The oil producer’s new Capstone system will be used to provide clean electricity – fueled by “pipeline-quality” gas - for an oil and gas gathering facility in the remote Eagle Ford Shale region of South Texas.
“We have successfully earned the trust from several of the largest oil and gas producers in the world and continue to expand the list of satisfied repeat customers in the process,” said Darren Jamison, president and CEO of Capstone. “We’re seeing an increasing interest from oil and gas producers in the Eagle Ford as they continue to adopt Capstone microturbine technology due to reliability.”
