Product Overview

Overview

Fluidstream’s patented multiphase pump is a robust, fully autonomous technology that can be used for vapor recovery (VaporCommander™) and multiphase liquid/gas boosting (BoosterCommander™) applications.

Cost-effective pricing and reduced service/maintenance cycles enhance project economics in vapour recovery and multiphase liquid/gas boosting applications.

Business Model

Low Cost and Quicker Payout

VaporCommander™ low cost provides a maximum rate of return and reduces the total ownership cost. Similar price as combustors in low-flow applications, with the additional ability of keeping gas instead of burning it.

BoosterCommander™ is the most cost-competitive multiphase technology available that provides maximum return on investment while reducing total cost of ownership.

Technology Innovations

Low Cost and Quicker Payout

VaporCommander™ low cost provides a maximum rate of return and reduces the total ownership cost. Similar price as combustors in low-flow applications, with the additional ability of keeping gas instead of burning it.

Broad Operating Range

100% turndown offers a significantly greater flow operating range without the need for any mechanical recirculation configurations. VaporCommander™ handles a large range of line pressure.

Multiphase Operation

Patented multiphase operation can handle up to 100% liquids or any combination of liquids and gas without a scrubber. Gas volume fractions (GVF) between 0 and 100 %.

Fully Autonomous with Comprehensive Controls

Works autonomously to achieve operator-defined operational targets. Features comprehensive controls to configure for any complex or upset condition. Very well suited for vapor recovery applications with varying flow, line pressure, and liquid content.

Low Maintenance

The simple and robust design and comprehensive controls ensure significantly reduced maintenance cycles.

Portability

Does not require rigid support for operation. Trailer-mounted units are available.

Multiphase Patent

Fluidstream has developed and secured a multiphase patent that provides the only safe, efficient, reliable, and optimal way to handle incompressible liquids in a compression chamber.

Applications

Better Vapor Recovery Technology Required to Meet Emissions Reduction Targets

  • More stringent emissions regulations require need for better vapor recovery solutions
  • Cheaper and easier to “burn” gas than keep since vapor recovery compression can be costly and problematic
  • Variable flow, wet gas, and liquid surges make conventional vapor recovery units difficult to operate and maintain
  • O&G industry needs better vapor recovery compression technology to effectively and economically reduce methane and GHG emissions

Fluidstream VaporCommander™ Meets ALL Unmet Industry VRU Needs

  • Low Cost
  • Multiphase operation effectively handles up to 100% liquids
  • Low Maintenance
  • Broad Operating Range (flow and line pressures)
  • Less operator involvement through autonomous control
