Ukwandiswa kwenkundla kaphethiloli i-Baleine yase-Côte d'Ivoire ukuthi ifinyelele amabhele angu-150,000 ngosuku ekukhiqizeni olwandle

I-Côte d'Ivoire isisheshisa ukuthuthukiswa kwayo kukaphethiloli negesi olwandle, okulindeleke ukuthi luqinise kakhulu isikhundla sayo njengenye yezimakethe ezikhula kakhulu zikaphethiloli negesi e-West Africa. Amaphrojekthi abalulekile okuthuthukiswa olwandle ayaqhubeka, imisebenzi emisha yokumba ihleliwe, futhi imizamo isenziwa ukuze kukhuliswe izindlela zokuxhasa ngemali amaphrojekthi kulo lonke izwekazi lase-Afrika.

Phakathi komhlangano obalulekile obubanjelwe e-Abidjan, i-African Energy Chamber (AEC) kanye nezikhulu zoMnyango Wezimayela, U kaphethiloli kanye Namandla we-Côte d'Ivoire babuyekeze amaphrojekthi okuthuthukiswa aqhubekayo futhi baxoxisana ngamasu okuheha utshalomali olwengeziwe emkhakheni wangaphandle lolwandle wezwe.

Inhliziyo yemibono yokukhula kwe-Côte d'Ivoire iphrojekthi yokuthuthukiswa kwenkundla iBaleine, eqhutshwa yi-Eni ngokubambisana nePetroci neVitol. Isigaba sesithathu sokuthuthukiswa kulindeleke ukuthi sikhuphule ukukhiqizwa sibe cishe amabhalela angu-150,000 ngosuku, ngenkathi siqhubeka nokuhlinzeka ngegesi yemvelo ehambisana nayo emakethe yamandla asekhaya.

Abalawuli baphinde bagqamise imisebenzi ezayo yokuguguleka emabhuloki aseceleni kwezwe. I-VAALCO Energy kanye nomlingani wayo i-CNR International balungiselela ukwethula imisebenzi emisha yokuguguleka ebhulokini i-CI 40 njengengxenye yohlelo olubanzi lokuthuthukiswa kabusha nokwenza ngcono ukukhiqizwa.

I-Murphy Oil nayo iyaqhubeka nezinhlelo zayo zokuhlola ngaphandle kweCôte d’Ivoire, okuhlanganisa nomkhankaso wokuguguleka kwemithombo eminingi okuhloswe kuyo izindawo iCivette, Caracal kanye neBubale. Izwe liphinde laheha intshisekelo entsha kubaqhubi bamazwe omhlaba njengePetrobras, esanda kuthola amabhulokhi amaningana okuhlola ngaphandle.

UNJ Ayuk, Usihlalo Omkhulu we-African Energy Chamber, uthe umkhakha we-upstream e-Côte d’Ivoire awubonisi intuthuko encane kodwa ukushesha okucacile; ngemiklamo emikhulu ethuthukayo, ukuhlola okusha okungena esigabeni kanye nezinhlaka zezimali ezithatha isimo, izwe lizibeka njengelinye lamazwe athandwa kakhulu e-Afrika lapho kungatshelwa khona imali emandleni.

Izingxoxo ziphinde zachaza intuthuko ekusungulweni kwe-Africa Energy Bank, uhlelo oluhlose ukuthuthukisa ukufinyelela ezimalini zemiklamo yamandla kulo lonke elase-Afrika. Ngokombiko wabahlanganyeli, imizamo yokwenza isikhungo sisebenze iyaqhubeka, nenhloso yokusekela kokubili ukutshalwa kwezimali komphakathi kanye nezizimele ekuthuthukisweni kukaphethiloli negesi ez kontinentini.

Ngaphandle kokukhula kwe-upstream, ababambiqhaza babuyekeze izinhlelo zokwandisa umthamo wokucwengwa kanye nokuqinisa ukubamba iqhaza kwendawo ochungechungeni lwezinto zamandla, okubandakanya ukwesekwa okukhulu ezinkampanini zezinsizakalo zendawo kanye nezinhlelo zokuthuthukisa abasebenzi.

Izinto zakamuva zigcizelela indima ekhulayo ye-Côte d’Ivoire njengesikhungo sesifunda sokuhlola nokukhiqiza ngaphandle kolwandle, njengoba abasebenzisi beqhubeka nokuqhubekisela phambili amaphrojekthi amasha futhi bandise imisebenzi ezindaweni ezahlukene zasolwandle zezwe.

Ukuphuma kukaphethiloli negesi yemvelo akunakwenzeka ngaphandle kwemishini yokuhlukanisa.

