Improving Gas Separation Efficiency with Advanced Filter Separators

Pro-Gas Services

This critical initial step, gas separation, lays the foundation for efficient and safe downstream operations. Instead, it is a complex mixture often saturated with water vapor, entrained liquid hydrocarbons (condensate), and solid particulates like sand, rust, and drilling debris.

What’s Changed in Natural Gas Dehydrators

Pro-Gas Services

Early Refrigeration Methods Another early technique involved cooling the natural gas stream to condense the water vapor. By reducing the temperature of the gas, water would condense into a liquid form, which could then be separated and removed. The condensed liquids are then separated from the dry gas.

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. From here they passively drain to a lower collection vessel where nearly the entire volume of the vessel can be utilized for liquid storage.

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.
