 Gas Processing
AMEC Paragon has designed and managed construction of every type of gas processing facility in use, including dehydration, H2S and CO2 removal, hydrocarbon dew point control, liquefied natural gas (LNG), liquefied petroleum gas (LPG), compressed natural gas (CNG), natural gas liquids (NGL), import and export terminals, and liquefaction systems – often for offshore application. Projects include:
- Pluspetrol’s Camisea cryogenic NGL plant, LPG plant, and marine terminal in Peru.
- Floating CNG work with EnerSea
- Sour gas processing platforms for Shell, Unocal, and BP in the Gulf of Mexico
- Planned LNG plants on the US Gulf Coast
- Studies for offshore LNG regasification

 Heavy Oil
AMEC has supported numerous heavy oil treatment projects as well as large-scale oil sands developments. Scopes range from processing of bottom-of-the-barrel to upgrading of heavy oils. Examples include:
- Application of advanced in-situ steam-assisted gravity drainage (SAGD) recovery, heavy oil upgrade, and advanced heavy oil gasification technologies
- The Aurora, Athabasca, and Kearl oil sands developments in Canada
Example project details

 Renewable Energy
Renewable resources are key to carbon footprint minimization and long-term sustainability. Pioneering AMEC Paragon and global AMEC work in this area includes:
- Scotland’s Beatrice offshore wind turbine pilot project and a planned US installation
- Ethanol production technology – with a major energy company as the sponsor
- Other proposed biomass-to-liquid fuels projects
