Exploring the Advancement in Computational Mathematical Analysis for Upstream and Midstream Application of Centrifugal Compression

Centrifugal compressors play vital role in many compression applications across various industries. This work reviewed applications of centrifugal compressors in upstream and midstream sectors especially compression, refrigeration, pipeline compression, gas injection, gas lift, gas gathering, export compression and air compression. In LNG compression, centrifugal compressors are instrumental in ensuring efficient and reliable compression of liquefied natural gas, enabling its safe transportation and storage. Compressors offer exceptional cooling capabilities in refrigeration processes, enabling preservation of perishable goods and maintaining optimal temperatures in various industries. Pipeline compression is a function of centrifugal compressors, it facilitates movement of natural gas through vast networks of pipelines, ensuring constant and uninterrupted supply to consumers. Gas lift operations in oil production enhance well productivity where centrifugal compressors provide necessary pressure to lift oil to the surface. Similarly, in gas gathering systems, compressors aid in collecting and transporting gas from multiple wells to processing facilities. Centrifugal compressors are also utilized in export compression to compress natural gas for international transportation, enabling countries exporting their valuable energy resources to global markets. This research provides comprehensive insights into diverse applications of centrifugal compressors in upstream and midstream sectors with emphasis on compressor design, its performance characteristics and control.
