LEESVILLE CRYOGENIC PROCESSING AND — FRACTIONATION FACILITY

Project Scope

The Leesville Cryogenic Processing and Fractionation Facility completed a three-plant system supporting the gathering, processing, and distribution of Utica Shale gas in eastern Ohio. E.S. Wagner’s initial scope included mass excavation, embankment construction, and drainage, executed through multiple simultaneous operations to meet aggressive milestones. Leveraging regional geotechnical expertise, the team eliminated blasting and minimized subsurface drainage needs, saving over $1 million. The scope expanded to include installation of all concrete foundations for processing equipment, compressors, pumps, filters, and loading systems, as well as constructability reviews and conceptual design support. Additional work included installing secondary containment for above-ground storage vessels, delivered on time and under budget. Value engineering efforts, including cement stabilization of subgrade, improved winter work conditions, reduced maintenance impacts, and increased productivity. The project was completed with exemplary safety performance.
