Liquid Carryover in Natural Gas Processing: The Hidden Threat to Gas Quality and Efficiency
Gas analysers are unable to report liquid carryover, and it is an important parameter that is currently not being monitored. It can have a major safety impact and significantly affect the efficiency of both gas processing operations and gas transmission systems. Multiple examples exist where process camera show that liquids exist or a sudden onset […]
Phase Separation in Midstream Natural Gas Systems & Pipelines – Understanding the Risks and Solutions
For both gas treatment plant operators and transmission systems operators (TSOs), incorrect phase separation can result in a significant loss of profits. The installation of process cameras in high-pressure gas systems reveals a much higher level of two-phase flow than expected. In most cases, dewpoints still report dry gas while liquid flows are present. With […]
