CompactGTL’s technology is based on proprietary reactor designs for both Steam Methane Reforming (SMR) and Fischer Trope (FT) processes. These reactors are a novel design based on mini channels, giving a reactor that is compact and produces process intensified reactions. The design, manufacture and delivery of these reactors form a core component of CompactGTL’s business.

CompactGTL has a 0.1 bpd UK Pilot Plant facility at Wilton in the North East of England, and its head office and laboratory facility is in Abingdon, Oxfordshire. The company has a major EPC contract with Petrobras, the Brazilian state-owned oil company, for a 20 bpd commercial demonstration plant that has been operational since December 2010.
