What we do
Phoenix Park Gas Processors Limited (PPGPL) is a leading natural gas processing, fractionation, and NGL marketing company based in Trinidad and Tobago. Established in 1991, PPGPL plays a pivotal role in the region’s energy sector by processing natural gas supplied by the National Gas Company of Trinidad and Tobago (NGC). The main natural gas stream is processed and separated into lighter hydrocarbons (methane and ethane) and natural gas liquids (NGLs). The lighter hydrocarbons are redelivered to NGC for distribution to various downstream industries on the island, including ammonia, methanol, and power generation plants. The NGLs obtained from gas processing on the facility combined with additional volumes from Atlantic LNG facility are then fractionated into component streams of propane, butane, and natural gasoline. These products are kept in storage tanks and marketed to customers via truck tanker wagon or seafaring vessels.

Our Growth
PPGPL's Growth
PPGPL has undertaken many capital investments to expand its initial facility that was commissioned in June 1991. The following growth projects have been implemented:
First Acquisition
On February 1, 2020, PPGPL through its wholly owned US subsidiary, Phoenix Park Energy Marketing LLC, acquired the NGL marketing assets of Twin Eagle Liquids Marketing LLC of Houston Texas, USA, which is engaged in the business of marketing, trading and transportation of natural gas liquids in Canada, USA and Mexico via rail.
Second Acquisition
Phoenix Park Hull Terminal in Hull Texas formally Keyera Energy Inc. NGL’s Terminal
Third Acquisition
Phoenix Park Rush City Terminal in Minnesota formally Interstate Fuel and Energy’s propane terminal.
Storage Expansion Project
This expansion increased natural gasoline storage from 350,000 barrels to 600,000 barrels; and total storage from 1,000,000 barrels to 1,250,000 barrels.
Phase 3 Expansion
This expansion was completed in August 2009 and increased PPGPL’s gas processing capability from 1,350 mmcfd to 1,950 mmcfd
Iso-Butane Facility
This project created the opportunity for PPGPL to split its mixed butane product into normal and iso-butane; the latter being supplied to Petrotrin under a 10-year sale agreement
The Fractionation Expansion 3 Project
This expansion involved the construction of a stand-alone fractionation facility that resulted in an increase in the company’s fractionation capacity from 46,000 BPD to 70,000 BPD. This increase catered for the fractionation of the natural gas liquids from the Phase 3 facility and ALNG T4
The Fractionation, Storage and Expansion 2 Project
This increased fractionation capacity from 33,500bpd to 46,000bpd and natural gas liquid storage capacity from 750,000 barrels to 1,000,000 barrels; to receive and process the natural gas liquids from ALNG T2/3
The Phase 2 Expansion: This expansion
• increased PPGPL’s processing capacity from 750 MMCFD to 1,350 MMCFD • increased fractionation capacity from 13,500 to 33,500 barrels per day (bpd) • increased natural gas liquids storage capacity from 400,000 barrels to 750,000 barrels • expanded vessel handling capability from 22,000 cubic meters to 54,000 cubic meters by adding a second vessel loading port • increased vessel loading capability up to 10,000 barrels per hour • enabled the receipt of the natural gas liquids from ALNG T1 via the installation of an 8” natural gas liquids pipeline connecting ALNG to PPGPL
The Phase 1 Upgrade Project
This increased PPGPL’s gas processing capacity from 650 MMCFD to 750MMCFD
The Soldado Gas Gathering Project
This enabled PPGPL to process up to 42 MMCFD of associated gas that is gathered by Petrotrin thereby increasing the value of the resource
The Natural Gasoline Storage and Export Project
This enabled PPGPL to export natural gasoline and consequently obtain a higher netback value for that product
