Standardised Biomethane Connection Designs
Abstract
National Gas has seen a significant increase in the number of enquiries from biomethane developers for connections to the NTS.
There are currently circa 66 projects the connections team have identified as having NTS connection potential, with an associated volume of 5.9TWh per annum.
Developers are attracted to the NTS for numerous reasons, but the following are the main drivers:
- No injection of propane or odorant
- Capacity and capability
To speed up time to connect to a biomethane facility this project was developed to produce an innovative standardised design for a Minimum Offtake Connection (MOC) in a pit.
