HOUSTON, May 20 -- Husky Oil Operations Ltd., a unit of Calgary-based Husky Energy Inc. has awarded engineering firm Peter Brotherhood Ltd. (PBL) of Peterborough, UK, for the supply of a reciprocating gas compressor for Husky's 10,250 b/d refinery at Prince George, BC.
PBL will design, manufacture, install, and commission the $1 million (Can.) hydrogen compressor system as part of Husky's clean fuels program; the partially skid-mounted compressor will be used to remove sulfur from produced gasoline. Low-pressure hydrogen feed will be compressed to 25 bar and then fed into a hydrotreater.
Husky has selected Montreal-based SNC-Lavalin Inc. to conduct the project's procurement and installation work. Equipment is slated for delivery to the site in November.
