Azeri, Chirag & Gunashli Full Field Development Phase 3 Environmental & Socio-economic Impact Assessment Final Report A3.1 Introduction The following sections present the atmospheric emissions and their derivation for the construction, installation, hook-up and commissioning (HUC), and operations phases of the ACG Phase 3 project offshore. It includes pollutant emission factors, general assumptions and emissions data for the various atmospheric emissions contributors for the previously mentioned phases of the offshore facilities including jackets, topsides, template, inter-field export pipelines, subsea systems, pre-drilling and Operations. Emissions are calculated using internationally accepted Emission Factors that are calculated based on real time data collected over time. The following sources of emission factors have been used to be able to calculate the emissions during construction using mobile equipment and diesel power generators; installation and hook up using seagoing vessels; operations including combustion and flaring: • Pollutant emission factors for general plant and equipment have been sourced from the

EMEP/CORINAIR Atmospheric Emission Inventory Guidebook, 3rd edition, October 2002, Technical Report No. 30;

• Pollutant emission factors for power generators have been sourced from the US EPA AP-42, Section 3.4. (Compilation of Air Pollutant Emission Factors, AP-42, Fifth Edition, Volume 1: Stationary Point and Area Sources; US EP, January 1995);

• Pollutant emission factors for sea-going vessels have been sourced from the E&P Forum Report No. 2.59/197 (Methods for Estimating Atmospheric Emissions from E&P Operations, Report No. 2.59/197; The Oil Industry International E&P Forum, September 1994); and

• Guidelines on Atmospheric Emissions Inventory; UK Offshore Operators association Ltd (UKOOA); July 1995.

The methodology and assumptions used to calculate the emissions for the different phases are discussed in the following sections. Different emission factors are used depending on the phase of the project (construction, installation or operations), the type of equipment, vessels and plant used, duration of the activity. A3.2 Onshore fabrication of Offshore Platforms Including Jackets,

Topsides and Drilling Template A3.2.1 Construction and Load-Out A3.2.1.1 Methodology The method used to calculate emissions for the onshore fabrication of the offshore facilities includes assumptions in regards the type of equipment and vehicles used during the construction and load-out programme, the number of vehicles and equipment used, the duration of vehicles and equipment use and emission factor associated with the type of vehicles and equipment used. A worst-case scenario that the equipment is being used continuously for the duration is assumed. The equipment will however, only be used intermittent, so in reality the emissions will be less that what is presented here. All emissions data are presented in tonnes. The following is a worked example to demonstrate application of the methodology used to derive emission estimates: • Six (6) cranes are anticipated to be used for the construction of the DUQ topsides. The

cranes will be used for 10 hours per day and it is assumes that there are 30 days per month. The work will continue for 27 months. The emission factor for cranes is 87,704 kg/h of CO2. Therefore 6 x 10 x 30 x 27 x 87,704 = 4,262 te of CO2 is attributable to the cranes, based on a worst case scenario. There will however, be periods when the cranes are not working and hence the emissions will be intermittent.

Azeri, Chirag & Gunashli Full Field Development Phase 3 Environmental & Socio-economic Impact Assessment Final Report A3.2.2 Installation and Hook-Up & Commissioning (HUC) A3.2.2.1 Methodology The method used to calculate the emissions arising from the installation and HUC of the template, jackets and topsides includes the type of vessels used during the operations, the number of vessels used, the amount of diesel fuel used by each vessel, the duration of the time the vessels are used and the emission factor for the each pollutant species. This gives the tonnes of pollutant per tonne of fuel used. A worst-case scenario in which the vessels are being used continuously and for the duration of the programme is assumed. Vessel usage will however, be intermittent so in reality the emissions will be less that what is presented here. All emissions data are presented in tonnes. A worked example follows: • The Derrick Barge Azerbaijan (DBA) will be used for installation of the DUQ topsides.

The installation programme will be 77 days long. The barge uses 15 te per day of fuel. The emission factor for CO2 is 3.2 tonnes of CO2 per tonne of fuel used. Therefore 1 x 77 x 15 x 3.2 = 6,930 te of CO2 will be attributable to the DBA for the installation and HUC of the DUQ topsides, based on a worst-case scenario. There will however, be periods when the DBA is standing by and may not use the amount of fuel presumed here, hence the emissions will likely be less.

