Versatile collector design and analysis for natural gas main transmission stations

In today's world, where the energy demand in the world is increasing rapidly, countries are making investments to reach clean, cheap and alternative energy sources. Due to the diversification of supply sources due to energy policies, variability of energy prices, long-term agreements, export capacities of countries, geographical distances, natural gas drilling works, etc., appropriate piping installation at compressor stations that can operate at alternative directions, pressures and capacities that will provide gas imports from different countries in certain quantities and for certain periods. development was required. In this study, considering the geographical location of the compressor stations needed in the natural gas transmission system during the project design phase, a versatile collector design has been made that will allow it to operate at alternative pressures and flow rates. Thus, the compressor station located at the intersection of the transmission lines on four different routes will be able to serve. This station also provides the possibility of routing the transmission lines separated in different directions at variable flow rates.
