At a natural gas wellhead, the emergent gas stream is saturated with C3+ hydrocarbons. Removal of these hydrocarbons to achieve a treated gas dew point of -20 degree celsius is necessary to prevent condensation at cold spots in the gas transportation pipeline. Recovered natural gas liquids (NGLs) are valuable and may be used for local energy generation or shipped off-site for further processing. In a few cases, the liquids could be reinjected at wellhead to maintain pressure of the formation. NGL stabilization is done to lower the CH4 and C2 components principally in these liquids. This lowers the vapor pressure of the liquids and allows storage and transportation at ambient pressures and temperatures safely. Subsequently these liquids may be used to dilute bitumen and heavy crudes for transportation.
