Innovative recover of waste heat in SAGD plants

Turboden ORC technology offers significant advantages for the Oil & Gas industry by recovering heat in Steam Assisted Gravity Drainage (SAGD) facilities. In these plants, the produced gas stream represents a source of waste heat that is currently released into the atmosphere.

The ORC system, thanks to the features of the organic working fluid employed, is able to exploit the heat content from low-temperature waste streams, like the produced gas, and convert this into emission-free electricity directly on site, reducing the facility’s dependence on the grid and lowering operating costs.

Beyond economic benefits, the integration of Turboden ORC solution significantly boosts the environmental sustainability of the plant. It enables the facility to decrease greenhouse gas emissions and minimize energy waste.

WHY TURBODEN ORC TECHNOLOGY IS THE SMART CHOICE FOR SAGD FACILITIES?

  • Waste Heat Recovery
    Transform unused thermal energy from SAGD processes into clean electricity, maximizing energy efficiency without additional fuel consumption.
  • Carbon-Free Power Generation (GHG Emissions Reduction)
    Produce electricity on-site with zero emissions, offsetting your facility’s energy needs while improving sustainability supporting your decarbonization strategy.
  • Grid Independence 
    By eliminating production interruptions resulting from grid power bumps and outages; improving plant reliability
  • OPEX Stability
    Secure long-term energy cost predictability by stabilizing electricity prices and reducing exposure to market volatility.
  • Positive Impact on Project Economics
    ORC systems can qualify for GHG-related incentives and sustainability-linked financing, enhancing the financial viability of your energy recovery project.
  • Water-Free Operation
    Turboden’s ORC systems use an organic working fluid, eliminating the need for water and simplifying integration in water-sensitive environments.
  • Easy Integration
    Modular and compact, ORC units can be seamlessly retrofitted into existing facilities or incorporated into new plant designs with minimal disruption.
