The assembly of the coldbox modules for the fifth train of the Amur Gas Processing Plant (GPP) is underway.

It is an important element of the complex of cryogenic technological equipment and is intended for cooling the natural gas entering the plant before being fed to the gas separation columns.

The raw gas cooling unit consists of seven modules.

They were delivered to the site of the Amur GPP during the 2021 navigation.

The delivery took about three months.

A reinforced concrete base has been prepared for assembling the unit.

The assembly of raw gas cooling unit is to take around a month.

The works are planned to be completed in October 2021.

The modules are assembled into a single unit using a crane with a lifting capacity of 1,600 tons.

Total weight of the installed equipment of the cold box is about 1,400 tons, its height is more than 77 meters. Earlier, four similar raw gas cooling units were installed on the first, second, third and fourth process lines of Amur Gas Processing Plant.
