... because circumstances have changed again, allowing this field-proven process to improve economics in some areas of gas production. Engineers familiar with modern gas plant operation, particularly cryogenic plants, are acutely aware of the need for gas dehydration. This concern for hydrate prevention...

.../MMscf or mglstd m3 In these cases the actual water dewpoint is irrelevant. However, in those cases where the gas is to be refrigerated to low temperatures and the objec- tive of the dehydration process is to prevent ice or hydrate deposition in the process, the rela- tionship between water content...

... are unable to handle adequately. Several emperical techniques are available which can be used to correct recovery calculations based on the concentration of these vapors. The irnpor tance of_ C02 and J:i 2S in accurate prediction ·of recovertes cannot be overemphasized. Dehydration and Hydrate Suppression...

... of the B11 gas dehydration system. Gas from the platform wells arrives at approximately 155 bar and is cooled from 125 to 40°C using air-coolers. Further cooling to 25°C is achieved by cross-exchange using the cold gas exiting Twister. Note inlet cooling is limited by the hydrate formation temperature of 22...

... 10 and 20 ppm for a month with no adverse effects on the feed refrigeration system or in the CFZ tower. These are moisture levels that could be achieved with glycol-based dehydration system. The feed stream contained 66% CO2 (Figure 12). Prior, shorter duration, tests had shown similar results...

... of the waste acid gases. Fractionation-based processes rely on the relative volatility of the components in the sour natural gas stream. Bulk fractionation uses a single refrigerated tower for the bulk removal of acid gas compounds, but the overhead sweet product still has a high residual CO2 content of 15...

... Abstract Vessel movement of the LNG FPSO (Floating Production Storage and Offloading) may affect the performance and availability of topside liquefaction and gas treatment systems. In order to reduce the vessel movement, " L?? shape roll suppression device (L-RSD) has been developed...

... and plugging in the system. The CO2 removal system may be the most important part in gas treatment system. Acceptable CO2 level of typical 50 ppm in feed gas is very stringent and hard to meet. H2O in feed gas is relatively easily removed by molecular sieve type dehydration system. However, CO2 removal system...

To meet the requirement of 1 ppmv of water in the dehydrated gas, the molecular sieves adsorption technology was chosen. This unit was also positioned upstream CO2 removal unit, bringing the advantage of having...

While a wet sea line remained the basis of the development concept two counter current contacting towers...
