Post riser packed shutdown optimization
Learn how a focused change in reinjection compressor pressure optimization, driven by Shape Aura's recommendation, reduced energy consumption and enhanced overall performance in the gas plant.
On July 4th, 2024, after a riser packed shutdown, an instability at Reinjection compressor Pd was noticed.
As a result, when the compressor stabilized on July 5th, 2024, in lower pressures, Shape Aura issued recommendation #147 to increase the discharge pressure to a more optimal operating point.
On July 6th, 2024, the operational adjustments outlined in recommendation #147 were initiated. The operational team successfully implemented the recommendation without any issues, achieving flawless execution.

Given the interconnected nature of the gas plant, it's important to assess whether the recommendation had any impact on other parts of the system, despite being specifically focused on the reinjection discharge pressure. The results indicate that recommendation #147 from Shape Aura successfully contributed to overall energy improvements in the unit's gas plant, without affecting other sections of the chain. The recommendation led to an average energy consumption reduction.
