Cameron has clinched a contract to supply SBM Offshore with gas processing packages for Floating Production, Storage and Offloading (FPSO) vessels for the deepwater Lula field offshore Brazil.
The FPSOs Cidade de Maricá and Cidade de Saquarema are under construction by SBM and will be replicas of the Cidade de Ilhabela FPSO project now underway in Brazil, where Cameron is providing gas dehydration and carbon dioxide removal packages to SBM.
The packages under the new contract will be used for gas dehydration and acid gas removal before routing the gas to reinjection compressors. They are fully automated and can process approximately 5.7cu. m/d of natural gas.
Cameron’s gas dehydration packages are molecular, sieve-based units that dehydrate natural gas streams to extremely low levels and can process gas to lower dew points than glycol dehydration systems.
