The crude gas assisting production of crude oil undergoes an initial treatment on the offshore “Baltic-Beta” platform in the Baltic Sea (ca. 75 km from the shoreline). Some gas (ca. 10%) is utilised on the platform. Owing to the presence of significant quantities of propane and butane the gas is considered to be a "wet" gas and requires delivery under high pressure. After drying and compressing the gas up to 130 atmospheres, the gas is delivered by undersea pipeline to the gas separation station in the heat and power generating plant in Władysławowo.

Undersea gas pipeline
The most interesting element of the project is the system of gas supply to the shore. The gas is supplied by an undersea pipeline measuring 82,5 km in length and 115 mm in diameter laid under the sea bed. The pipeline was manufactured with the use of modern American technology by Precision Tube Technology from Houston. Steel polyethylene coated flexible coiled pipes (similar to electrical energy cables) were unreeled from the multi-purpose PETROBALTIC vessel in ca. 11-kilometre sections. They were joined and laid on the sea bed with the help of precise marine navigation systems. Next, the pipeline was refulated in the sea bed with the use of special marine equipment.

Heat and Power Generating Plant was equipped with two gas turbines of the Allison KB-7 type from the American Rolls-Royce Corporation brand operating in association with a hot water generator. The gas turbines can together generate electrical power to a total capacity of ca. 11 MWe and heat to a total capacity of up to 18 MWt. Gas blocks are very efficient systems constructed with the latest gas technology. 

Two gas waste boilers with the capacity of 8.85 MWe each, use hot combustion gases from the gas turbines to heat up water in the original circulation which on the counter-current heat exchangers transfer heat to the district heating system. Automatics enable regulation of the boiler capacity and the manner of combustion gas flow which follows from the changes of the heat demand of the inhabitants of Wladyslawowo. 

Three water boilers with a capacity of 5 MWt each shall operate as supplementary or reserve ones for the operation of waste gas - boilers in case of platform technical stoppage. Also they will operate during repair stoppage or stoppage of the gas turbines. The burner type enables burning of gas and light heating oil as well.

A set of heat exchangers with the capacity of 22 MWt enables the change of thermal parameters of the original circulation from the temperature of 160°C/80°C to the temperature of the district heating system operation, i.e. up to 130°C/70°C. The water which returns from the city system is treated by means of filters and counter-currently pumped through the heat exchangers where it heats up.
