Kinder Morgan CO2 Company - Texas, USA
- Kinder Morgan CO2 Company is the leading U.S. transporter and marketer of carbon dioxide for Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR). A key asset, the SACROC Unit located in West Texas, is one of the largest oilfields and one of the oldest operating CO2 capture and injection projects in the U.S.
- The SACROC Unit processes over 620 MMSCFD of gas for CO2 capture and injection while recovering over 30,000 bpd of oil and 15,000 bpd of NGL liquids. Kinder Morgan desired to maximize production and thus requested Gas Liquids Engineering Ltd. to carryout the following two projects:
- Capacity Increase Project
- Expansion Project
