Liquified Petroleum Gas (L.P.G.) in your gas stream can be a nuisance, (if the hydrocarbon dew point is slightly over specification) or a significant source of revenue if the gas is rich in heavier hydrocarbons.

ALCO Gas & Oil has over twenty-five years of experience in the engineering design and fabrication of plants to remove these hydrocarbons.

We can custom design and fabricate modular plants to extract C3+ or C5+. Fractionation facilities an be designed to produce C3+ products as required.

 

There are more than two hundred plants designed and fabricated by ALCO Gas & Oil Production Equipment Ltd. in service at this time. These units range in size from 500,000 SCFD (15 x 10³ m³/d) to 100,000,000 SCFD (3,000 x 10³ m³/d).

The ALCO team offers:

  EXPERIENCE with over 200 units operating successfully.
  ALTERNATIVES for removing the L.P.G.; vary from relatively simple Joule Thompson (J.T.) or choke plants, through refrigeration plants to highly sophisticated packages (such as lean oil absorption or turbo expander processes) recovering in excess of 90% of the propane plus components. In order to select the appropriate process, it is necessary to know the value of each product stream (including the gas stream) and the utility costs (including fuel gas). If costs are provided, ALCO Gas & Oil can recommend an optimum design based on capital cost, operating costs and the time value of money. All of these processes would include dehydration of the gas stream (and in some instances the liquid hydrocarbon streams).
OPTIONS offered routinely include inlet separation and/or slug catching, inlet compression, recycling of de-ethanizer or stabilizer overheads, hot oil or hot glycol heater, fractionation of the L.P.G. product, power generation, flare system, metering, control (i.e. remote, local, computer, etc.), gas engine drive or electric motor, and spares.
MODULAR DESIGN to meet specific transportation and/or installation requirements.
SUPPORT SERVICE program for instruction and operations.
