Application:
Gas gathering, sweet natural gas
Location:
Permian Basin, West Texas
Objective:
Compass designed a single-stage, two-throw, 1004 HP, reciprocating compressor package. A shaft-driven, forced-draft, aftercooler to suit high summer ambient temperatures was mounted separately to the three piece skid package.
Design Challenges:
The client required fast delivery of several new gathering packages to increase their volumes.
Compass Solution:
The experienced team at the Brittmoore Road facility recently completed more than 25 gas gathering packages for this client. We purchased CAT 3606 engines, and with the engineering and design complete we easily met the quick delivery requirements. This enabled the client to capture additional volumes and meet their customers’ demands.
