Phase 1: the pipeline gas demonstration plant. Quarterly technical progress report, July 1--September 30, 1978. [Westfield]
- comp.
On July 21, 1978, DOE announced that the Government would conduct a formal, competitive evaluation of Continental Oil Company's project and the Illinois Coal Gasification Group's project. The evaluation process would be completed in October and it is likely that one of the projects would be terminated for the convenience of the Government. All required data, information, and position statements from Continental Oil Company were submitted within the required deadlines. The Design and Evaluation of a Commercial Plant was completed and reported to DOE. Continental Oil Company's Engineering Center has studied and reported four additional technical alternatives to the original design. These alternatives could reduce the cost of gas by $1.40 to $1.70 per million Btu with a moderate increase in the risk of technical failure. The environmental analysis program was continued at the slowdown rate established in January. The proprietary process license agreements for Phosam W Process and the SCOT process have been submitted to DOE for approval. A secrecy agreement for the Amoco Claus process has been submitted for comments before concluding a license agreement with Foster Wheeler Energy Corporation. The original Westfield Agreement was terminated on March 31, 1978, and a 2 1/2 month continuation was formulated under the Westfield II Agreement.
