Closed-Loop Gas Capture Trials in the Midland Basin

Presenters

Aaron Kessler and Thomas Rebenack
Ovintiv

Closed-loop gas capture (CLGC) offers a viable pathway for the oil and gas sector to reduce flaring, improve sustainability, and minimize environmental impact during midstream upsets. Instead of flaring gas during disruptions, this technology re-injects the gas for short term storage until the issue is resolved. Two recent trials in the Midland Basin demonstrated the feasibility and benefits of closed-loop systems, successfully storing and recovering significant volumes of gas. We will talk through Ovintiv's experience with the regulatory framework, candidate selection, trial results, and our learnings.
