Gas Dehydration Application
Industrial burners sit at the center of many oil and gas processing operations. From glycol dehydration units and amine plants to line heaters and fired process heaters, safe and efficient combustion is critical to production reliability, operating costs, and personnel safety. Yet burners are often treated as “set it and forget it” equipment. Over time, […]
Complete Glycol Dehydration System Maintenance from Inspection to Startup Triethylene Glycol (TEG) dehydration systems are mission-critical assets in natural gas processing. When a TEG unit underperforms, the consequences are immediate—off-spec gas, excessive glycol losses, foaming, corrosion, and unplanned shutdowns. That’s why professional TEG cleanout and overhaul services are essential for operators seeking reliable dehydration performance […]
Case Study Blog: How Chlorides Affect Glycol Dehydrators in Natural Gas Processing Glycol dehydration units are critical in the natural gas industry for removing water vapor from raw gas streams to meet pipeline and sales gas specifications. Among the many contaminants and operational challenges that glycol dehydrators face, chlorides (e.g., NaCl, CaCl₂, MgCl₂) stand out […]
The Due Diligence Deep Dive: Top 10 Questions to Ask Before Buying a Glycol Dehydrator In the world of natural gas processing, removing water vapor is not just a regulatory requirement—it’s a fundamental necessity for preventing corrosion, inhibiting the formation of dangerous gas hydrates, and ensuring the gas meets pipeline quality specifications typically 7 pounds […]
