A fuel gas skid is a modular package that conditions and delivers fuel gas to consumers such as gas turbines, engines, boilers and furnaces. Akan Industrial and Automation designs and manufactures fuel gas skids as complete modular units with piping, supports, tubing, valve assemblies, filters, instrumentation and pre-wired junction boxes. Skids are pre-assembled and tested before dispatch to simplify installation on site.
Engineering
Akan’s engineering department turns basic data and technical specifications into detailed designs in line with the applicable international standards, optimized for performance, safety and reliability.
Fabrication
Akan’s qualified welders work with carbon steel, stainless steel and other special alloys, so the piping material can be selected to suit the gas composition and operating conditions.
Pre-assembly, inspection and testing
- Skids are pre-assembled mechanically and electrically to the greatest extent possible before delivery.
- Each skid is inspected and tested in line with the applicable codes, standards and customer specifications before dispatch.
- Pre-assembly shortens site installation and supports a smooth start-up.
Typical skid content
| Component | Purpose |
|---|---|
