THE MOST SOPHISTICATED FIELD GAS PROCESSING SOLUTION AVAILABLE TO THE INDUSTRY TODAY
To continue innovating with the changing industry, Frac Shack Inc. has developed and introduced the NG SideKickTM. The SideKickTM is the industry’s most sophisticated on-pad gas processing unit that takes in-field natural gas and processes it down to a safe and usable state for multiple uses on any location.
The SideKickTM depressurizes, heats, and removes liquids and hydrocarbons from field natural gas to ensure the gas is safe and available for use in any natural gas or bi-fuel engine on a hydraulic fracturing location. This technology enables Frac Shack’s customers to use their own energy on site, reducing the need to flare off clean burning natural gas.
Additionally, the use of natural gas significantly reduces the need for diesel fuel, with substitution rates from 40 – 70% on large frac sites. The Generation 2 NGSideKickTM has increased capacity to power a natural gas turbine used for Electric Frac Fleets.
