A Winn-Marion Solution

Oxygen Analyzer and Slam Valve


Application: Natural Gas Wellhead Trace Oxygen Analysis and Shut-In

Description: Local gathering company requires natural gas received from producer to have less than 10 ppm (parts per million) oxygen.  Higher levels are indicative of a leak, which are much more prevalent in this low-pressure field.  Oxygen, combined with the moisture inherent in the gas stream, creates a dangerous corrosion hazard in the gatherers high-pressure system. 

  
 

Solution: WM Automation Service, LLC provides turnkey supply and installation of this analyzer and “slam-valve” package.  When the oxygen level reaches a point of 10 ppm or higher, a pulse is sent to the valve to slam it shut.  This gives the producer the opportunity to inspect his well and compression to find the leak.  Otherwise the high oxygen reading would be seen by the gathering company and the producer’s well would be shut-in by the gatherer.  When this happens, the downtime before the well can be brought on-line may be days, resulting in great loss of production and income.
