1. INTRODUCTION
PT Medco E&P Indonesia is planning to supply gas to PLTG
Keramasan. The supplied gas will be tied in from existing 6 pipeline
from Simpang Keramasan to PLTG Keramasan. For future additional
gas supply, 8 pipeline will be installed parallel with the existing 6
pipeline by Pertamina. In order to achieve delivered gas minimum
specification, PT Medco E&P Indonesia is planning to install a receiving
facility in the downstream of the pipeline. This receiving facility will have
functions i.e. separate liquid (condensate and water) from the gas,
minimize liquid particle diameter and measure the supplied gas for
billing purpose. This receiving facility will be named as Keramasan Gas
Receiving Facilities.
This document provides information relevant to process design basis for
Keramasan Gas Receiving Facilities.

5. FACILITIES DESCRIPTION
5.1. Process Facilities
Keramasan process facilities consist of Gas Scrubber, Gas Filter, Metering
System, Condensate System and Flare System.
a. Gas Scrubber
Keramasan Gas Receiving Facilities receives gas from the existing 6
diameter and 3.3 km length Simpang Keramasan Keramasan pipeline
with incoming pressure of 450, approximately. The pressure of gas will be
reduced to 300 370 psig using pressure control valve before enter to gas
scrubber. Gas enters gas scrubber for gas-liquid separation process. The
function of this gas scrubber is to remove entrained liquid from the gas
stream. The gas product will pass through the top this vertical separator
with mist extractor and the design pressure is 700 psig and 160F.

b. Gas Filter
Gas from the top of gas scrubber will enter gas filter. The function of this
filter is to achieve the diameter requirement. The filtration efficiency is 99%
removal droplet @ 0.5-micron maximum solid & liquid. The gas outlet gas
filter is sent to the metering system for further handling. Design pressure
of gas filter is 700 psig @ 160F.
c. Metering System
The gas outlet filter is then measured at a gas metering system before
transferred to PLTG Keramasan. The metering system used for this
measurement is custody metering system type complete with gas
chromatography and moisture analyzer. The metering installation shall
follow AGA-3 requirement and the gas chromatography shall follow AGA-8
requirement. Design pressure of Gas Metering is 700 psig @ 160F.
d. Condensate System
Page 7 of 11

KELSRI

DESIGN BASIS
0708-R-RE-001

This system consists of condensate drum and recovery pump. Liquid

product from gas scrubber, gas filters and others will be sent to KO Drum
before transferred and stored to condensate drum. After the liquid
maintain a specific level at condensate drum, the liquid is then pumped to
an unloading truck using recovery pump.
e. Drain System
Closed drain system shall be provided to collect the entire hydrocarbon
inventory for disposal. Low point drain connections are provided at Gas
Scrubber, Filter, and Condensate Tank. Closed drain system consist of
closed drain line, header and pond.
An open drain system is also provided to collect the wash water in the
facilities areas. These are routed to the rainwater collection that completed
with control box.
f.

Flare System
Flare system is provided for safe disposal of waste hydrocarbon vapour
which are generated during plant upset, emergency and shut down
condition. Flare system consist of a flare header, flare KO drum (horizontal
type, without mist extractor), flare KO drum pump, and multiple-jet
enclosed flare complete with a flare ignition system. Flare gas is released
to flare header through Pressure Control Valve (PCV), or blow down
during emergency.

Flare gas is then sent to flare K.O. drum for liquid-gas separation. Liquid
product, drain, is transferred to condensate system using flare KO drum
pump.

5.2. Utilities
Utilities for Keramasan Receving Facilities consist of compressed air system,
electricity power, fresh water and fire safety system.
a. Compressed Air System
Compressed air system is used to produce clean, oil free and dry air for
instrument air, utility air and diaphragm pump driven. This system consists
of air compressors, air dryers and air receiver. Ambient air is compressed
using air compressor to produce compressed air. The compressed air is
then dehydrated in the air dryer. The air dryer is used to separate
Page 8 of 11

condensed moisture from the compressed air. Dry air is then stored at air
receiver for instrument air, utility air and air pump driver purpose.
b. Electric Power
Main electric power will be provided by PT. PLN (Persero). Emergency
electric power will be provided by the power plant contractor, PT. Asta
Keramasan Energy. UPS shall be provided for temporary power supply to
the metering system in case of power loss.
c. Utility Water
Water is used for utility purpose. A deep well be used for fresh water
source and shall be provided with water tank and plumbing system.
d. Fire Safety System
Fire safety system shall be provided for both light and heavy fire fighting.
Fire safety system for light fire case is provided by portable gas fire
extinguishers. Fire safety system for heavy fire case is provided by fusible
loop. This loop is connected with ESD system. When heavy fire case
occurs in Keramasan Gas Receiving Facilities, fusible loop will trigger
ESD system to shut down the facility.

6. DESIGN CRITERIA
