Light-ends Recovery

 

CB&I's saturate and unsaturate gas plants provide effective recovery and separation of hydrocarbon gases from refinery streams. We supply plants that utilize compression, absorption and/or distillation to meet refiners' vapor recovery specifications.

We provide complete engineering, procurement, fabrication and construction services for new gas plant installations, expansions or retrofits. Our projects have included saturate gas plants for recovering gases such as methane, ethane, propane and butane from light ends. We've also supplied unsaturate gas plants for recovering light hydrocarbons from wet gas streams.

Designing a better gas plant. In designing each plant, we evaluate the specific project requirements and recommend the technology that will best serve the customer's needs. Our engineers are experienced in a broad range of process technologies and all aspects of structural and process design, piping, electrical systems and code specifications. Their technical expertise and innovative designs translate into reliable plant performance and greater long-term value for our customers.

We are known for our ability to execute projects virtually anywhere. With locations worldwide, we can quickly marshal the people, materials and equipment for our projects. Our people understand the regulations and business practices of the communities where we work, so they can assist with everything from front-end permitting and compliance support through startup services. We direct hire and train local workers whenever possible, providing a rich source of skilled labor and benefiting the community.

Working safely and efficiently. When it comes to field erection, we are one of the best in the business. Our in-house construction technology experts provide construction engineering and consulting services to our project teams and customers worldwide. We constantly seek better methods, tools and equipment for safely erecting high quality structures more efficiently. And we've developed specialized equipment for performing heavy lifts in congested work areas and rigging techniques to make elevated work safer.

Shell Haven - Naphtha Minus Complex (NMC)

The Naphtha Minus Complex project was a "fast track" engineering, procurement and construction project that was added to the Shell Haven refinery to enhance its ability to produce unleaded gasoline.

  • Large, complex modularization project
  • Fast track project that enhanced gasoline quality
