MSE CONSULTANTS LTD
CONSULTANTS IN OIL AND GAS

MSE are independent consultants to the oil and gas industry, specialising in gas compression systems, heavy machinery including gas turbines, centrifugal and piston compressors, pumps etc and associated process design and control systems. MSE's proprietary GASMAN software system integrates gas reservoirs with surface, process and compression facilities for optimising production.

Typical PFD

Typical PFD: Gas Lift System. MSE’s concept design, optimisation and simulation systems cover oil and gas separation and recompression, gas lift and gas injection, gas production, gas treatment export and pipeline systems.

MSE EXPERIENCE OF MAJOR OIL AND GAS PROJECTS

From its two locations in the UK, MSE serves a world-wide client base. It can demonstrate extensive involvement in offshore developments in the UK Sector of the North Sea (Brent LPO, Pelican, Cormorant, Morecambe Bay, CATS pipeline and associated systems) and also the Norwegian, Danish and Dutch Sectors (Troll and Kollsnes, Kaarsto, Tyra and the P6 development).

FPSO

MSE designed and upgraded the gas compression and associated gas lift system for the Spirit of Columbus FPSO requisitioned by Petrobras for the giant Roncador development.

CONCEPT DESIGN, OPTIMISATION AND SIMULATION

MSE carry out feasibility, concept design, optimisation and dynamic simulation of oil and gas production facilities. Our expertise covers oil and gas separation and recompression, gas lift and gas injection, gas production, gas treatment export and pipeline system. Examples of such experience include Brent LPO, Pelican Cormorant Alpha.

MODIFICATION AND UPGRADE OF OFFSHORE OIL AND GAS FACILITIES

Offshore oil and gas production facilities require upgrade and modifications to maintain and optimise their production.

GAS PRODUCTION, GAS TREATMENT, OPTIMISATION AND FORECASTS

MSE provide innovative, practical and cost effective solutions for offshore gas field systems and associated onshore receiving facilities.

PRODUCTION MAINTENANCE OF RESERVOIRS

Mature Gas Fields - proven design concepts and methodologies for arresting production decline, enhancing gas volumes delivered, reducing operating costs and increasing equipment availability and UPTIME.

Upgrade of Gas Compression System - upgrade of Tyra offshore platform for Maersk, involving compressor upgrade to accommodate gas production increase from 600 MMSCFD to 900 MMSCFD.

Gas Compressor Redesign - redesign of two offshore gas compression platforms AK and BK in the Leman field for Shell UK leading to savings of £12 millions per annum in operating costs.

Gas Turbines Power Upgrades - MSE specialise in facilities involving gas turbine driven compressors, power generation, turbo-expanders and other high technology and high cost equipment.

Machinery and Process Systems - knowledge of associated processing makes us an ideal company to design new systems or audit projects. MSE specialist services include: Compressor Design and Process Optimisation Studies Compressor Re-Wheeling Studies Compressor Modifications for Debottlenecking Availability & Reliability Studies Of Machinery Performance Testing Of Compressor And Gas Turbines

SOFTWARE SYSTEMS

MSE have developed a range of proprietary software systems to assist with the design, sizing and selection of equipment. MSE have also pioneered the development of innovative systems for gas production optimisation and Dynamic Simulation.

GASMAN - INTEGRATED MODEL OF GAS PRODUCTION SYSTEMS

GASMAN is a proprietary, bespoke software system which integrates gas reservoir, wells, gathering system and surface facilities into one seamless system. GASMAN optimises gas production and is extensively used for forecasting and negotiating gas contracts and transportation of THIRD PARTY GAS.

CENTRIF

CENTRIF is a proprietary program used extensively by MSE for the design, selection and optimisation of centrifugal compressors from process conditions. MSE also offers Dynamic Simulation, Training Simulators and Performance Monitoring System.
