RDC RECENTLY AWARDED ADELPHIA GATEWAY PROJECT
Riggs Distler’s Heavy Civil, Mechanical & Industrial Electrical Groups will be providing turnkey construction services for this project. Project descriptions below provided by Gas Compression Magazine.
Marcus Hook Compressor Station
Adelphia proposes to construct a 5625-hp (4196-kW) compressor station in Delaware County, Pennsylvania, USA. Adelphia will install three 1875-hp (1398-kW) Caterpillar 3606 A4 reciprocating compressor units at the compressor station. The units will be housed in a new sound attenuating compressor building. The compressor building will be acoustically insulated to reduce the sound transmission. Additional major auxiliary equipment to be installed include fuel gas system, standby generator, liquid disposal tank, engine lubricant tank, an auxiliary building, control building, filter separators, yard lighting, and associated equipment piping. The station piping would be designed for a maximum allowable operation pressure of 1440 psig (99 bar). Necessary automation and controls would be installed to allow for remote station monitoring and operation from various gas control facilities.
