MCW Energy Group provided details on its local supplier appointment program for the final fabrication stages of its oil sands extraction project in Asphalt Ridge, Utah. Several suppliers in the Vernal and Uinta Basin areas were identified early in 2012 and were invited to provide bids for the various stages of systems required for its initial plant fabrication.
One of the major contracts was awarded early in November 2012 to local supplier Uintah Machine & Manufacturing Co. Inc., of Duschene, Utah, which will fabricate MCW's extraction plant Input System. The Input System is anticipated to create a homogenized slurry with controlled particle sizes and the mixing of the oil sands feedstock with MCW's proprietary solvent composition.
"The Vernal and Uinta Basin areas have long been the epicenter of the oil and gas industries in Utah," stated Vladimir Podlipskiy, Chief Technology Officer of MCW Energy Group. "At the very beginning of this benchmark project to become Utah's first commercially-successful oil sands extraction site, we established a policy of 'locals-first,'" he added. MCW's local supplier appointment program seems to be working extremely well with the main criteria being that all suppliers/consultants must be both experienced and competitive in order to maintain MCW's cost control efficiencies.
