Qualitas built a fully modularized, two parallel train 20,000 BOPD heavy sour crude oil production facility. It included among other equipment, a 118 inch ID x 72 inch ID 76 feet S/S crude oil sweetening tower, amine sweetening system, a 450 HP sour gas two stage compressor. After finishing fabrication in Calgary, Canada, our customer was able to witness how we set up his equipment in our staging yard on the exact footprint as on-site for the testing and wiring before disassembling it again and completing the export packaging and crating.

The equipment was shipped to Kurdistan while the foundations on-site were completed prior to the arrival of the equipment.

The preliminary effort of setting up the facility in Canada, including electrical, helped to complete the assembly in under 4 weeks. Qualitas technical personnel remained on site for the commissioning and start-up.
