STUDY THE EFFECT OF PH AND CONCENTRATION OF GLYCOL SOLUTION IN THE DEHYDRATION OF NATURAL GAS

Abstract

The paper presents the effect of pH and concentration of glycol solution and other general operating problems and some important trouble shootings which are concerning and involved with the operation and performance of the different equipment of the gas dehydration plant by using glycol system. The trouble shooting deal and diagnosis of the problems encountered during plant operation with the main equipment like High Dew Point of Sales Gas, Low Glycol pH (Less than 6.5), and Lean Glycol Low Concentration. Also many tips and recommendations regarding the operation performance of the dehydration process has been added.The work included three Libyan gas fields ( North Zelten, Meghil, and Sorra plants).
