During the day, two jet UAVs hit the territory of the Gandintsevsky gas processing plant of Okranfta JSC in the Pryloki district of the Chernihiv region. As a result of the impact, the engine room of the booster station and the propane cooling unit were damaged, and a fire broke out in the technological site in an area of about 200 square meters.
50.4305032, 32.7939527.
The blow fell directly on the equipment of the gas processing workshop, and not on the auxiliary infrastructure of the project.
The Gandintsevsky gas processing plant is an operational division of Okranefte, which receives and processes natural and identified petroleum gas coming from the producing divisions of Chernigovneftegaz, Akhtyrkaneftegaz and Poltavaneftegaz. The main gas production includes an absorption gas decomposition unit, a compressor station with cooling and separation units after compression stages II and III, a propane cooling system and a gas drying unit. It is this technological circle that has been damaged.
Compressor equipment increases the pressure of the incoming gas to the necessary parameters to go through the following stages of separation, cooling and gas decomposition. Therefore, damage to the engine room directly limits the possibility of normal compression of the gas flow. For the gas processing plant, this is a critical section: without maintaining the required pressure, the following devices in the production line cannot operate in the designed state.
The official technological program of the enterprise directly provides the direction of the gas to the compressor station of the Gandintsevsky gas processing plant, after which it undergoes further preparation and processing.
The second affected area - the propane cooling unit - is already related to deep cooling of the gas after compression.
