We help our clients meet regulatory requirements, keeping oil flowing and improving the bottom line. The products produced by the Flarecatcher and Vaporcatcher produce additional revenue for the producer while also decreasing their costs of operation.
Flarecatcher - Associated Gas Capture & Monetization Services
Flarecatcher systems process associated gas streams of a wide range of energy content. The high-quality, de-ethanized NGL produced by the Flarecatcher is a valuable commodity and we can assist in marketing this product if desired. The pipeline quality lean dry gas produced by the Flarecatcher has high methane number and can power on-site loads, significantly reducing operating costs by reducing reliance on imported diesel fuel or propane. For sites with limited on-site power needs, Pioneer Energy can also provide a complete CNG or LNG solution, including marketing of the product, to fully monetize the gas and eliminate the flare.
Vaporcatcher - Tank Battery Vapor Capture & Monetization Services
Vaporcatcher systems capture and process tank battery vapors, providing extremely high NGL yield and superior economics. Our Vaporcatcher systems are offered at NO NET COST to the producer. The economics of deploying a Vaporcatcher are far superior to those for deploying a Vapor Recovery Unit (VRU) and injecting into a gathering system. If deployed to a site where tank vapors are currently being flared, the Vaporcatcher cuts total emissions by a factor of 4 and C4+ smoky combustion emissions by more than a factor of 12.
Pioneer Energy’s turn-key associated gas processing and tank battery vapor capture services include:
Pioneer Energy provides international customers with custom designed and built associated gas and tank battery vapor capture and processing solutions tailored to the unique conditions of their particular site and optimized for maximum return on investment. In addition to state-of-the-art FlarecatcherTM and VaporcatcherTM technologies, we also offer NGL distillation systems to allow producers to generate commercial propane, Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) and natural gas condensate to serve their local market. Depending upon the particular needs of our customers, we can add power generation as well as CNG compression solutions. On-site installation and training as well as ongoing remote operations, monitoring and technical support can also be provided.
