Titas Field

 

Titas gas field is located some 100 Km away to the direction of northern-east from capital city of Bangladesh, Dhaka. It lies at the skirt of the Brahmanbaria district town. This field was discovered by Pakistan Shell Oil Company in 1962. The structure is an elongate north-south asymmetrical anticline measuring about 19x10 square km with a vertical closure of 500m. As per latest Petrobangla re-estimation, total recoverable gas reserve of Titas gas field is 7,582 billion cubic feet (BCF). Commercial gas production from this field was commenced in 1968 and till February 28, 2023 total 5283.901 billion cubic feet gas or 69.69% of reserves has been recovered.

 

Out of total 27 (twenty seven) nos. gas wells drilled so far in this field 9 (Nine) are vertical wells and the remaining 18 (eighteen) are directional wells. The wells are spread (surface location) at 9 (Nine) different locations stretched over about 11 km distance. In February 2023, average 399.03 million cubic feet of gas is produced daily from 22 wells of this field and processed through 10 nos. glycol dehydration type, 4 nos. Low Temperature Separation (LTS) type and 2 nos. LTS with glycol dehydration type process plants and supplied to the transmission pipelines of Titas Gas Transmission & Distribution Co. Ltd. (TGTDCL) and Gas Transmission Company Ltd. (GTCL). In February 2023 on average 396.89 bbls condensate is produced daily with gas as by-product. In February 2023 average condensate/gas ratio of this field is 0.744 bbls/million cubic feet and water/gas ratio is 1.547 bbl/million cubic feet. Titas well no.3 was Plugged & Abandoned by snubbing operation on 25.02.2008 to prevent gas seepage from nearby locality.

 

With a view to increase the sales line pressure of Titas gas field, Location-C, three Gas Booster compressors have been installed. The capacity of each compressor is 30 million cubic feet daily. Out of 3 compressors, two compressors are running and another one is standby.
