THE CHALLENGE
How Aggreko reduced costs, enhanced efficiency and met regulations
The goal is simple. Reducing costs and improving efficiency of oil & gas operations all while reducing emissions as part of the World Bank’s Zero Routine Flaring by 2030 (ZRF).
With one of the biggest oil fields in the western desert, our customer has a goal to reduce flaring by 40% in Egypt and required an efficient innovative solution to inch closer to the goal in line with their long-term strategy.
Operating with scattered diesel generators over every single well and when gas capacity is reached, the only solution is to shut in production or send excess gas to flare, the result is significant costs to electrify the production field and an impact on the environment through the emission of CO2, black carbon, and other pollutants. Also, it is wasting a valuable energy resource that could be used to advance the sustainable development of Egypt.

THE SOLUTION
A bespoke package, leaving nothing out
As their existing power partner, we were first in line to offer support. Following extensive consultations and the results from the gas analysis extracted from site by Aggreko’s Gas Chromatograph. We were confident that we had a compelling environmental, technical and commercial solution.
We proposed a solution to help reduce emissions and improve operations supporting our customer’s Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) goal of reducing routine flaring in upstream operations in Egypt and eliminate 1 million tonnes of CO2 from its operations in three years.
