The Department of Energy's Office of Fossil Energy and Carbon Management awarded a $8,368,433 Cooperative Agreement under the Fossil Energy Research and Development program (CFDA 81.089) to Pioneer Energy Inc. in Lakewood, CO. The objective of this project is to continue development of the Emission Control Treater (ECT), a new well pad processing technology that uses a fundamentally different process to achieve better separation, replacing existing equipment and eliminating nearly all emission sources on the pad. The ECT technology aims to replace fired heater treaters through electrification or consolidation to a single fired heater with emission controls, eliminate tank vapors through improved crude stabilization, and reduce the need for internal combustion engine driven compression. This modular, skid-based prefabricated process is designed to simplify operations and improve capital utilization through redeployment as production changes. The award has a performance period from November 30, 2024 to November 29, 2025.
