Client: Cameron International Corporation for bpTT
Tucked away from busy roads and communities on Trinidad’s south eastern peninsula, sits BP Trinidad and Tobago’s Terminal facility at Galeota Point in Guayaguayare. This liquid processing plant handles condensate delivered from the Beachfield gas processing and distribution plant, as well as the condensate and crude oil mixture from offshore platforms.
Condensate (liquid hydrocarbons that sometimes come up with the gas) from the facility is pumped in batches from Beachfield through a 6″ pipeline at rates of up to 250 gallons per minute. Crude oil is stored in five storage tanks. Saleable oil is periodically loaded from the storage tanks to tankers for export.
The Galeota Point Terminal has two processing plants, a crude oil plant (COP) and a stabilization plant (STAB). The COP processes liquids coming from the TSP (Teak, Samaan and Poui) and CIFK (Cassia, Immortelle, Flamboyant and Kapok) fields.
When one of the processing facilities needed a centrifuge to process effluent, Broadbent was approached and selected to supply a new, high speed TB325 solid bowl decanter centrifuge to ensure efficient and consistent results for bpTT.
