Abstract: A method for removing natural gas liquids from raw natural gas involving the steps of: passing untreated gas through a scrubber to remove liquid droplets and contaminants; delivering the untreated gas to a compressor, which pressurizes the untreated gas to create pressurized gas; passing the pressurized gas through a first aerial cooler to discharge heat to atmosphere; providing a chilled air exchanger and an air chilling unit; chilling air by passing the air through the air chilling unit to create chilled air; delivering the chilled air to the chilled air exchanger; passing the pressurized gas through the chilled air exchanger to cool the pressurized gas to a setpoint to create cooled pressurized gas; and delivering the cooled pressurized gas to a separator to remove liquids from the cooled pressurized gas, thereby creating processed gas. A system having the components listed above.

Abstract: A method for supplementing condenser heat rejection in natural gas processing including passing unprocessed gas through a gas-to-chilling fluid heat exchanger, transferring cooled and condensed gas to a vapor liquid separator, sending the chilling fluid to a chilling fluid reservoir, directing the chilling fluid to a refrigeration sub-system, circulating refrigerant throughout the refrigeration sub-system, touting vapor refrigerant through a refrigeration compressor, sending the vapor refrigerant to a refrigeration condenser, routing the liquid refrigerant to an accumulator tank and through an expansion valve, muting the reduced-pressure liquid refrigerant to the evaporator, and passing at least a portion of the processed vapor to a processed vapor-to-refrigerant heat exchanger via an actuated valve controlled by a processor to remove heat from the liquid refrigerant before the liquid refrigerant is sent to the expansion valve. The refrigeration sub-system includes an evaporator that is configured to transfer heat from the chilling fluid to the refrigerant.

Abstract: A system and method for treating gas to fuel turbines by passing raw gas through an inlet pressure reducing valve to adjust the gas pressure and through a scrubber to capture liquids from the gas. Next, the gas is passed through a compressor to bring it to a pressure above that required by an inlet of a turbine and then to a post-compression aerial cooler that cools the gas to a temperature lower than a required dewpoint at fuel delivery pressure. Next, natural gas liquids are removed from the gas by passing it through a separator. A first portion of the cooled compressed gas is sent through a gas-to-gas heat exchanger, creating heated compressed gas, and a second portion of the cooled compressed gas passes through a backpressure valve. The heated compressed gas is blended with the second portion to create a fuel gas stream with a desired delivery temperature.

Abstract: A method for conditioning natural gas for downlink applications comprising pulling raw gas; cooling the gas to a temperature within a preset temperature range; removing solid contaminants and condensed liquids from the gas; reducing gas pressure to meet the requirements of the inlet side of a compressor; controlling the rotational speed of the compressor based on data input from various flow meters; delivering the preconditioned gas to the suction side of the compressor; elevating gas pressure to achieve a desired discharge pressure; using an aerial cooler to cool the pressurized gas; delivering the pressurized gas to a separator to separate the liquids from the gas; repeating the compression, cooling and separating steps until desired temperature and pressure are achieved; cooling the gas through the use of a heat sink; removing liquids from the gas through the use of a separator; and adjusting the final gas pressure and temperature.

Abstract: A system and method for treating associated gas in which a stream of raw gas is passed through safety valving, an inlet pressure control mechanism, and an inlet scrubber. Pressure/temperature data is transmitted to a control system via pressure and temperature transducers. The raw gas is sent to a gas compressor to generate pressurized gas, which is sent to an aerial cooler and a chiller heat exchanger, in which a chilling media contacts the pressurized gas. The chilled pressurized gas is sent to a vapor liquid separator to generate processed gas, which is routed through either a system backpressure valve or a pressure reducing recycle valve that directs the processed gas to the inlet scrubber. The processed gas that has passed through the system backpressure valve is delivered as fuel or routed through a backpressure regulating recycle valve that directs the processed gas to a system inlet pressure reducing valve.
