New in gas processing technology

B. Andrew, Technical Editor New gas dehydration technology  ExxonMobil’s new cMIST technology dehydrates natural gas using a patented absorption system inside pipes, and replaces the need for conventional dehydration tower technology. This “in-line” technology is designed for deployment at both land-based and offshore natural gas production operations. The new technology, developed and field-tested by ExxonMobil, is claimed to more efficiently remove water vapor during the production of natural gas. Removing water vapor through the use of dehydration technology reduces corrosion and equipment interference for the transport of natural gas through supply infrastructure and, ult
