Guizhou Kailin New Energy Coalbed Methane Liquefaction Project

Hours

50,000 Nm³/day Wellhead Gas Liquefaction | Turning Flaring Gas into Usable Resource

Project Overview

  • Location: Guizhou Province, China
  • Liquefaction Capacity: 50,000 Nm³/day
  • Client: Guizhou Kailin New Energy Co., Ltd.
  • Year: 2015

Background

As coalbed methane (CBM) development in Guizhou entered a critical well testing phase, large volumes of natural gas were flared due to a lack of immediate utilization solutions. This not only posed environmental and safety risks but also led to significant waste of clean energy. The client urgently needed a rapid-deployment, flexible liquefaction solution to efficiently capture and utilize short-term gas output from intermittent wells.

Our Solution

KATIANGAS provided a customized mobile natural gas liquefaction unit, independently developed and manufactured by our team. Deployed directly at the wellhead, the unit performs on-site dehydration, purification, liquefaction, and LNG storage/transport for CBM resources from low-output or fluctuating gas wells.

Its high integration, low energy consumption, and easy operation make it ideal for regions with unstable gas sources and limited infrastructure.

Technical Highlights

  • Modular Design: Fast deployment, easy relocation, and flexible scheduling
  • Full-Cycle Gas Utilization: Enables efficient gas capture even during well testing, eliminating conventional flaring
  • Dual Environmental and Economic Benefits: Converts previously flared gas into LNG, reducing emissions while enhancing resource value
  • Innovative Operational Management: Streamlines testing procedures, improving safety and overall project efficiency

Project Value

  • Achieved stable daily gas processing of 50,000 Nm³ during initial trial operation
  • Met dual goals of environmental compliance and energy value creation
  • Served as a pioneering CBM utilization model in Guizhou, offering a replicable path for future regional gas development
