Removal acid gas (H2S anıl CO2) by a sweetening process 2. Dehydration (H2O removal) 3. Hydrocarbon dew point coı,ıtrtıl to remove rich hydrocarbons, leaving methane and ethane as the sales stream 4. Compression of gas to tlıe pipeline pressure. Soun gas Many factors distinguislr gas wells. Fig. 1 This series of two articles discusses existing techniques and methods to quickly and effectively connect wells to production facilities and pipelines, typically used in western Canada This first article will discuss gener- al considerations and the concluding part will cover detailed design.

Cılgary detailed analysis of existing pro- cessing and transportation facili- ties must be performed to deter- site, trucked, or piped to .r refiırery. But a gas well, unlike an oil well, must be connected into a pipeline transmission system for tlre product to be sold. There are exceptions, such as if tl,ıe gas is liquefied and trans- ported in pressurized vessels. How- ever, this process has been used in only a few areas of the world. Identification of a typical gas sales specification is the first step in deter- mining the type of gas processiııg needed to allow the gas to be trans- ported witlrout liquids or freezing, and in a state that the final consumer can burn cleanly and efficiently. A typical gas sales specification is as follows: . Dew point-15o C. at 850 psig .
