Atlas Copco Rental, a division of sustainable solutions provider Atlas Copco, has been contracted to supply a customised nitrogen (N2) solution to inert dangerous levels of hydrogen sulphide (H2S) during a sour crude oil loading project in Houston.
Equipment manufacturer Envent Corporation designed a scrubber system to scrub the potentially lethal H2S out of the vapour stream during regular scheduled loadings in Texas, but N2 was needed to inert the vapour stream prior to entering the scrubbing system.
As a solution, Atlas Copco configured a customised offer including a NGM 3000 N2 membrane on a trailer, three XRVS 1350s diesel-driven mobile air compressors, a receiver tank, berms and nine hoses that delivered 500-1,400 cubic feet per minute (cfm) of N2 at 100 pounds per square inch (psi) with purity above 95%.