I-Shanghai SAGA Offshore Engineering Co., Ltd., eyasungulwa e-Shanghai ngo-2016, iyibhizinisi lobuchwepheshe lesimanje elihlanganisa i-R&D, ukuklama, ukukhiqiza, kanye nenkonzo. Sizinikele ekuthuthukiseni imishini yokuhlukanisa nokuhlunga yemboni kawoyela, igesi, kanye ne-petrochemical. Uhlu lwethu lomkhiqizo ophumelela kakhulu luhlanganisa ama-hydrocyclone okukhipha uwoyela/amanzi, ama-desander ezinhlayiya ezincane kakhulu, kanye namayunithi okuhlanganisa aqinile. Sinikeza izixazululo eziphelele ezifakwe ezindaweni eziqondile futhi sinikeza nokulungiswa kabusha kwemishini yenkampani yangaphandle kanye nezinsizakalo zangemuva kokuthengisa. Sibambe izimvume eziningi ezingokwethu futhi sisebenza ngaphansi kwesistimu yokuphatha eqinisekiswe yi-DNV-GL ISO-9001, ISO-14001, kanye ne-ISO-45001, siletha izixazululo zenqubo ezithuthukisiwe, ukuklama komkhiqizo okunembayo, ukugcinwa ngokuqinile kwezicaciso zobunjiniyela, kanye nokwesekwa okuqhubekayo kokusebenza.

Yethu ama-desander e-cyclone asebenza kahle kakhulu, ezaziwa ngesilinganiso sazo esihle kakhulu sokuhlukanisa esingu-98%, zithole ukubuyekezwa okuvela kubaholi bamandla aphesheya kwezilwandle. Zakhiwe ngezinto ezisezingeni eliphezulu ezimelana nokuguga, lezi zinhlelo zikwazi ukususa 98% wezinhlayiya ezincane njengama-0.5 microns emifudlaneni yegesi. Leli khono lenza ukuthi igesi ekhiqiziwe ingene kabusha ukuze kusetshenziswe i-miscible flooding emakhemikhweni anomoya ophansi, isixazululo esibalulekile sokuthuthukisa ukubuyisa uwoyela kumalungiselelo anzima. Kungenjalo, zingakwazi ukwelapha amanzi akhiqiziwe, zikhiphe u-98% wezinhlayiya ezinkudlwana kunama-2 microns ukuze zingene kabusha ngqo, ngaleyo ndlela zikhuphule ukusebenza kahle kokugeleza kwamanzi ngenkathi kuncishiswa umthelela emvelweni.

Umkhiqizo wethu omusha—I-High Efficiency Ultra-Fine Particle Desander iyidivayisi yokuhlukanisa uketshezi-okuqinile esebenzisa isimiso esisebenza kahle se-centrifugal ukuhlukanisa izinto ezingcolile ezintantayo—njengezinto eziqinile emanzini akhiqiziwe, emanzini olwandle, ku-condensate, izinhlayiya ezinhle eketshezini elinokujiya okuphezulu, kanye nomgubo we-catalyst kuma-reactor—kusuka eketshezini (uketshezi, igesi, noma ingxube yegesi-uketshezi). Iyakhipha kahle izinhlayiya eziqinile ezinosayizi abangafika ku-2 microns (ngokusebenza okungu-98%) noma ngaphansi.

I-High Efficiency Ultra-Fine Particle Desanderiletha ukusebenza kahle kakhulu ekususeni isihlabathi, ikwazi ukususa izinhlayiya eziqinile ezifika ku-2 microns. Imishini inesakhiwo esincane, ayidingi amandla angaphandle noma izithako zamakhemikhali, futhi inomjikelezo wokuphila cishe iminyaka engu-20. Inikeza amandla okukhipha isihlabathi ku-inthanethi ngaphandle kwesidingo sokuyeka ukukhiqiza.

Kufakazelwe emikhakheni emikhulu yomhlaba ephethwe yi-CNOOC, CNPC, Petronas, nabanye kulo lonke elaseNingizimu-mpumalanga ye-Asia, ama-desander e-SAGA afakwa emapulatifomu e-wellhead nasepulatifomu yokukhiqiza. Ahlinzeka ngokususwa okuthembekile kwezinto eziqinile kuwo igesi, uketshezi lokukhiqiza, ne-condensate, futhi abalulekile ekuhlanzweni kwamanzi olwandle, ekuvikelweni komjikelezo wokukhiqiza, nasezinhlelweni zokujova/ukuphuphuma kwamanzi.

Ngaphandle kwama-desander, i-SAGA inikeza iqoqo lobuchwepheshe bokuhlukanisa obunconywayo. Umugqa wethu womkhiqizo uhlanganisaizinhlelo zamamembrane zokukhipha i-CO₂ egazini lemvelo, ama-hydrocyclone okhipha amafutha, amayunithi okuhlanganisa okusezingeni eliphezulu (CFUs), ukukhipha isihlabathi ku-shale gas, Iphakethe lokukhipha amanzi nge-cyclonic elokwelapha amanzi akhiqiziwe, futhi ama-hydrocyclone anezimfihlo eziningi, ahlinzeka ngezixazululo eziphelele zezinselelo ezinzima kakhulu zemboni.
