Gas Sweetening

Level: Skill | Type: Classroom | Discipline: Process Operations

The use of natural gas has become a prime source of energy generation.  Contaminants within the gas stream cause problems with freezing, corrosion, erosion, plugging.  Environmental, health and safety hazards must also be removed.  Sour natural gas compositions can vary over a wide concentration of H2S, CO2 and hydrocarbon components.

This course focuses on the removal of H2S and CO2 from sour gas which is called “sweetening.”   The end user of natural gas must be assured that the gas meets sales gas specifications and that the supply of gas must be available at all times at the contracted rate. Participants will gain an understanding of gas treating facilities, how they must be designed to convert a particular raw gas mixture into a sales gas that meets the sales-gas specifications, and how such facilities must operate without interruption. 

This course will provide participants with the fundamental knowledge of gas sweetening process and its operation as applied in today’s oil and gas industry.
