Twister presented a paper at GPA 2008 Annual Conference at Grapevine, Texas on the 5th March 2008. The paper presented the latest results of a third party study which compared Twister versus Joule Thompson expansion (JT-LTS) for efficient NGL recovery. The paper also explains how Twister is able to outperform both turbo-expanders and JT-LTS systems for NGL recovery, without the use of hydrate inhibition chemicals, for gases with varying water contents. The presentation was well attended and stimulated significant interest.
