Atlas Copco has completed the manufacture, testing and shipment of two containerised instrument air packages for the Booster Station 2 project on Sakhalin Island, located between Japan and Russias eastern shoreline.

Each containerised package comprises a ZT75-10-50 oil-free, rotary screw compressor, desiccant air dryer complete with filtration, HVAC system to maintain container ambient between 0C to 25C, and an integrated control system for duty/standby operation. The units have been designed to operate in the most arduous conditions where the ambient outside temperature varies from -40C to +36C.

The instrument air compressor and dryer skid packages were assembled at Atlas Copcos custom engineering workshops, based at Hemel Hempstead, for the Fluor Corporation who commissioned the units on behalf of Sakhalin Energy Investment Company Ltd (SEIC). SEICs shareholders are Gazprom, Shell, Mitsui and Mitsubishi.

The whole project has been delivered on schedule within a 40-week programme. Its final destination is the Sakhalin II Project Onshore Processing Facility on Sakhalin Island.
