PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The primary objective of the project is to sustain gas supplies to NLNG trains 1 to 6. The project
was conceptualized on optimisation of SPDCs infrastructure usage by utilising spare capacity
that will become available in Soku Gas Plant as from 2014. Non Associated Gas from Kolo Creek
Deep (F1 and F2 reservoirs) shall be bulked in a manifold and evacuated through approx. 20 x
40km bulkline to Soku Gas Plant for processing and onward sales to NLNG trains 1 to 6. The
Kolo Creek field is situated in the southern part of OML-28 in the seasonal flooding fresh-water
swamp area, some 18km southeast of the Gbaran CPF and about 90km west of Port Harcourt. It
is one of SPDCs Eastern Division fields considered as part of the Gbaran-Ubie nodal
development to provide feed stock gas for the NLNG Trains 1 to 6.
The Kolo Creek to Soku project optimizes SPDCs infrastructure usage in the short term and
maximizes ullage for both the Soku and Gbaran areas.
The EPC contract scope with NestOil PLC for this project is summarized as follows;
1. Four (4) flowlines from the F2 wells to the new Kolo Creek (intermediate) production
headers with the proper control, safeguarding, metering and monitoring requirements.
2. Three (3) flowlines from the F1 wells to the new Kolo Creek (intermediate) production
headers with the proper control, safeguarding, metering and monitoring requirements.
3. Three (3) intermediate production headers combining the seven (7) F1 and F2 flowlines
into three (3) intermediate bulklines.
4. Three (3) intermediate bulklines with HIPPS and the proper control, safeguarding,
metering and monitoring requirements.
5. One (1) Kolo Creek manifold combining the three (3) intermediate bulklines into the 20inch, 40 km long bulkline to the Soku Gas Plant.
6. 20-inch, 40 km long carbon steel pipeline (including the pig launcher and receiver and
proper control, safeguarding, metering and monitoring requirements) from Kolo Creek
NAG manifold to the Soku Gas Plant designed for evacuation of 400 MMscf/d from Kolo
Creek NAG manifold. This pipeline will traverse some communities in Niger Delta, Nigeria
though the intention of the routing was to avoid it as much as possible.
7. Slug-catcher at the Soku Gas Plant and full integration with the existing Soku Gas Plant
including definition of process control and safe guarding systems.
8. Utilities in Kolo Creek and Soku Gas Plant to ensure safe and cost effective evacuation of
400 MMscf/d from Kolo Creek to Soku.
9. Installation of hardwares for control of facilities at Kolo Creek from Soku control room
10. Installation of a Fibre Optics Cable (FOC) along the length of the pipeline ROW for the
purpose of back-up communication for Kolo Creek Instrumentation Systems.
1.1
