  6. System Overview Jeff Cherwinka • Design Strategy • Leverage Amanda Experience • Use the same equipment where it worked • Scale up system 100 GPM->200 GPM • People with experience • Major Improvements • One “piece” drill hose – big hose reel • Automated control • Two drilling structures • Modular Design • MDS – Modular Drilling Structures • Use identical equipment where possible • Multiple smaller units • Fuel Efficiency is a design driver

  12. Subsystem Overview Jeff Cherwinka • PHS – PreHeat Subsystem • Maintain water level of Tank 2 • Control flow rates from Tank 1 using transfer pumps • Maintain temperature of Tank 2 • Control valves and heater firing • Equipment • 4 Model 75 heaters (3.50 GPH->420,000 BTU/hr) with condensate collection system • 7 Stinger heaters (2.0 GPH->220,000 BTU/hr) • 2 Vane pumps (5-70 GPM@150 psi) supply water to stingers and model 75s • 2 Unico drives (10 Hp) for vane pumps • 2 Unico drives (3 Hp) for for transfer pumps • 2 Electric water heaters (30 kW) to level generator load

  13. Subsystem Overview Jeff Cherwinka • HPP – High Pressure Pumps • Pressurize 200 GPM of cold water to 950 psi • Equipment • High Pressure Pumps: 4 positive displacement pumps capable of 35-65 gpm @1600 psi (50 gpm @ 950 psi) • 4 Unico Drives (50 Hp) for High Pressure Pumps • 4 Unico Drives (3 Hp) for Charge Pumps • Supply manifold to combine and instrument flow to MHPs • Return manifold combines MHP return and supply to drill

  14. Subsystem Overview Jeff Cherwinka • MHP – Main Heating Plant (MHP1, MHP2, MHP3, MHP4) • Heat 50 GPM from 70 F to 190 F • Pass through 100 GPM • Equipment • 9 Model 75 heaters (3.50 GPH->420,000 BTU/hr) • Condensate collection system gathers 2.5 GPH of water from each running heater, neutralizes, filters, pressurizes and injects the water into the supply manifold

  16. Enhanced Model 75 heater Jeff Cherwinka • 4 (8) S.S. Coil Condenser lowers exhaust gas temp captures more energy from combustion products • Condensate Collection • Molded Combustion Chamber raises combustion temperature producing cleaner burn and gets more energy from fuel • Removable Burner Assembly
