AGENDA

This half-day session surveys current trends in natural gas production and delivery and examines the economic and technical basis for profitable gas processing and conditioning. This interactive training, the first of four break-out sessions from “Overview of Gas Processing” includes:

• Natural Gas Sources – Conventional, Shale and Tight Gas, etc.
• Gas Characteristics – Lean, Rich, Associated, etc. 
• Gas Contaminants – Carbon Dioxide, Nitrogen, etc. 
• Gas Specifications – Gathering System, Plant and Pipeline 
• Gas Behavior – Process selection and operating conditions 
• Plant Economics – Project planning and decision drivers

As a course wrap-up, a broad survey of the gas processing technologies currently in use will be covered as an introduction to the subsequent extended training sessions. 

A big thank you to Kinder Morgan for hosting us!
