Global pipelines construction outlook 2024: New LNG terminals sound call for more pipelines—Part 1
Mike Reed, Editor-in-Chief, Pipeline & Gas Journal, provides an overview of capital investments in pipeline construction. Part 1 examines capacity builds in North America, and Central and South America.
Drive energy efficiency and reduce emissions with dry gas sealing solutions
Centrifugal compressors play a critical role in efficiently transporting the large volumes of natural gas used as a feedstock and fuel source in industries ranging from oil and gas to petrochemicals to liquefied natural gas (LNG). An effective sealing system is crucial to keeping a compressor running at peak efficiency. This article details the benefits of utilizing dry gas seals in these operations.
Detect operator-induced faults on a liquid expander
This case study examines a fault during the startup of liquid expanders in an LNG facility.
Optimized high-pressure injection system design
This article details an optimization opportunity that was taken in a high-pressure injection system after a thorough evaluation during the Hawiyah Unayzah Gas Reservoir Storage (HUGRS) project in Saudi Arabia.
Optimizing waste heat recovery systems for more efficient, sustainable operations
In the natural gas sector, recovering available waste heat from processing operations and converting it into carbon-free electricity can represent a significant opportunity to reduce emissions and increase energy savings.
Fuel gas blending: Follow the H2 signal
In some cases, it may be practical to blend hydrogen (H2) into the local natural gas distribution network via an agreement with local utilities, but regardless of the strategy, blending must be carefully controlled. This article examines these challenges.
