Chart Industries' technology to be used for Blue Spruce Operating's Dry Piney helium and carbon sequestration project (U.S.)
Chart Industries was selected by Blue Spruce Operating LLC to provide the Nitrogen Rejection Unit (“NRU”) and helium process technology and associated equipment for their Dry Piney Helium and Carbon Sequestration Project to be located in Sublette County, Wyoming (U.S.). Recently, the NRU and helium plant front-end engineering and design was successfully completed by Chart.
“We are pleased to partner with Blue Spruce Operating on their unique and large-scale Dry Piney Helium and Carbon Sequestration Project,” stated Jill Evanko, Chart’s CEO and President. “We look forward to delivering this project on-time across the coming two years, as well as providing operational support to Blue Spruce over the many decades this project will be producing helium and other valuable products.”
“Chart Industries is an industry leader in cryogenic processing and technologies required for Blue Spruce Operating to separate, recover, and liquefy helium to purity grade for sale to our global customers,” stated Brad Gentry, Vice President – Midstream.
“Blue Spruce Operating continues to advance its design and commercial progress towards final investment decision. The completion of front-end engineering design for the NRU and helium plant packages represents a key milestone in the overall design effort. This strategic partnership, combined with Chart’s specialized technology offerings, will enable Blue Spruce to become a significant domestic resource for bulk liquid helium supplies and natural gas into the western U.S. Opal Hub market.”
At full operational capacity, the Dry Piney Project is anticipated to produce over 800 million cubic feet per year of bulk liquid helium, approximately 80 MMcfpd of natural gas, and permanently sequester up to 4.5 million metric tons of CO2 per year through the operation of two separate gas processing trains.
