Onshore gas production

Onshore gas.
Recover the pressure value.

Convert gas pressure energy and available waste heat into useful electrical power at production, gathering and gas-treatment facilities.

WEX² integrated pressure energy recovery system

The opportunity

Put a required
pressure drop to work.

WEX²® recovers a significant part of the pressure energy available in wellhead, gathering and treatment systems. The turboexpander converts over 80% of the available gas expansion energy into shaft power. Integrating available waste heat through the feed-gas heater increases electrical output. The installation is engineered for the facility’s gas conditions, downstream requirements and electrical interfaces.

How WEX²® works
01

Production interfaces

Evaluate pressure reduction between the incoming gas system and the required treatment or delivery conditions.

02

Waste-heat conversion

Transfer available process waste heat into the gas upstream of the turboexpander and recover it as additional electrical power.

03

Useful local power

Compare recovered generation with site demand, electrical infrastructure and any available export arrangement.

Project development

Built around
your operating reality.

A project-specific assessment establishes recoverable power, process effects and the preferred integration concept.

  • Feed-gas conditions

    Composition, liquids, solids and water influence conditioning and the equipment specification.

  • Operating profile

    Flow range, interruptions and future production forecasts determine annual recovery potential.

  • Site interfaces

    Tie-ins, heat supply, electrical connection and controls need clear battery limits and responsibilities.

Delivery

The right route
for the project.

For suitable onshore assets, a dedicated project company can develop, finance, own and operate the agreed WEX²® installation. Commercial terms and customer-side scope are established case by case.
