Momentum Engineering has been awarded a detailed design contract by APA Group for two Solar Centaur 50 compressor station expansion projects in the eastern states of Australia.

The compressor station projects are being developed using Momentum Engineering’s experience and work previously performed for APA on the Wyloo West and Neds Creek compressor station developments during 2008 and 2009. In addition, Momentum Engineering is working on the design of the two stations concurrently to provide APA with a standard project template within a tight schedule and a cost-effective solution.

Momentum Engineering is also progressing the engineering for a gas and condensate plant, to be located near Gingin, Western Australia, for Empire Oil & Gas.

The plant will initially be designed to produce up to 10 million cubic feet per day (MMcf/d) of gas and 500 barrels per day (bbl/d) of condensate with the provision for an additional train to increase capacity to 20 MMcf/d of gas and 1,000 bbl/d of condensate.

The plant location will take into consideration the existing Gingin West-1 and Red Gully-1 wells and ensure the well sites are clear for future drilling operations.

The design of the facility is dependent upon whether gas is transported by the Parmelia or Dampier to Bunbury Natural Gas pipelines – both pipelines are located 2.4 km from the proposed plant site.
