ABSTRACT Tlla;, Gas Transmission and Di<;trihution Company Limited (TGTDCL) is a gas marketing company, which purcha,es gas from Bangladesh Gas Field Company Ltd, (BGFCL) and Sylhet Gas Field Company Limited (SGFCL). This gas is translllllted through its own and Gas TransmissIOn Company Ltd's (GTCL) transmission lines 10 various bnlk customers such as Power and Ferlili~er Producing Company and distribution network throngh vanous Clly Gate Station (CGS), To"n Border Station (TBS), District Regulatmg Station (DRS) and Metering Regulating Stalion (RMS) to industrial, commercial and domes\lc users. In marketing the gas, the company ISnow facing a major probIcm, which is known as system loss. System loss is thai portion of gas purchased, which is not accounted for by saIcs. transfer and company u~es or otherwise accounled for, At present the net system loss is approximately 9%, Area wi,e in some places hke Narayangonj, this figure is near about 50%. The present level of ~ystem loss needs some reduction to bring il to an acceptable lilm!. The main objective of thi~ study is to reduce the unaccountable gas, Identification of ~aflOUS(actors related to system loss is carried out. These factor, can be elas~ified into lwo broad elasses as a) technical loss, b) non-technical loss, Techmcal losses arc inevllable and the level of thc same depends on pbysieal and operating condition of the cnstomer metering stations. Non-technical losses arc the man made loss can be many and varies witb (hfferent factors. The mam part of it is pilferage lo~s through various illegal means like meter tampering. regulalor tempering, by pass or un-metered osage etc. This study covers the definition, classifkallon, calculation, background and present slalu, of system loss Some of the special ca\l~es 01'system loss with respect to Bangladesh arc also discussed, The action program and extended action program to reduce system loss undertaken by TGTDCL and the furore plan or recommendation in Ih,S regard are also discussed. •••• Table of Contents Dedication Ackno",ledgell1enl 11 Ahstract III Tahle orContellls IV Chapter - I: Introduction 1 Chapler- 2: Literature review 6 2.1: Gas Law G 2.2: Measurement Quality 8 2,3: Commercial gas measurement . 13 2.4: Standards 29 Chaplcr - 3: Statement of the Problem 34 3.1 Objective of the Study 34 3.2 Analysis of the Problem 35 3.3 Study 35 3.4 IdentIfication 35 3.5 Action Programme 36 Chapter - 4: System Loss 37 4.1: System T.{lsSDefinition 37 4.2: System LDSsClassiJicatiDn 38 4,3: Background of System wss 42 4.4: Present State of System Loss 43 4,5: Classification of Gas Users 48 4.& Rearrangemenl of Customer Classes 50 Chapter- 5: Network Analysis 55 5.1: TransmissIon Network 55 5.2: Distribution Network 56 Chapter - 6: Contributing Factors for System Loss in Transmission System 63 Chapter-7: Contributing Factors for System Loss in a Distribution System 90 Chapter - 8: System Loss, Measurement Uncertainty Calibration and Traceability 103 8,1: Case Study - I (System Loss) 112 8.2: Case Silldy - n (MeaSllremenl Uncertainty) 114 Chapter - 9: Gas Metering 118 9, I: Existing Metering System I 18 9,2: Improvement of the Existmg System 133 Chapter - 10: System Loss Special Problem of Bangladesh 139 10.1: Transmission System and Bulk Sector 139 10.2: Distrihution system and Non-Bulk Sector 147 Chapter-I1: Action Programme 160 ILl: Measures Taken to Reduce System Loss 160 11.2: EAtended Measures Taken to Reduce System Loss 162 Chapter - 12: Discussion, Conclusion and Recommendation lGO 12.1 : Conclusion 170 12.2: Recommendation 170 References 174 Appendix - A 175 Appenulx-B 181 Appendix- C 192 AbbrevialJons 202 Nomenc laillre 203 CHAPTER-l INTRODUCTIO A greater awarcncss of system loss in nall.lral has taken placc over the past dccade, Th,s development is due to the demands for increased system reliability and efficiency, environmental and accountability Issues as wcll as extremely important criteria to minimlle the loss of revenue. "lhe sy8tem loss for transmission system is basically the difference betwecn the measurement of gas mput to the summation of gas outpLltS, with a corresponding adjustment lor changes in total line pack and other known pipeline usage and loss for a given period, For a distribution system thc basic concept of detcrmination of gas balance l~ same as for a tram,mission system. however the magmtl.lde of gas outlets coupled with the variability in demanu and complex,ty of distribution systems, means that a number of parametcrs need 10he taken into consideration. One of the major parameters is thc IInder;tanding of cu~tomer load profiles, including seasonal factors and abihty to use altemative energy ~()urees coupled with an appreciation of the plant proceS8. A transmission system will tend to be a 'tight' system with respect to leakage, \vhereas a distribution system can suffer from signi flcant natural leakage, averaging aIld estimation of gas sales, significalll Joad/lag effects with respect lo aceount and theft or lmauthorized usage. The study of the system loss in a distributwn system cmmot be conl1ucted in isolation of the trmlsmission sy<,tem from which \t sourees the gas supply. This i8 because the transmi8'lOn supplies point8 are the darum or reference point for the inpllt volume of gas. As any mcasurement has some uncertainty it must be accounted ror and fully apprecIated if a meaningful sludy is to be made for the distribution system loss. The volumctric measurement of natLlml gas is complex due to the dependence on the accurate measurement ofpressl.lre, temperature ami ~omposition. 1 Tita, Gas Transmission Jnd Distribution Company LumteJ (TGTDCL) is a gas marketing Company, which purchase gas from Bangladesh Gas Field Company Ltd. (BGFCL) and Sylhet Gas Field Company Ltd (SGFCL). This gas is transmitted through the companies own and Gas Transm1ssion Company LTD's (GTCL) transmission line to vari()u." bulk customer such as power and fertilizer producing company and distribution network through CGS, TBS, DRS and R.MS to indusllial, c()mmercial and domestic users. System loss 1"that portion of gas purchased, which is not accounted for by sales, transfer, and company u,es or otherwise accounted for, This is also known as Unacco\lllted For Gas (UFG), The factors affecting system loss all groped under two broad heads: technical and non-techmcaL Based on operational expenence and available operational data., component-wise contributions of each of the technical and non-technical factors of system loss can be estimated. Thc technical factors are estimated at about 1.25% and the non-technical t:actors arc account for about 8,11 %, the total system loss being 9.365% of net throughput. This is shown in Table-l.l].

