Exhaust Gas System (EGS)
Exhaust gas compression is a proven technology to provide a cost effective and environmentally friendly solution to produce non-corrosive gas for injection. Services, utilizing exclusive patented technology, has designed and built automated and non-automated units for both reservoir and drilling applications.
Potential EGS Applications
Oil Reservoirs (Enhanced Oil Recovery)
- On average 65-70% of original oil in place is not recovered
- Flue gas injection could increase oil recoveries by 5-30%
- CO2 would mainly be sequestered safe storage
Gas Reservoirs (Enhanced Gas Recovery)
- 15-40% of original gas in place is not recovered
- Flue gas injection could increase recovery by 5-15%
- CO2 could then refill the reservoir to be stored
Carbon Storage in Aquifers (CCS)
- Very little is known about most aquifers, only a few suitable for CCS
- Need to prove aquifers are suitable before spending $B on Capture
Portable Exhaust Gas Systems
- Fuel sources either methane or propane
- 82% N2, 15% CO2, < 2% CO, < 75ppm O2
- Multiplies gas for geologic injection for a range of uses
- Also generates power to run additional equipment and compressors to get to higher pressures
- Wide range of operational parameters rate and pressure
- Minimal corrosion – key technology edge
- Significantly more efficient than trucking industrial gases to the sites
