The Importance of Dehydrating Natural Gas Natural gas dehydration is an important step in processing natural gas. Over-saturated gas can cause corrosion, reducing the lifespan of gas processing equipment, and ultimately causing the gas stream to not meet pipeline specifications. If the gas does not meet pipeline specifications of 7 pounds per mmcfd, a natural […]
Most customers dread having to conduct a full cleanout of a TEG dehydrator. The cleanout sometimes implies shutdowns or drop in capacity. One of the ways CROFT designed the Passive Dehydration System (PDS) is to be utilized as a quick, easy, and a temporary way to bypass a TEG and continue to dehydrate the gas while your TEG is shut down and getting serviced/cleaned out.
natural gas processing has several steps, the main processes include separation, carbon dioxide and hydrogen sulfide removal, dehydration, and NGL recovery.
Absorption vs. Adsorption Dehydrating natural gas, or the removal of water vapor from natural gas can be done by either adsorption or absorption. Croft’s Passive Dehydration System uses adsorption, where water vapor is collected and condensed on the surface with the use of a solid desiccant. Solid desiccants have a high adsorption capacity, a low resistance to gas […]
Gas dehydration is the removal of water from the gas stream in order to meet pipeline specifications.
Raw natural gas must be dehydrated to remove water vapor. Natural gas dehydration will eliminate the formation of hydrates and over-saturation of natural gas. All of these issues can cause corrosion, impacting the longevity of your gas processing equipment, and cause the gas stream to not meet pipeline specifications.
CROFT Passive Dehydration Systems natural gas dehydration unit that utilizes a specially formulated solid desiccant called enviroDRI to adsorb water from the gas stream. Below are our clients’ most commonly asked questions about enviroDRI. What is enviroDRI? enviroDRI is a deliquescent desiccant pellet about the size of an almond designed to adsorb water from hydrocarbon […]
Solid desiccant dehydration is a safer alternative to gycol dehydration, which uses a liquid desiccant to absorb water from the gas.

Dual Fuel Powered Drilling Rigs and Frac Spreads Many cost-conscious oilfield companies have made the switch to either natural gas or dual-fuel, also referred to as bi-fuel, which is a mixture of diesel and natural gas. Dual-fuel engines run on a combination of diesel and natural gas, giving companies the flexibility to choose which fuel […]
