DENVER--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Evolution Midstream, LLC, a leading provider of flexible midstream and ancillary services to oil and gas producers, today announced that it has broken ground on its Jewell Facility, a natural gas processing plant in Converse County, Wyoming in the heart of the Powder River Basin (PRB).
Strategically located nearby Evolution’s existing infrastructure in the PRB, the Jewell Facility will feature innovative processing technology unique to the region. Scheduled to commence operations in the fourth quarter of 2018, the plant will initially provide 40 MMcf/day of processing capacity, increasing to 100 MMcf/day in 2019 to meet the growing needs of producers in the region. The facility will include a 4,500-barrel per day fractionation and stabilization train designed to extract purity propane and provide stabilized condensate for sale in local and interstate markets. It will also offer residue gas connections to MIGC, WIC and interstate pipelines that extend to the Cheyenne Hub.
“The Powder River Basin continues to emerge as one of the most attractive oil plays in the Lower 48 and the Jewell Facility further solidifies Evolution’s leading position in the region,” said Raj Basi, CEO of Evolution Midstream. “The plant’s strategic location and innovative technology will differentiate our offering in the basin while allowing our team to better anticipate and reliably provide for our customers’ immediate and long-term gas-gathering and processing needs.”
