Abstract:The interface design between platform and reciprocating compressor for offshore oil and gas field are analyzed and studied, including interface parameters with platform design disciplines of process, common specialty, pipe layout, safety, electrical, instrument control, structure and mechinery. The requirements for compressor adaptability, explosion proof, signal transmission and connection, anti-vibration design are proposed. The guidance is provided for platform engineering design and the understanding of interface design between reciprocating compressor and platform for skid contractor is deepened, which optimizes skid design and construction, and promotes reliable, continuous and safe operation of offshore reciprocating compressor after putting into production.
