Mechanical refrigeration and JT systems demand expertise to assure reliability and safety. Our consulting services can also take into account different heat pump systems.

Mechanical Refrigeration

Mechanical refrigeration systems usually include an inlet gas exchanger and some type of “heat pump” system.  This could be propane refrigeration, chill water, or some specialty refrigerants to chill natural gas to -30°F.

JT systems

JT systems utilize the mechanism of the JT effect of pressure drop across a control valve to cool the gas and condense heavier components (hexane+).

Hydrocarbon Dew Pointing

Hydrocarbon dew pointing is used throughout the natural gas industry to measure the quality of natural gas. Dew point is the temperature at which the hydrocarbon component of natural gas will start to condense out of the gas phase at a given pressure.

Mid-Stream Gas Consulting & Engineering

Since NGLS have a higher value than natural gas, it’s in the producer’s best interest to maximize NGL recovery. This also prevents heavy hydrocarbons from condensing in midstream equipment which can decrease efficiency and cause problems.
