm biocide treatment is added as needed.
 
780
  4. Emergency Procedures and Monitoring:
781
  • During operations where produced water is discharged to the sea instead of re-injected, daily samples are collected and analyzed to ensure compliance with discharge specifications.
782
  • Monitoring and control of operations, such as pump status and manual interventions, are reported in the control room.

95
  2. General Data
96
 
97
 
98
+ Current:
99
  Surface currents at Yadana are primarily influenced by wind, with a mean speed of 0.4 m/s and possible peaks reaching 2.0 m/s during steady Monsoon winds. However, these currents diminish rapidly with depth, with mean speeds near the seabed at approximately 0.15 m/s. The strongest currents generally originate from the northeast (N/E) and east (E), flowing in parallel with the local bathymetry.
100
 
101
  Tidal currents also play a significant role, particularly during spring tides, where maximum currents can reach around 0.5 m/s. These tidal currents flow perpendicular to the local bathymetry, resulting in four flow reversals each day (two floods and two ebbs), corresponding to flow directions of northwest (NW) and southeast (SE).
 
105
 
106
 
107
 
108
+ Temperature:
109
  Sea water temperature in the Yadana area exhibits seasonal variation, with lower temperatures typically observed from December to February and higher temperatures in May. Maximum water temperatures, around 30°C, occur during transition seasons between monsoons when there is less mixing. The average sea surface temperature ranges between 26°C to 30°C throughout the year.
110
  The temperature variation with depth reveals three distinct water masses:
111
  • From the surface to 17 meters depth, the sea water temperature remains relatively stable at 28°C.

760
  5.5. Gas Export
761
+
762
  Gas export involves sending the dehydrated gas from both trains through various pipelines for both export and domestic use. Here are the key points:
763
  • Export Pipeline:
764
  • Dehydrated gas from both trains is sent through a 36" export gas subsea pipeline for export to Thailand and a 20” domestic gas pipeline via PLC (Kanbauk), as well as a 24" subsea pipeline for domestic gas via (Daw Nyein).
 
782
  • Overpressure Protection for Domestic Gas Line:
783
  • The 24” domestic gas manifold is equipped with FV-40139, operating in manual or automatic mode.
784
  • Two pressure sensors ensure overpressure protection, initiating shutdown of the inboard emergency shutdown valve ESV-40268 if the gas pressure increases.
785
+
786
  5.5.2 Pipeline Operation
787
  • Normal Operation: The offshore pipeline is operated under packed conditions with some margin to cope with unplanned shutdowns.
788
  • Emergency Shutdown: In case of an emergency shutdown on the Yadana offshore platform, packing valves at PLC are operated to de-pack the offshore pipeline. Priority flow is given to export to PTT if the shutdown duration exceeds expectations.
789
+
790
  5.5.3 Offshore/Onshore Nomination Change Coordination
791
  • Responsibilities: Onshore Site Manager and Pipeline Superintendent coordinate with offshore platform to meet daily nominations to PTT and MOGE.

804
  6. Produced Liquid Treatment, Drains and Dry Fuel Gas
805
+
806
  1. Production Expectations:
807
  • Reservoir gas is water saturated, and produced water mainly comes from condensation.
808
  • Free water production from the reservoir isn't expected until late in the field life during LP and LLP operations.
809
  • The water treatment facilities are designed for 1200 BWPD to account for free water production.
810
+
811
  2. Injection Facilities Operating Principles:
812
  • During normal operation, all produced liquids are routed to the PP condensate flash drum. Water is pumped out to the well under level control.
813
  • Downgraded operation scenarios involve routing produced liquid through the PP oily water treatment system if the well injectivity or capacity is reduced.
814
  • If the disposal well is unavailable, HC is stabilized, stored, and later disposed of at PLC, where it's burned.
815
+
816
  3. Water and Condensate Treatment:
817
  • Produced water is knocked out of the gas phase in the FWKO drums, separated, and returned to PP for further treatment.
818
  • Water undergoes treatment in the water flash drum before being fed to desanding and coalescing equipment.
819
  • Condensate from LCP, MCP, and PP vessels is routed to the condensate flash drum and reinjected into a disposal well.
820
  • A 500ppm biocide treatment is added as needed.
821
+
822
  4. Emergency Procedures and Monitoring:
823
  • During operations where produced water is discharged to the sea instead of re-injected, daily samples are collected and analyzed to ensure compliance with discharge specifications.
824
  • Monitoring and control of operations, such as pump status and manual interventions, are reported in the control room.
825
