What Is A Slug Catcher In The Oil and Gas Business?

OilPro

This slug can cause significant damage to downstream equipment if it’s inflow is not managed actively. Protection: By preventing large liquid slugs from entering downstream equipment, it protects expensive machinery from damage and ensures continued efficient downstream operations. 200 barrel housed Innopipe installation.

The Importance of Field Gas Conditioners and JT Skids in the Oil and Gas Industry

Pro-Gas Services

In a JT skid, this principle is harnessed to cool and condense the gas, facilitating the separation of liquids and impurities. These components have a tendency to condense as the gas cools during transportation, forming liquids that can wreak havoc on pipelines and downstream equipment.

A Better Way Than The Traditional Pipeline Drip (Innopipe)

OilPro

In the context of gas pipelines, a “pipeline drip” refers to a vessel or system designed to collect liquids, such as water and hydrocarbons, that condense out of the gas stream. Liquids removal before ultrasonic gas meters (accurate measurement, less fouling/ maintenance intervals.)

The Latest Cutting-Edge Innovations in Natural Gas Liquid Separation Technology

Pro-Gas Services

These are not mere byproducts but critical commodities that fuel economic growth, generate employment, and support numerous downstream industries both within Texas and globally. Removing NGLs prevents condensation and two-phase flow issues, protects downstream equipment, and ensures a consistent heating value of the sales gas.

Reducing Downtime | The Impact of Portable Equipment on Gas Production

Pro-Gas Services

This involves chilling natural gas to very low temperatures to condense NGLs, which are then separated and fractionated. For instance, an upstream membrane unit can reduce the load on a downstream cryogenic plant, making the overall system more efficient and achieving more cost-effective NGL separation.
