SELECTED STUDY AND EVALUATION PROJECTS

Chevron Research and Technology - Tengiz, Kazakhstan

• Design of a high-volume (250 MMSCFD) high-pressure (9000 psia) sour gas (16% H2S, 5% CO2) injection scheme. Generation of methods for estimating physical properties and phase equilibria encountered in the process.

Encana - Deep Panuke, NS

• Preliminary design of an offshore acid gas injection scheme to inject 4.5 MMSCFD of acid gas with an approximate composition of 25% H2S and 75% CO2.
• Study included compressor design (1200 HP), phase equilibrium calculations and water content.
• Scenarios studied included blending the acid gas with condensate prior to injection.

IPE Bolivia SRL - Santa Cruz, Bolivia

• Multiphase pipeline simulation.
• Pipeline simulations to increase gas production from 2 MMSCFD to 16 MMSCFD including five compressor stations and pipeline looping.

Solex Energy Inc. - Edmonton

• Conceptual process design for purification (COS and mercaptans) and fractionation of a 30000 bbl/d condensate stream to yield propane, butane and heavier fractions.
