Overview: This paper presents recent full load, full pressure field gas (ASME PTC-10 Class 1) test experiences and resolution of problems encountered on a high pressure barrel compressor. It is broken into three major sections. The first section includes a description of how the compressor is being applied as part of a high pressure gas injection train at Prudhoe Bay, Alaska. The second section describes the methods used to determine the full load, full pressure test configuration, test gas medium, and operating conditions. The final section discusses the actual test chronology and traces the methods used to identify the sources of the two vibration anomalies.
