1 SCOPE
1.1 Background
RWE Dea Egypt has discovered seven natural gas reserves in the Disouq Concession within
the onshore Nile Delta, starting in 2008, as shown on the concession map below. Further
exploration in the concession is ongoing. RWE Dea Egypt is the operator of the Concession
with EGAS as a partner.
The objective of this project is to carry out front end engineering design (FEED) services and
prepare a scope of work for Engineering, Installation and Construction tenders (procurement will
be undertaken by RWE Dea) to finally install a natural gas trunk line system to be gathered, led
to a central gas treatment plant where the gas shall be treated to achieve sales gas quality and
send to the gas pipeline infrastructure at the boundaries of the Disouq Concession.
The selected development comprises a central gas treatment site near NSG-1x, where the gas
is collected, treated by means of Low Temperature Separation utilizing the Joule Thomson
effect, and compressed for export. Treated gas is exported via a 16 export pipeline directly into
the GASCO NTS pipeline.
The well fluids from the directly routed wells and the trunk line are fed to a common inlet
separator at the central plant. All gases and liquids will be separated and processed on the
central treatment site into sales gas, stabilized condensate, and free production water.
Treatment of gas is carried out in two trains, while treatment of condensate is in a single train.
Three trains of sales gas compression are installed. During FEED investigation shall clarify, if
the installation of front end booster compressors is more advantageous compared to this
concept.
Fuel gas for the gas engine drives is taken from the suction of the sales gas compressors.
To allow further increase of the production additional tailings and all necessary equipment like
valves and flanges shall foresee to allow a simple tie in of future treatment trains.

(2) On 10% residue from distillation
Gas oil is the commonly available diesel fuel, however, supplied diesel engine fuel system
must be able to operate engine on either types of fuel. Method of engine tuning on a
specific fuel analysis must be described in supplier proposal.
It is common practice in gas plants to mix diesel fuels with naphtha or stabilized
hydrocarbon condensate, resulting in the following:
- Reducing diesel fuel viscosity
- Reducing pour point, because fuel shall be thinner and less viscous
- Increasing the diesel fuel index and the gross calorific value
Supplier shall advise the maximum mixing ratios, the resulting effect on engine overall rating,
operating engine temperatures, operating exhaust gas temperature and the method of optimum
tuning of engine for the specified condensate analysis.
Page: 25 of 26
18 GAS FUELS
Sales gas rich in methane is the most commonly available and applied for gas engines.
Molecular weight ranges from MW17.0 to MW23 and of low value of calorific value of
11,500 kcal/kg and self ignition temperature not less than 250 to 300C which allows to
apply a reasonably high engine compression ratio without possibility of detonation. Exact
fuel analysis and degree of superheating shall be advised to engine supplier in the inquiry
specification.
In unstabilised process condition, gas fuel may be sourced out of other sections of the
process where it may not be true sales gas, where gas may be richer of heavier
components, resulting in higher values of molecular weights and lower values of self-
ignition temperatures.
Supplier in his proposal shall investigate all possible types of fuels specified in purchaser
inquiry specification, evaluating for each fuel the equivalent methane number, calculating
standard engine performance ratings for each fuel type, and reporting to purchaser the
maximum possible range of gas fuels the machine can safely utilize. The required
minimum degree of superheat of fuels above their dew point shall also be specified by the
supplier.
Fuel ignition system shall be electronically controlled, individual high tension coils and
spark plugs shall be fitted for each cylinder, system shall be rated for classified area
because presence of fuel piping, filters and other system component render the area a
hazardous classification. Fuel control system shall always optimize both fuel to air ratio
and ignition timing for fuel economy and to prevent detonation.
In case detonation condition appears to tend to catastrophic condition, engine shall be

automatically tripped with control system clearly displaying the original cause of the
shutdown.
Supplier shall select fuel control system including gas fuel regulators, governor, and
ignition electronic control module, such that a very wide range of gas fuels can be
applied, per above description.
