Houston-based Well
Power is collaborating with Canadian company ME Resource Corp. to develop a
novel technology that addresses the billions of dollars lost each year in
flared natural gas.
Since 2000, gas
flaring in the United States has doubled. Aside from the tremendous cost of
wasted energy resources, gas flaring has also been known to pose adverse risks
to the environment and human populations’ quality of life. When excess natural
gas is burned, carbon dioxide is released into the air, which can have tremendous
implications for environmental integrity and human health. On a global scale,
the National Oceanic Administration Association reports gas flares pump around
400 million tons of carbon dioxide into the air, on the whole. That amounts to
emissions from 77 million cars and $10 billion in wasted natural resources.
Well Power and ME
Resource Corp.’s solution to this challenge is a mobile and scalable
Micro-Refinery Unit, which can be deployed close to wellheads and transform raw
natural gas into clean power and engineered fuels, including no-sulphur diesel
and diluents. For this novel solution, Well Power holds licensing rights in
Texas as well as the first right of refusal for other U.S. states.
The Micro-Refinery
Unit is to be made of an assembly of recognized commercial technologies with a
proprietary micro-reactor system for hydrocarbon processing and catalytic
reactions. With these components, the system will be able to process raw
natural gas flows of between 75 Mcf to 250 Mcf, by first conditioning and
converting methane and condensates into Syngas (CO and hydrogen). Thereafter,
the processing will progress to a Fischer-Tropsch reaction to produce liquid
fuel products and clean power, which will be produced from heat generated by
exothermic reactions and combustion. In short, the Micro-Refinery Unit will be
a mobile, cost-effective way for eliminating the tremendous wasted natural
resources and adverse risks associated with gas flaring.
In addition to
Texas, Well Power has expressed interest in extending the Micro-Refinery Unit
to Wyoming, Colorado, North Dakota, Oklahoma, and New Mexico. The company
recently hosted a successful webinar, which can be found on YouTube.
