(The objective of the project is to develop the offshore and onshore facilities for phases 6, 7 & 8 of south pars gas field located approximately 100 km offshore in Persian gulf) Phases 6, 7 & 8 embrace about 650 billion cubic meters of gas (four billion barrels of oil equivalent) and some 700 million barrels of condensate (light oil). The facilities are designed to produce, treat and transport the reservoir fluids from three development phases of 1000 MMscfd equivalent wellhead fluid each. These three phases consists of three identical wellhead platforms with the distance of 10 km each which will be used to separate associated water from the gas and the wet gas will be transported to shore via three subsea pipe lines (32”Dia.) one dedicated to each platform. The gas is then treated onshore at Assahuyeh refinery.
