Case Study: Hybrid CSG Wellsite Power
NERA is supporting the demonstration
of technical and commercial value of
Hybrid Wellsite Solar Battery Generator
packages for CSG wellsite power.
The project is proposing to combine
three key elements for the trial:
➢ Generator 40KVa with gas fuelled
reciprocating engine
➢ Synchronising switchboard with
dual power input
➢ Solar battery hybrid container
The solar hybrid package would deliver
a nominal 8kW of power from either the
solar and battery power supply and up to
32kW from the gas generator for
potential high load situations.
Impact:
Reduction in generator operating hours
and maintenance costs
Improved service life of generation
equipment
Lower system use gas
Increased field capacity increase due to
higher power availability
Lower carbon and noise emissions
Improved flexibility with generator
maintenance
12
Case Study: Zero Emissions Coal
TechnologyNERA is supporting the installation of a
newly patented Dynamic Goaf Balancing
System that can concentrate and
capture methane for beneficial use or
destruction.
This Project aims to provide Australian
underground coal mines with a
technically viable method to drastically
reduce fugitive greenhouse gas
emissions during their operations.
The system provides a safe and
environmentally sustainable alternative
to the venting of fugitive GHG to the
atmosphere through the mine ventilation
system.
Impact:
New methane capture technology has
the potential to drastically reduce GHG
emissions from Australian underground
coal mines.
13
Case Study: Scheduling System for
Coal Export TerminalsShort term planning (2-3 day horizon)
and operations scheduling (24hr
horizon) decisions at coal export
terminals are fundamentally manual
processes.
This project aims to create proof-of-
concept scheduling software that
optimises coal export terminal
operations.
The project will further develop and
deploy the solution to automate and
optimise planning and scheduling of
terminal equipment.
Impact:
Initial proof-of-concept suggest
potential export terminal capacity
improvements of up to 10% could be
achieved per port.
These improvements could be realised
for the majority of Australian coal
export terminals.
