Project Profile: Cleaning and Inspection of Gas Oil Separation Plant
Key Project Details
- Project Name: Cleaning and Inspection of Gas Oil Separation Plant (Train 1 & Train 2)
- Core Objective: To prepare the GOSP processing trains to be ready for an immediate commercial and operational resume.
- Scope of Work: Chemical and mechanical internal cleaning of vessels, non-destructive testing (NDT), structural assessment, and system recertification.
- Technology Deployed: Advanced Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) tools and specialized industrial cleaning equipment.
- Operational Impact:
Eradicated years of stagnant debris and chemical scales from processing vessels.
Cleared both GOSP production trains for immediate introduction of live hydrocarbons.
- Â
RIDA T.S. deployed a multidisciplinary mechanical, electrical, and inspection team to work inside a highly constrained timeline. Through deep internal vessel cleanings and advanced structural checks, the integrity of the aging GOSP assets was completely validated, allowing a flawless plant restart.
Products & Services Used:
Inspection Testing: NDT equipment including ultrasonic wall-thickness gauges and magnetic particle inspection kits.
Turnaround Management: High-velocity flushing units, specialized protective gear, and environmentally safe cleaning agents.
Post-Project Impact: The successful turnaround restored full separating capacity across Trains 1 and 2. The operator resumed commercial production with confidence, knowing the mechanical integrity of their plant met all safety requirements.
