Amec Foster Wheeler awarded syngas-to-liquids project in US
Amec Foster Wheeler has signed an agreement with D’Arcinoff Group, a US-based investment and alternative technology development company, to provide engineering and technical services for an integrated 30,000 bpd syngas-to-liquids facility, known as the West Texas Renewable and Gas Monetisation Project in Hudspeth County, Texas. The facility will primarily produce jet fuels.
The contract value for the competitively awarded project was not disclosed.
The West Texas Renewable and Gas Monetisation Project is part of the D’Arcinoff Group Energy Program, an environmentally clean, natural gas and biomass-to liquid-fuel and power generation initiative.
Amec Foster Wheeler’s scope of work includes engineering design and definition work utilizing key process technology and equipment suppliers, as well as execution planning activities for the facility that will use biomass gasification combined with West Texas shale gas to feed a Fischer Tropsch process unit to produce jet fuel.
Simon Naylor, Group President Americas, said: “This award confirms our combined technical expertise in gasification, gas monetization and gas-to-liquids projects following separate work streams. Foster Wheeler completed the initial feasibility study for the new jet fuel facility, and separately, Amec had worked with some of the key process technology suppliers included in the plans for this innovative project.”
