Gas-Condensate Field

Typical facts for gas-condensate facilities

Subsea-to-shore or platform solution

- Handling capability for large volumes of gas

- Downstream gas handling (either pipeline or LNG)

Large diameter pipelines and wells

- Large diameter pipelines, 10-30” (liquid build-up)

- Large diameter Wells, 6-10” (liquid loading)

Operability

- Hydrates (typically high cost risk)

- One step in the supply chain (frequent rate changes)

- Supply regularity (LNG and pipeline to consumer)

- Packing or de-packing of pipelines (buffering)

- Liquid management

Operations

- Initial start-up

- Rapid and frequent rate change

- Pigging

- Inhibitor management
