Project Diamond

Pembina engaged Rangeland to increase flow-through capacity of the original process train at their Redwater facility. Our team evaluated the process conditions and ultimately recommended a combination of tower tray upgrades and reboiler modifications. The existing kettle type reboilers were replaced with vertical thermosyphon style requiring major infrastructure changes in both piping and structural elements. Significant hot oil system debottlenecking was required to provide the required heat duty including piping upgrades and system paralleling. Modular construction focus and a streamline integration is a key success in this project. Integrating the new equipment into the limited space was a complex endeavor; new reboiler equipment, in a new orientation, was significant challenge overcome Rangeland engineered the plant update as a modular design, minimizing service disruption and meeting the client’s strict two-week schedule

The facility design included:
•Frac debottleneck and retray-Production increase of 20 percent
•Detailed process design work evaluating a series of product compositions
•Validation of process design using HYSIS, VMG and HTRI software suites
•Modular piping and structural design
•Expansion of the heat medium and utility systems in complex brownfield environment

Rangeland Responsibilities:
•Front End Engineering Design (FEED)
•Class 3 estimate
•Detailed Engineering (DE)
•Procurement and expediting services
