The Quick Booster Access 500

The Quick Booster Access 500 is a booster developed with our partner Eiffage Métal which empties a pipeline by extracting the gas from the pipeline before recompressing it in the upstream or downstream network.   

Benefits of QBA 

 Day to set up

Operators needed

Release of methane


Volumes: between 5 000 and 20 000 (n)m3

Flow rate recompressed: by around 250 to 500 (n)m3/h

Composition: a preliminary decompression module, 2 compressors, a bio-GNC heat engine and a PLC

Suction pressure: reduced from 67 bars to 300 millibars

To take this a step further, GRTgaz intends to offer a booster in the next few years enabling recompression of flows of the order of 1,500 (n)m3/h.
