伊拉克B9油田CPF脱乙烷塔吊装成功 Successful Lifting of The Deethanizer Tower

2024年8月6日，伊拉克当地时间17时，随着B9项目现场两辆百万吨重的履带车稳步就位，B9油田中央处理厂一期气包工程脱乙烷塔的最终吊装就此拉开帷幕。

Following the recent commissioning of the Faihaa Oilfield Central Processing Facility (CPF), the energy remains persistent as the project team embarks on the next major challenge: the CPF Gas Project. On 6 August 2024, the Deethanizer tower at the B9 Oilfield CPF gas project was successfully lifted.

随着日暮西沉，夜色悄然铺开，600吨级主吊的巨臂已稳稳锚定在精心设计的吊点之上，而200吨辅吊则如同忠诚的伙伴，其钢丝绳紧紧缠绕在脱乙烷塔的尾端，蓄势待发。

At 5 PM Iraq time, all focus was on lifting the Deethanizer tower, a critical piece of equipment in natural gas processing. Leading the charge, a 600-ton crawler crane named ”Terex” was mobilized, its formidable boom commanding the site. On standby, a 200-ton auxiliary crane was ready to provide critical support.

19点18分，随着指挥员清晰而有力的号令划破夜空，两台吊机仿佛被赋予了灵魂，它们以惊人的默契同时启动，缓慢而坚定地将这座钢铁巨人从稳固的底座中托举而出。随着塔器缓缓升起，一场精心策划的吊装艺术悄然展开。主吊精准地启动起钩程序，而辅吊则默契地前进拖尾，两者在指挥员的调度下，如同两位熟练的搬运工协同作业，将塔器缓缓引导至垂直状态。这一过程，既是对技术的极致考验，也是项目各参建方协作精神的完美展现。

As dusk settled and the site’s lights cast a glow over the area, the team executed their preparations with precision. The 600-ton crane's steel wire ropes were expertly secured at designated lift points, while the 200-ton crane was geometrically positioned at the tower's aft to ensure perfect alignment. At exactly 7:18 PM, the operation began. Both cranes worked in synchrony, lifting the Deethanizer tower from its support. Once the tower reached the required height, the main crane took over the full load, and the auxiliary crane carefully maneuvered the tower to a vertical position, ensuring precise positioning. 

随后，所有负载平稳转移至主吊，辅吊则顺利解除钢丝绳。主吊遵循既定轨迹，将扶正的脱乙烷塔稳稳安装，历时五小时吊装圆满落幕，现场各方团队紧密配合、高效协同，每一个环节都如行云流水般顺畅，展现出了一种令人赞叹的和谐之美。这一刻的圆满成功，不仅是对所有参与人员辛勤付出的最好肯定，更是B9油田天然气处理厂建设进程中的一个重要里程碑。

The main crane then executed the final phase, installing the Deethanizer tower in its designated spot. The entire operation, completed in just five hours, demonstrated the precision and synergy of the on-site teams, marking a significant milestone in the CPF Gas Project journey. 

截至目前，中央处理厂气包工程已稳健推进至整体进度的82%。面对自4月起项目遭遇伊拉克清关政策变动的重大挑战。寰球中东公司B9 PMC团队迅速启动应急响应机制，与各方紧密沟通，持续跟踪设备预计到场时间的最新动态。展现出了超凡的应变能力与高效的执行能力，通过精细化管理与高效资源调配，确保每一环节都能紧密衔接，最大限度减少因清关延误造成的影响，成功地将不利因素转化为推动项目前进的动力。

With this successful lift, the CPF Gas Project has reached an 82% completion rate. However, the journey hasn't been without its challenges. Since April, the project has faced considerable delays due to changes in Iraq’s customs policies,  PMC team of HQC（Middle East）has worked closely with all parties and tracked continuously the latest developments on the estimated arrival time of the equipment. Refined management and efficient resource allocation ensured that all the procedures were connected to minimize the impact of customs clearance delays.

脱乙烷塔的成功吊装是伊拉克B9油田中央处理厂气包项目的重要里程碑之一。寰球中东公司B9 PMC项目组始终以业主的目标为目标，全力以赴履行职责，完成各项节点任务，确保顺利实现2024年底投产目标。

The successful installation of the Deethanizer Tower is one of the important milestones of the CPF Gas Project of the B9 oilfield in Iraq. The B9 PMC project team will go all out to assist the owner in completing various node tasks and successfully achieve the production goal by the end of 2024.
