SHELL-Pearl, world’s largest GTL plant
Pearl GTL is a gas to liquids (GTL) project based in Ras Laffan, Qatar. It will convert natural gas into liquid petroleum products. When constructed, it will be the largest GTL plant in the world. De Jong Combustion is providing seventeen (17) duct burner installations.
The installation for the Shell Pearl project consists of:
- Six (6) gas turbine installations (GT), each feeding a heat recovery steam generator (HRSG). Two (2) of these installations are provided with a bypass stack.
- Two (2) HRSG’s that are auxiliary fired by using two (2) FA fans (2 x 60%) per HRSG. These HRSG’s are provided with an SCR to maintain the guaranteed NOx emissions.
- One (1) Fired superheater which is auxiliary fired by using two (2) FA fans (2 x 60%).
This fired superheater is provided with an SCR to maintain the guaranteed NOx emissions.
The GT fired HRSG’s and the FA fired HRSG’s are provided with two duct burners in series (DB-1 and DB-2) per HRSG. The fired super heater is provided with one duct burner (DB-1) only.
The duct burner systems (DB-1 and DB-2) are used for supplementary firing with three types of natural gas, five types of HOG gas or a mixture of these gases.
