FEED for Upgradation of Propane Truck Loading System in NGL Plant in Mesaieed, Qatar

The objective of the Project is to upgrade the existing propane truck loading system by replacing the weighbridge and associated instrumentation and control to provide a safe, reliable and accurate tanker loading facility.

The propane truck loading facility is provided for the sale and export of propane from the NGL Plants. This facility is located within the MIC and South of the NGL plants. The facility comprises of Propane Storage Vessel V-2601 (approximately 58 m3 capacity) in which propane extracted at the NGL Plants is stored. A propane loading pump P-2609 with a rated capacity of approximately 20 m3/hr is provided to transfer liquid propane into propane trucks parked on the weighbridge.

The proposed facility shall include, but not necessarily limited to the following:

  • Replacement of the existing weighbridge and associated facilities with a new weighbridge and associated facilities.
  • New air-conditioned operator shelter, to accommodate all necessary equipment for propane loading and sales, for the safe supervision and control of loading operations.
  • Utilities and electrical power for the new loading system and operator shelter.
  • Upgradation of the existing fire protection systems including the deluge system, fire and gas system and safety equipment.
  • Temporary loading facility located in the vicinity with loading hoses and necessary fire and safety protection systems, to enable loading of tankers during the implementation stage of the EPIC contract.
