SX-NGL Tool
The Vortex surface natural gas liquid (SX-NGL) recovery tool allows the user to recover up to 10 times more natural gas liquids than pigging or drip systems, all with marginal impact to the btu value of the gas (7 to 12 BTU). There are additional “non-revenue” benefits from the Vortex SX-NGL, such as reduced pigging, lower methanol use, reduced hydrate formation and line freeze-up prevention. This SX-NGL tool can also serve as an interim solution for NGL plays where processing or pipeline solutions are incomplete or inadequate. With no intervention or maintenance required, customer experience has shown these SX-NGL tools have an ROI of less than 30 days. A 15-month case study on these NGL recovery tools can be found here. The NGL brochure can be found here. If you’re ready to submit a surface input form and to start enjoying the benefits of enhanced NGL recovery, you can do so here. The Vortex team will run your numbers on its proprietary surface calculator and will respond to you (typically within 48 hours) with a prediction on the expected benefits by adding the Vortex tools to your line. Accurate data is necessary for an accurate prediction of application success. |
