據(jù)全球能源新聞網7月4日報道，近日，貝克休斯和埃及通用石油公司（EGPC）的子公司Petrosafe宣布了一項合同，這將標志著貝克休斯的flare.IQ技術首次部署在埃及的煉油廠作業(yè)中，以幫助減少石油和天然氣燃燒作業(yè)的排放。

這一更廣泛的燃燒回收合作伙伴關系的初始階段將在亞歷山大的APC煉油廠實施。埃及石油和礦產資源部旨在減少排放，提高油氣作業(yè)效率，這是其減少該行業(yè)溫室氣體排放的宏偉目標的一部分。

甲烷是最有害的排放形式之一，在20年的時間里，其危害是二氧化碳的86倍。在整個油氣行業(yè)，燃燒氣體的不完全燃燒是甲烷排放的主要來源之一。通過使用貝克休斯旗下公司Panametrics的flare.IQ技術，EGPC將進一步使其排放管理基礎設施數(shù)字化并獲取有關其燃燒系統(tǒng)的關鍵信息，通過確保更高效率的燃燒率來顯著減少排放。

該合同的簽訂正值埃及準備在11月主辦第27屆聯(lián)合國氣候變化大會并為全球甲烷承諾作出貢獻的重要時刻。

該合同遵循兩家公司于2022年2月簽署的諒解備忘錄。貝克休斯與EGPC之間的合作旨在建立和推動燃燒回收計劃，以支持埃及上游和下游油氣業(yè)務的排放回收和減少。

作為貝克休斯氣候技術解決方案產品組合一部分的flare.IQ技術快速、準確、可靠、易于部署且具有成本效益。其在優(yōu)化燃燒作業(yè)、實現(xiàn)蒸汽節(jié)約和顯著減少甲烷排放方面有著良好的記錄。

BAKER HUGHES WILL DEPLOY FLARE.IQ TO REDUCE EMISSIONS FROM FLARING OPERATIONS IN EGYPT

Baker Hughes and Petrosafe, a subsidiary of the Egyptian General Petroleum Corporation (EGPC) announced a contract that will mark the first deployment of Baker Hughes’ flare.IQ technology in refinery operations in Egypt to help reduce emissions from oil and gas flaring operations.

This initial phase of a broader flare recovery partnership will be implemented at the APC Refinery in Alexandria. The Egyptian Ministry of Petroleum and Mineral Resources (MoPMR) aims to reduce emissions and improve the efficiency of oil and gas operations as part of its ambitious aim to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from this sector.

Methane is one of the most harmful forms of emissions, 86 times more potent than carbon dioxide over a 20-year period. Incomplete combustion of flared gas is one of the major source of methane emissions across the oil and gas industry. By using flare.IQ technology from Panametrics, a Baker Hughes business, EGPC will further digitalize its emissions management infrastructure and pull critical information about its flare systems, substantially reducing emissions by ensuring a higher-efficiency flare combustion rate.

The contract comes at a significant moment as Egypt prepares to host the 27th UN Climate Change Conference (COP 27) in November and contributes to the Global Methane Pledge。

The contract follows the memorandum of understanding that was signed by the two companies in February 2022. The partnership between Baker Hughes and EGPC aims to establish and drive a flare recovery initiative to support emissions recovery and reduction across Egypt’s upstream and downstream oil and gas operations.

Part of the Baker Hughes Climate Technology Solutions portfolio, flare.IQ is fast, accurate, reliable, easy to deploy and cost effective. It has a proven track record in optimizing flare operations, achieving steam savings and significantly reducing methane emissions.
