The Gas Recovery Unit (GRU) is a vital auxiliary system in refineries and oil & gas processing facilities. Its main purpose is to recover light hydrocarbon gases from vent streams or flare gases, instead of releasing or burning them. This unit captures components such as ethane, propane, butane, and dry gas (methane) for further use as fuel or feedstock in downstream units.
The Gas Extraction Unit (GRU) is a vital component in refineries, processing the gases produced from various distillation and cracking processes to separate economically valuable components such as liquefied petroleum gas (LPG), propane, butane, and ethane. It also recovers dry gas, which can be used as internal fuel to power the units. This unit not only maximizes economic returns by recovering high-value products but also contributes to reducing waste and emissions, thus improving the overall efficiency of the refinery. Due to its precise operation and reliance on sensitive equipment such as compressors, chillers, heat exchangers, and absorption and distillation towers, it requires meticulous attention in terms of maintenance, upgrades, and safe operation. This is where our company comes in. We possess the capability to provide integrated solutions that cover all the requirements of this unit, from upgrades and modernization, through maintenance, equipment supply, installation, development, and expansion, to consulting and training services. We rehabilitate separation and absorption towers by replacing damaged trays or packing bundles and upgrading internal systems to increase extraction efficiency. We also modernize cooling and condensation systems using advanced technologies to enhance gas recovery efficiency. Furthermore, we provide solutions for upgrading and replacing outdated control systems with advanced digital systems such as DCS and SCADA, enabling precise monitoring and better control of gas flows. We cover the complete installation of new or upgraded units, including the installation of absorption towers, heat exchangers, and compressors. We also carry out civil works related to concrete foundations and steel structures, as well as laying gas and condensate piping networks. Our services also include the installation of electrical and control systems and their connection to central control rooms to ensure safe and stable operation. We support refineries in upgrading their gas recovery units by introducing new technologies to improve separation efficiency, reduce losses, and increase unit production capacity to meet market demands. We also offer advanced solutions for heat recovery and fuel consumption reduction, in addition to digital transformation projects by connecting the unit to ERP and SCADA systems to enhance transparency and better control of operations. Services: Rehabilitation and Modernization Services: Maintenance Services: We offer comprehensive mechanical maintenance, including compressors, heat exchangers, chillers, and pumps, as well as piping and separation equipment maintenance. We also perform non-destructive testing (NDT) on all pressurized equipment to ensure its safety. Our services also include electrical maintenance for motors and distribution systems, and calibration of pressure, flow, and temperature gauges and control devices. We implement preventive maintenance and turnaround programs that allow for thorough cleaning, inspection, and replacement of damaged parts. Supply and Procurement Services: We supply all necessary equipment and spare parts for the unit, including compressors, chillers, valves, and modern gauges. We also supply consumables such as gaskets, corrosion-resistant pipes, and internal tower separation systems. We also supply integrated cooling systems and supporting gas treatment systems to ensure continuous and efficient operation. Consulting and Training Services: Our services include preparing economic and technical feasibility studies for rehabilitation and expansion projects, and providing basic and detailed engineering designs (FEED & Detailed Engineering). We also offer specialized training programs for engineers and technicians covering the operation and maintenance of gas extraction systems, with a focus on operational safety and handling gases under pressure.
