ABSTRACT
Titas is the largest gas reserve field with production per day is 400 mmscf from 26 wells at different locations. Flow, pressure, and temperature of gas and oil level measurement system of Titas gas field in different locations are based on an orifice meter chart recorder, pressure gauge, temperature gauge, and liquid level measuring tape respectively. All data recording and reporting are paper-based and require huge man-hour involvement and a large volume of diesel is used for flow data collection and recorder maintenance & calibration. There is a continuous risk of mechanical error due to malfunction of any spare parts. On the other side, transmitters are almost free from man-made or mechanical error. Transmitters are proposed for the wellhead, oil storage tank, and flow line & sales line. A local data converter will convert data received from transmitters of every individual location and will send it to the GSM and RF transmitter through cable. The radio frequency transmitter and GSM module will act redundantly to transfer signals from locations to the central data acquisition center. Data can be processed by a programmable logic controller and visualized by screen in a monitoring room. This analysis is performed to suggest a completely automated data acquisition, analysis, and reporting system to replace the existing system with a desire to reduce cost and environmental damage.