A3.2.2.2 DUQ and PCWU Jackets and Topsides, and Template The scope of this section is for the calculation of emissions for the Template, DUQ and PCWU platform installation and HUC. The tables following shows the emission factors used and the assumptions used for the installation and HUC of the facilities, assuming the duration according to the schedule. It also shows the type of seagoing vessels used in the installation and HUC, the number of vessels used and their fuel usage. A3.2.2.3 Emission Factors for vessels The emission factors used for the calculations are taken from the following source and are relevant for seagoing vessels. Emissions are calculated based on tonne of pollutant per tonne of fuel used. Table A3.11 E&P Forum - Report No. 2.59/197: Tonnes of Emissions per Tonnes of

A worst-case scenario where vessels are being used continuously for the duration is assumed. Vessel use will however, be intermittent, so in reality the emissions will be less than what is presented here. All emissions data are presented in tonnes. The following is a worked example • It is assumed that there will be two (2) supply vessels operating for 47 days. Each has a

fuel usage rate of 6 te/day. The emission factor for CO2 is 3.2 te of CO2 per tonne of fuel used. Therefore 2 x 47 x 6 x 3.2 = 1,805 te of CO2 attributable to the supply vessels for the installation of the subsea facilities, based on a worst-case scenario. There will however, be periods when the vessels will not be in use and hence the emissions will be intermittent.

Azeri, Chirag & Gunashli Full Field Development Phase 3 Environmental & Socio-economic Impact Assessment Final Report A3.5 MODU Pre-Drilling A3.5.1 Methodology It is assumed that pre-drilling activities will be carried out by the Dada Gordud (DDGG). The methodology for calculating the emissions associated with the pre-drilling programme is as follows: 1. Emissions are predicted for getting the DDGG to the site (rig transfer). This involves the

use of seagoing vessels (tugs), the time it takes to get to the site, the amount of fuel used by the tugs and the associated emission factor to calculate the amount of pollutant per tonne of fuel used.

2. The power requirements for the pre-drilling programme are calculated using the fuel used in the diesel power generator on the DDGG, the duration of the pre-drilling programme and the relevant emission factor for engines, giving tonne of pollutant per tonne of fuel used.

3. The helicopters required for transporting personnel to the site. The emissions from this will be the number of trips, the fuel used per trip and the emission factor for helicopter fuel usage.

4. The seagoing vessels required for the pre-drilling programme give rise to emissions that are calculated by the number of seagoing vessels, the duration they are required, the tonnes of fuel used for that duration and the relevant emission factor for tonne of pollutant per tonne of fuel used.

5. Flaring due to the oil and gas flared during the well testing will result in emissions from oil and gas being flared. The emissions resulting from this are calculated by number of well test conducted, the duration of the well test, the amount of oil and gas predicted to be flared, and the relevant emission factors for oil and gas, based on tonne of pollutant per tonne of gas and oil flared.

A3.5.1.1 Emission Factors The emission factors used in the calculations for the pre-drilling phase are taken from the following source and are tonnes of pollutant per tonne of fuel burnt. Table A3.20 Emission Factors (E&P Forum - Report No. 2.59/197) - Tonnes of

The main sources of emissions considered are those from fuel gas consumption (generators for power generation and water injection) and any potential flaring, including the flare purge and pilot as a continuous source. The estimates include flaring as a result of start up, which is based on 75%, 85% and 95% availability of processing plant and equipment for years 1, 2 and 3+, respectively. From year 2011 onwards, it has been assumed that 1% of gas produced per year will be flared. It is also assumed that 86% of this volume will be flared offshore at the platforms with the balance of 14% will be flared onshore at the terminal (see Technical Appendix 4 on onshore operations). SO2 emissions resulting from potential H2S in the gas are not expected for DWG. A3.6.1 Methodology The methodology used to calculate emissions attributable to the operation of the offshore facility is based on the production profile for oil, gas and water, over the life of the PSA, 2008 – 2024. From this, the power required for production and processing at the offshore facilities

Azeri, Chirag & Gunashli Full Field Development Phase 3 Environmental & Socio-economic Impact Assessment Final Report is calculated taking into account number of generators required. The fuel needed to produce the power required is calculated, taking into account the need to operate the equipment at lower loads. The total fuel gas usage is multiplied by the appropriate emission factor to give the tonnes of pollutant per tonne of fuel gas used. Emission Factors are different for combustion than for flaring due to the different combustion qualities of the processes. Fuel usage in SCF is converted to tonnes with the following conversion factors to derive tonnes pollutant per tonne of fuel burnt: • 0.04 lb/SCF; and • 0.000454 lb of gas/tonne. A3.6.1.1 Emission Factors The emission factors used for calculating the atmospheric emissions attributable to the combustion and flaring during operations are shown in the Table A3.24 and are taken from the source noted.
