DES PLAINES, Ill., Dec. 12, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Honeywell
(NYSE: HON) today announced that its UOP Russell business will
provide a 200-million-cubic-foot-per-day gas processing plant to
Cogent Midstream, LLC. When completed late next year, the new plant
will extract valuable natural gas liquids (NGLs) from natural gas
produced from several counties in the Wolfcamp Formation of the
Permian Basin in Texas.
Honeywell will design and supply a UOP Russell
modular cryogenic plant with refrigeration and dehydration
units. The plant design streamlines project schedules and
is customized for the unique gas composition in the Basin.
"Cogent Midstream selected the UOP Russell plant because it is a
proven and reliable technology, and because the modular design
vastly reduces the time before the plant can go into production,"
said Neil Eckersley, UOP Russell
general manager at Honeywell. "With the addition of this new plant,
Cogent's processing capacity at its Big Lake Plant will increase to
400 million cubic feet per day."
How it works
Cryogenic gas processing plants cool natural gas until the
heavier and more valuable NGLs form into valuable liquids including
propane, ethane and butanes that can be used as fuels, fuel
blending components and other valuable petrochemicals. The plants
are built in modules in controlled factory conditions and shipped
by truck to remote locations where they are quickly and easily
assembled. This significantly reduces construction time and
expense, enhances reliability after start-up, and enables customers
to begin processing gas and earning revenue more quickly than with
field-constructed plants.
The plant is designed to accommodate the NGL-rich gas in the
Wolfcamp Formation. Its low capital and operating expense and high
NGL recovery enable Cogent to meet producer processing needs, while
also ensuring downstream pipeline specifications are met.
Cogent operates the largest private greenfield gathering and
processing system in the Southern Midland Basin. Approximately 650
miles of pipeline and three active processing plants serve
Coke, Crockett, Glasscock, Irion, Mitchell, Reagan, Schleicher, Sterling
and Tom Green counties. Cogent's customers represent many of
the most active drillers in the Permian Basin.
