Application:
Low Pressure Pipeline Compressor
Location:
North Dakota
Objective:
Install a number of low pressure pipeline compressors along the pipeline to allow additional tie-in points for customers (solution gas)
Compass Solution:
Compass Compression evaluated the application and proposed large screw compressor packages vs multistage reciprocating compressor packages to minimize initial capital, operating and maintenance costs. A Waukesha stoichiometric engine was selected due to the rich fuel gas available.
