Nitrogen Generator for Natural Gas Extraction in Sichuan, China

Project Overview

Huatai supplied a KFD39-60 nitrogen generation system for a natural gas extraction project in Sichuan, China. The customer required a dedicated on-site nitrogen source for a new project, with the system configured around the specified nitrogen purity, flow rate, delivery pressure and continuous operating requirements.
The complete system covered compressed-air supply, air treatment, nitrogen generation, nitrogen buffering and Siemens PLC control. According to the available project record, the system has remained in operation for more than three years.

Nitrogen Requirements for the Natural Gas Project

The customer required an on-site nitrogen supply for a new natural gas extraction project in Sichuan. As no existing nitrogen source was available for the project, a dedicated nitrogen generation system was required to support continuous process operation.

The system configuration was based on the required nitrogen purity, flow rate and delivery pressure. The confirmed purity requirement was ≥99.9%. Final flow and delivery-pressure values should follow the approved project technical documents.

Project Requirements

  • On-site nitrogen generation for a new natural gas project
  • Continuous nitrogen supply/li>
  • Nitrogen purity: ≥99.9%
  • Fixed system configuration
  • Flow and pressure based on approved technical documents
  • Huatai configures nitrogen generators for oil and gas according to the specific process, required purity, flow rate, pressure, operating schedule and site conditions.

Why the KFD39-60 Was Configured for the Project

The KFD39-60 system was configured around the customer’s nitrogen purity, required capacity, delivery pressure and continuous operating conditions. These parameters also determined the compressed-air supply, air-treatment equipment and nitrogen buffer capacity required for the complete system.
For a natural gas extraction project, nitrogen flow must be evaluated at the specified purity and delivery pressure. Available site utilities and the operating schedule should also be reviewed before the final system configuration is approved.

Complete Nitrogen Generation Package

Huatai configured a complete nitrogen generation package covering compressed-air supply, air treatment, nitrogen separation, nitrogen buffering and automatic control. The supporting equipment was matched to the operating requirements of the KFD39-60 nitrogen generator.

System Configuration

  • 1. Air compressor/li>
  • 2. Air filtration system
  • 3. Refrigerated air dryer
  • 4. KFD39-60 nitrogen generator
  • 5. Nitrogen buffer system
  • 6. Siemens PLC control system
  • Process FlowAmbient Air → Air Compressor → Air Filtration → Refrigerated Air Dryer → KFD39-60 Nitrogen Generator → Nitrogen Buffer System → Natural Gas Extraction ProcessAutomatic ControlThe Siemens PLC manages the programmed operating sequence and valve switching. During normal operation, the nitrogen generator completes its operating cycles according to the configured control logic.Routine inspection and maintenance remain necessary for the air compressor, filters, dryer, nitrogen generator, valves and connected equipment.Key System Features
