Increasing Pipeline Capacity - Without Building New Pipelines
Privately-held Fractal Systems says it's now ready for "commercial deployment" of its partial upgrading technology in the oil sands. From August 2016 to August 2017, the company ran a 1,000 bbl/day demonstration plant near the town of Provost, Alberta. Over 225,000 barrels of bitumen were partially upgraded using the company's Enhanced JetShear and Acid Reduction Process (ARP).
