ARAMCO Sample Stations SDSS

Mechatest provides SAUDI ARAMCO Sample Station systems for manual liquid and gas sampling purposes. The Saudi Aramco manual sample stations are specific designed conform the design basics SAES and SAMSS as well the best practice SABP-A-109 for Sampling Point Designs. 

For representative gas and liquid sampling we follow the rules of the Aramco sampling point designs, high quality and high standards are required for corrosion resistance services, we design for Aramco sample point stations with materials in Super Duplex SDSS, Inconel 625 or 6MO, most applications require a min PREN number of 42 to secure a corrosion free long lifetime.

This best practice is to provide guidelines for the safe design and installation of manual sampling station system from process stream. 

To enhance the personnel safety, sampling accuracy and minimizing data discrepancy that is hindering accurate measurement of water, chemicals, gas and liquid hydrocarbons quality across upstream and downstream facilities. 

Scope covers streams that are sampled in Saudi Aramco's onsite and offsite facilities, including but not limited to transportation pipelines and other types of hydrocarbons processing or handling facilities where a manual sampling is required.

Mechatest contributes with a lot of projects to a low-carbon future by selling closed loop emission free liquid and gas sampling systems to reduce CO2 emission. 

Liquid and Gas Sampling for Saudi Aramco facilities

The big advantage of the Mechatest fix volume sampling system is the possibility to take liquid sample under high process pressure and fill it into a glass sample bottle, the sample is directly take from a tank, container, pipeline, reactors or mixer. Water/Steam/Non Flashing Water; Flashing Crude; Liquid Hydrocarbons; Gas Sampling; Refinery Products; Tank Sampling
We have improved our sampling systems by:

• Creating closed loop systems emission free which provide a safe, controlled environment
• Suitable for high pressure process application
• Adding sample (needle or process) purge options with Nitrogen or other gas
• Fixed volume sampling, which minimizes both waste and costs
• Simplifying designs, making the sampling of liquid and gas more efficient
• Proper discharge of excess liquid or gas prevents unwanted pressure build-up in the system

These modern solutions simply regard the sampling systems themselves. Our worldwide reputation rests on the combination of excellent systems, and professional services by our team of specialists.
