Tour Our Pilot Plant

The Dow Gas Treating pilot plant in Freeport, Texas, is designed to help operating companies minimize the risk involved in altering gas plant operations. The facility enables oil and gas companies to preview the impact of a potential system change before full-scale implementation in their own plants, creating a direct point of interaction between Dow and its customers.

Dow has invested in the most modern data acquisition equipment and control systems. The pilot plant's data acquisition capabilities allow precise and extensive measurements of factors such as gas treating capacity, product quality, circulation requirements and energy costs. The customer has the flexibility to identify the operating conditions that are most important to its business. The pilot plant can then provide detailed reports of how the modification has affected those specific parameters. Customers are also able to view the tests as they occur, either on-site or from a remote location. To observe the process from a remote location, customers connect to the pilot plant control room through a secure line, only accessible from a Dow computer connected to the Dow network.
