For reference:
An oxygen concentrator is an apparatus for separating oxygen molecules from the surrounding atmosphere, concentrating them and delivering as a stream of pure oxygen.
It is used during oxygen therapy – the patient is supplied with oxygen in a higher concentration than in the atmosphere. It is used as an alternative to compressed oxygen, as it is safer and more efficient per liter.

The Future Growth Project-Wellhead Pressure Management Project (FGP-WPMP) are two integrated projects implemented by TCO simultaneously. FGP-WPMP implementation will allow an increase in Tengiz crude oil production capacity by approximately 12 million tonnes per year or 260,000 barrels per day and the overall Tengiz crude oil production capacity will be approximately 39 million tonnes per year or 850,000 barrels per day. While FGP implementation will expand production, WPMP will keep the existing Tengiz plants at full capacity by lowering wellhead pressure and boosting the pressure of the six existing processing trains.
