English

Subject field(s)
  • Oil and Natural Gas Extraction
CONT

The pipeline is being designed with the potential, with the installation of 11 additional compressor stations and other facilities, to expand from an initial capacity of 1. 2 Bcf/d [billion cubic feet per day] to an expansion capacity of 1. 8 Bcf/d. This expansion capacity scenario would proceed only if additional natural gas fields, other than that of the anchor fields, were discovered, developed and put into production, probably involving parties other than, or at least in addition to, any of the proponents.

Domaine(s)
  • Extraction du pétrole et du gaz naturel
CONT

Le pipeline est conçu de manière à ce que l'on puisse accroître à 1,8 Gpi³/j [milliards de pieds cubes par jour] sa capacité initiale de 1,2 Gpi³/j par la mise en place de 11 stations de compression supplémentaires ainsi que d'autres installations. Ce scénario d'accroissementde la capacité de production ne se réaliserait que si des champs gaziers supplémentaires, autres que les champs d'ancrage, étaient découverts, mis en valeur et mis en production, probablement par des partenaires autres que l'un ou l'autre des promoteurs, ou du moins en collaboration avec ces derniers.

Mackenzie Gas Project proposes to develop natural gas fields in the Mackenzie Delta of Canada's Northwest Territories and deliver the natural gas and natural gas liquids to markets in Canada and the United States. The Project consists of five major parts :• three natural gas field production facilities • a gathering pipeline system • a gas processing facility near Inuvik(the Inuvik area facility) • a natural gas liquids pipeline from the Inuvik area facility to Norman Wells • a natural gas pipeline from the Inuvik area facility to northwestern Alberta.

Le projet gazier Mackenzie (PGM) est un projet sans précédent dans l'histoire du Nord, que ce soit en raison de sa taille, de sa portée ou des possibilités qu'il présente pour les résidants du Nord et toute la population canadienne. Le PGM consisterait en la construction d'installations et l'exploitation de trois champs de gaz naturel dans le delta du Mackenzie, situé dans les Territoires du Nord Ouest; l'établissement d'un réseau collecteur de gaz naturel et de liquides de gaz naturel; la construction d'installations de traitement près d'Inuvik; et l'aménagement de pipelines qui transporteront le gaz naturel et les liquides de gaz naturel vers le sud, le long de la vallée du Mackenzie.

[Some proposed] gas-fired electric generation plants in the Pacific Northwest, the Southwest region and Mexico [are expected to] consume approximately 1865 mmcf/d, which surpasses California’s receipt capacity. Likewise, upstream demand for natural gas in Nevada and Arizona is increasing, which will eventually consume existing pipeline supply capacity that is currently being channeled to California.

One of the major problems facing bitumen producers is the need to dilute the bitumen with condensate in order to meet pipeline specifications for density and viscosity. Partial upgrading to meet these specifications, that could be done on a relatively small scale and close to the production facilities or within the reservor, is an attractive proposition. In this regard, two novel methods are... the(HC) 3 or high conversion/hydrocracking/homogenous catalyst process, developed by the Alberta Research Council, and adapted to partially upgraded bitumen...

Un des plus grands problèmes auxquels ont fait face les exploitants des sables bitumineux vient de la nécessité de diluer le bitume avec des condensats pour obtenir un produit dont la densité et la viscosité respectent les exigences du transport par pipeline. Une valorisation partielle qui assurerait la conformité des produits à ces exigences et serait réalisable à une échelle relativement réduite à proximité des installations de production ou directement à l'intérieur du réservoir présenterait un intérêt manifeste. Deux nouvelles méthodes pourraient répondre à ces critères [...] le procédé (HC)3 également connu sous le nom de procédé haute conversion/hydrocraquage/catalyseur homogène, mis au point par l'Alberta Research Council et adapté pour le traitement du bitume partiellement valorisé [...]

Subject field(s)
  • Storage of Oil and Natural Gas
CONT

Natural gas is most commonly stored under pressure in three different types of underground facilities. The most common type of storage facility is depleted oil and natural gas fields. Converting a field from production to storage has the advantage of existing infrastructure such as wells, gathering systems, and pipeline connections. The second most common type of natural gas storage facility is natural aquifers, which are frequently used in the Midwest. Natural aquifers are suitable for gas storage if water-bearing sedimentary rock is overlain with an impermeable cap rock but usually require more base gas than depleted oil fields. Caverns constructed in natural salt deposits are the third most common type of storage facility and are used primarily along the Gulf Coast.
