DES PLAINES, Ill., Nov. 20, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Honeywell
(NYSE: HON) today announced that
EagleClaw Midstream Ventures, LLC will use UOP Russell modular
cryogenic equipment to process 200 million standard cubic feet per
day of natural gas at its gas processing facility in the Permian
Basin in Reeves County, Texas.
UOP Russell customized the gas processing plant for the
West Texas location, including a
modular design that reduces project schedules and delivers a
custom, gas-specific plant with proven uptime and reliability.
"EagleClaw has chosen to go with UOP Russell for its last three
plants -- totaling 600 million cubic feet per day -- due to
excellent project execution and service offerings, and the
advantages of integrating EagleClaw's existing fleet of UOP Russell
plants," said Craig Ranta, business
director, UOP Russell. "We're delivering a customized plant to
match the rich feed gas composition in the basin, while the high
NGL recovery makes EagleClaw more competitive capturing contracts
from producers."
Cryogenic gas processing plants cool natural gas until the
heavier and more valuable NGLs form into liquids. These liquids –
including propane, ethane and butanes -- can be used as fuels, fuel
blending components and other valuable petrochemicals.
The plant is designed to accommodate the NGL-rich gas in the
Permian's Delaware Basin. Its low
capital and operating expense, coupled with high NGL recovery,
allowed EagleClaw to offer gas producers more favorable processing
terms, positioning the company to recover high levels of NGLs as
prices for them continue to rise.
According to the U.S. Energy Information Administration, U.S.
production of ethane will increase from about 1.25 million barrels
per day (b/d) last year to 1.7 million b/d in 2018. The increased
ethane produced is forecast to be consumed by the U.S.
petrochemical industry and exported to other countries.
EagleClaw Midstream Ventures, LLC is headquartered in
Midland, Texas, and develops
midstream infrastructure opportunities in the Permian Basin of
West Texas. EagleClaw provides
natural gas and crude oil producers with a wide array of midstream
services including gathering, compression, treating, processing and
transportation.