    Power Generation from Pressure Reduction in the Natural Gas Supply Chain in Bangladesh 89 POWER GENERATION FROM PRESSURE REDUCTION IN THE NATURAL GAS SUPPLY CHAIN IN BANGLADESH Mohammed Mahbubur Rahman* Department of Petroleum & Mineral Resources Engineering (PMRE) Bangladesh University of Engineering and Technology, Dhaka-1000, Bangladesh * Corresponding email: [email protected] Abstract: Power can be generated from the pressure energy of natural gas along its supply chain at various pressure reduction points by using turbo-expanders. This technology is being applied in different countries around the world. This paper attempts to asses the potential of using this technology for Bangladesh. A number of producing wells and pressure reduction stations are investigated. It is found that pre-heating before expansion is almost always necessary to avoid hydrate formation. The power obtainable at the wellheads range from 150-500 kW, and that from pressure reduction stations range from 200 kW to 5 MW. Key Words: Power Generation, Pressure Reduction, Turbo Expander, INTRODUCTION WORLD SCENARIO Natural gas is produced at high pressures from Application of turbo-expanders for power the wells, but the pressure is deliberately reduced at generation is gaining more attention due to the recent different points along the supply chain (Figure 1). global trend of extracting energy from every Usually throttle valves or pressure control valves are conceivable source, addressing the growing concerns used to reduce the pressure, where energy of the gas over environment and energy conservation.

  • Chapter-1 Introduction
    Draft Final Plan Preparation of Development Plan for Shibpur Upazila (2015-2035) Part A: Sub-Regional Plan CHAPTER-1 INTRODUCTION 1.1 General This report has been prepared as part of the requirement of Terms of Reference (TOR) under the project “Preparation of Development Plan for Fourteen Upazilas” funded by the Government of Bangladesh. The aim of preparing this plan is to identify the infrastructural facilities needed for overall socio-economic and physical development of the people as well as the society. The Development Plan contains a Five-tier Plan which has been mentioned below: Sub-Regional Plan Structure Plan Urban Area Plan Rural Area Plan Action Area Plan This part of the report contains the Sub-Regional Plan. This new concept of structure planning gradually replaces old styled Master Plan concept. The Structure Plan provides a longer time guideline for the growth of the entire city, while the Action Plan is an immediately implementable short term plans for implementation in each ward/growth centres. The Action plans cover specific areas of a town where prioritized actions are needed. However, we still keeping the Master Plan concept in our city planning due to its greater familiarity among the Paurashava/Upazila level. 1.2 Vision of the Plan Packages The vision of the plan is the creation of an urban livable environment where the people, able and or disable, irrespective of age-sex and income, cast-creed and religion, can live and enjoy today within affordable means without sacrificing interests of tomorrow. However the overall vision of the Master Plan is to make the upazila by revitalizing its growth and make it a poverty free, livable and economically vibrant upazila.

Shale volume of those zones were aver- aged at ranged from 14% to 25% indicate reservoir consists of sand dominated lithology and less influence the water saturation for the study well. Porosity of these zones were averaged as 27 % which was within the ranged for very good gas accumulation. Water satura- tion values were less than 35 % which calculated by using three equations. Gas saturation values were more than 65 % revealed that high gas accumulation in these gas reservoirs. Permeability was averaged at ranged from 32 mD to 55 mD which was within limit for good gas accumulation.
