Sour Gas Plant -
Lator Area
ASCENT engineered a new greenfield sour gas processing facility designed to process 175 MMSCFD of sour gas, 16,500 bpd of condensate, and 20,000 bpd of produced water. The facility includes inlet separation, compression, amine sweetening, dehydration, sales gas delivery to PGI’s pipeline system, condensate stabilization, produced water handling, lift and fuel gas systems, vapor recovery, flare systems, utilities, backup power, and integration with an onsite LACT for condensate delivery.
Sour Gas Processing Facility - South Kaybob Area
ASCENT engineered a new greenfield compressor and gas processing facility near Fox Creek. The facility was designed to process 220 MMSCFD of sour gas, 16,000 bbl/d of natural gas liquids (NGL’s) and 13,000 bbl/d of produced water. The project was fast tracked and early collaboration with the client’s execution team was instrumental in successful completion of the project. Complete engineering from Pre-FEED to final design, including all discipline engineering, in house design, procurement, project management and construction administration was executed for this project.
Sour Gas Plant -
South Kaybob Area
ASCENT supported the upfront project development including but not limited to extensive process engineering & simulations work for FEED. This Greenfield sour gas plant on a brownfield location near Fox Creek involved various discipline engineering expertise which were instrumental in showcasing Ascents now recognized capabilities in gas engineering. The facility was designed to process 150 MMSCFD of sour gas, 6445 bbl/d of natural gas liquids (NGL’s) and 2515 bbl/d of produced water.
Sour Oil Battery - Wembley/Pipestone Area
ASCENT provided development engineering support to its client and engineered a grassroots sour oil battery processing multi-phase production for a new Montney land play. The Battery is in a populated area near Grande Prairie and has a number of unique features designed to minimize emissions and ensure the health and safety of site personnel and area residents. The battery was designed to 5,000 BBL/D Condensate/Oil, 10,000 BBL/D Produced Water, 38 MMSCFD Gas Compression.
Blending Projects
ASCENT delivers blending facilities within existing plants and as standalone greenfield developments. Our designs support offloading, storage, and fully automated blending of multiple commodities, including butane, heavy oil, and high-chloride streams, integrated with existing sales products such as condensate and light sweet oil. We provide efficient, flexible solutions tailored to meet product specifications and operational requirements.
Slave Lake Area Oil Terminal and Pembina Heavy Oil LACT
ASCENT engineered a greenfield heavy oil terminal, along with subsequent expansions, capable of inline blending 100,000+ bpd of heavy oil, extra heavy oil, condensate and butane to meet Pembina sales oil specifications. The facility receives heavy oil via pipeline and tanker trucks with onsite storage for heavy oil, extra heavy oil, condensate, emulsion, produced water and butane. In addition to heavy oil blending, the facility can treat up to 5000 bpd of trucked in emulsion. As part of the overall area development, we designed two Producer inlet pipelines, a sales oil pipeline, a Producer LACT and a Pembina onsite LACT.

Montney Multi-Well Pads
ASCENT has designed greenfield well pad facilities and has been involved in brownfield expansions and MOC project work as well. Typical gathering system expansion projects consisting of sour greenfield well pads and brownfield well additions. Well pad design includes inlet separator packages, gas lift line heater, and high pressure/low pressure flare stacks. Pads have on site storage for produced water which is pumped to pipeline. Design Capacities are up to 16 wells per pad.
Sour Gas Processing Facility - Resthaven Area
ASCENT engineered a brownfield project with liquid handling, storage and processing capability. The sour facility was also expanded to to accommodate large slugs associated with an expanded gathering pipeline system running through mountainous terrain. Engagement with operations from initiation to final design was instrumental in seamless delivery and commissioning of this project. Complete engineering from including FEED to final design were performed. All discipline engineering scope and in house designing was completed.
Sour Oil Battery:
Progress Area NW
ASCENT utilized our previous design for the Wembley oil battery as a basis, Our client moved forward with a second facility to support their Montney development in another area. ASCENT modified the Wembley oil battery design as required to suit the specific process conditions and fast tracked the project from initial long lead equipment purchases to the start of construction within 3 months.
Tony Creek Water Disposal
Facility
Greenfield water disposal facility receives produced water via pipeline and truck and includes onsite storage and processing. Water is injected into separate injection wells. The Inlet produced water rates of 9500 bbl/d.
Wembley Pipestone Area Sour
Gathering/Sales Pipeline System
ASCENT's project involved us installing approximately 12 km of 8” and 6” sour gathering and sales pipelines as well as frac water and fuel gas pipelines in populated farmland near Grande Prairie, AB in 2019. Gathering and sales system expansions were completed in 2022 including 10”, 8” and 6” pipelines.
Duvernay Multi-Well Pads
ASCENT has designed greenfield well pad facilities and has been involved in brownfield expansions and MOC project work as well. Typical sour multi-well pad design was developed in conjunction with client’s engineering and operations personnel for their Duvernay play in the Fox Creek, AB area. Well pad design includes sand separation, group and test separators, gas lift line heaters, flare system and on-site power generation.
