Mustang to Expand Hess Tioga Gas Plant

Hess Corporation has awarded a detailed design and procurement services contract to Mustang for the expansion of its Tioga natural gas plant in the Bakken oil play in North Dakota, US.

The aim of the project is to expand the capacity of the plant from 110 million cubic feet per day gas to 250 million cubic feet per day.

The cryogenic gas plant will be designed for ethane recovery, full fractionation and sales of natural gas liquids.

Mustang has completed the engineering design for Hess’s Elon / Okume project, and all three facility expansions as part of Hess’s ROZ/WBD project in West Texas and New Mexico, including the Seminole gas processing plant.

Engineering design services are scheduled to be completed in the second quarter 2012.
