Project: Fire & Gas systems of South Pars Oil Layer (SPOL) offshore facilities
Location: The South Pars Field in the Persian Gulf
Client: PEDCO
Contract Type: Procurement
Started: 2010
Status: Completed

Project Summary

The South Pars Field is located in the Iranian sector of the Persian Gulf, approximately 100 km south-west of the Iranian cost. Development of this field will be executed in two phases; the First Phase will consist of up to 7 production wells and will utilize a dedicated floating production and storage facility (FPSO).

For Phase one which is under way, one new production and water injection wellhead platform will be installed. This will encompass 7 production wells, 2 water injections wells for future expansion, and 3 spare slots for production.

Individual flow lines will transport reservoir fluid from each Christmas tree to a production manifold on Wellhead Platform and then to an export riser and hence via sub sea pipeline to an FPSO (Production Facilities), for stabilization, dewatering, desalting and finally to be exported via shuttle tankers. The designated wellhead platform capacity will be 44,000 BLPD.



Scope of work

Scope of the project includes design, procurement, inspection, testing and delivery of Fire & Gas Detectors, including all required accessories necessary for the safe and satisfactory operation of the equipment in the offshore Platform of the Field as one of its major safety systems.

These Fire & Gas detectors are to be installed in the process area (Outdoor), which is considered as hazardous area and smoke detectors and Heat detectors will be installed in TR, which is considered a safe area. For standardization, all detectors shall be Explosion Proof (Flame Proof) EEx"d" design, suitable for installation in zone 1 area. All detectors, manual alarm call points, ESD Push buttons and devices suitable for zone 1 shall be designed and certified for Gas Group IIB, Temperature Class T3 according to IEC normalization
