Project Description

Propak provided a turnkey EPFC solution for this thermal SAGD facility. This plant was largely based on Propak’s 6,000 bbl/d standard facility template. Development began with pre-FEED and FEED phases validating the concept and fit of this facility. The modular design was successfully adjusted to fit this application providing an opportunity for streamlined EPFC execution. This facility, consisting of 117 modules, was engineered, fabricated and constructed over an industry leading duration of less than 14 months from project sanction to first steam.
