Project Background
With the continuous development of energy infrastructure in Ghana and West Africa, industrial users require reliable LPG supply systems with:
- Stable LPG quality
- Accurate gas composition control
- High operational safety
- Automated process management
- Easy installation and maintenance
For this Ghana LPG project, the customer required a complete automatic LPG blending system capable of mixing propane and butane according to the required ratio and delivering stable LPG products for downstream applications.
Based on the project requirements, OKAY Energy developed a complete Ghana LPG Mixing Skid Package with advanced automation and safety protection functions.
OKAY Energy Solution for Ghana LPG Project
OKAY Energy supplied a complete skid-mounted LPG blending system, including:
LPG Feeding and Metering System
The system contains independent propane and butane inlet sections.
Each LPG stream is equipped with:
- High-accuracy flow meter
- Automatic regulating valve
- Pressure monitoring instrument
- Safety protection device
Design capacity:
| Medium | Maximum Flow |
|---|---|
| Propane | 6,000 kg/h |
| Butane | 14,000 kg/h |
| Mixed LPG | 20,000 kg/h |
Automatic LPG Blending Process
The LPG mixing process includes four main stages:
1. Propane and Butane Feeding
Propane and butane enter the LPG mixing skid through separate pipelines.
The system accurately measures each liquid LPG stream to ensure stable blending performance.
2. Flow Ratio Control
The PLC control system automatically adjusts the regulating valves according to the preset mixing ratio.
Advantages:
✓ Precise propane/butane ratio control
✓ Stable LPG heating value
✓ Reduced manual adjustment
✓ Improved operating efficiency
3. LPG Static Mixing and Analysis
After flow control, LPG enters the static mixer.
The mixing system provides:
- Uniform LPG composition
- Stable product quality
- Continuous operation capability
An online analyzer provides real-time feedback to optimize the blending process.
4. LPG Buffer Storage and Transfer
The blended LPG enters the buffer tank.
The system automatically controls:
- Liquid level
- Pressure
- Pump operation
- Emergency shutdown
The finished LPG product is safely transferred to downstream storage facilities.
