Project Description

Propak provided detailed engineering and design, procurement and fabrication services to build a 30,000 bbl/d Depropanizer Unit and a 9,000 bbl/d Debutanizer Unit. Propak’s stacked design, modularization strategy, and ability to trial-fit large modules in a shop environment minimized field construction time, reducing overall project cost and schedule. Propak’s unique module design allowed for improved access to all equipment in a reduced plot area compared to the previous fractionation train installed at this site. This unit will produce Propane products that exceed the HD-5 propane specifications.
