A daughter booster station is a secondary facility often used in areas where direct pipeline access is limited. It receives gas or other fluids from a mother station and then boosts pressure to distribute it effectively over a specific region. This is particularly useful in ensuring consistent supply in remote locations.
FAQs & Answers
- What is the purpose of a daughter booster station? A daughter booster station boosts the pressure of gas or fluids received from a mother station to ensure effective distribution.
- How do daughter booster stations support remote areas? They ensure a consistent supply of gas in areas where direct pipeline access from mother stations is limited.
- What is a mother station in the context of gas distribution? A mother station is the primary facility that supplies gas or fluids to daughter booster stations, facilitating better distribution.
- Why is pressure boosting important in gas distribution? Pressure boosting is essential for overcoming distance and elevation changes in pipelines, ensuring reliable delivery of gas.
