GENERON® IGS Awarded Contract for New Nitrogen Generator Package in China
Houston, Texas January 21, 2005 – GENERON® IGS, an affiliate of Innovative Gas Systems, has recently been awarded a
contract to supply a Nitrogen Generator package to Xinjiang Oil Field Co. of PetroChina Corp. The system design includes a
Primary Electrically Driven Air Compressor, a GENERON® IGS Nitrogen Membrane Generator, and an Electrically Driven Booster Package.
GENERON® IGS was selected as the supplier of this package due to being the recognized leader in the industry of packaged
on-site Nitrogen Generators. During its history, GENERON® IGS has supplied thousands of Nitrogen units worldwide for
various applications in the Oil and Gas, Marine and Industrial Markets. This particular NPU (Nitrogen Production Unit)
will be used for EOR (enhanced oil recovery) for the Heavy Oil branch Company of Xinjiang Oil Field Company.
The GENERON® IGS NPUs, whether skid mounted or containerized, are stand-alone systems that use GENERON® IGS membrane
technology to provide an uninterrupted supply of gaseous nitrogen to purities from 95 – 99.5%, without the inconvenience
and expense of pipeline or truck delivery of liquid gas, gas cylinders or liquid Dewar tanks. With the GENERON® IGS units,
offshore as well as onshore facilities are eliminating their dependence on outside suppliers of Nitrogen. Nitrogen is
generated on site, requiring only a supply of compressed air. With flow and purity adjustable at the push of a button, a
GENERON® IGS NPU allows operators full control of their own Nitrogen supply.
The Heavy Oil Branch of Xinjiang Oil Field Co. has a number of injection stations that will utilize the GENERON® IGS
Nitrogen Technology to enhance the wells production capacity. The NPU will be located nearby the boiler station and
N2 production will be mixed with steam and then injected into the oil wells.
