Innovations in membranes for natural gas processing frequently consider ideal separation performance as the defining success metric for removing carbon dioxide (CO2) from methane (CH4). However, realistic natural gas feeds are complex mixtures…
Some deep-water offshore fields produce oil with high gas/oil ratios and ultra-high %CO2 (>60%mol) with the onus of processing low-grade gas simultaneously handling huge CO2 dispatch goals. Thus, processing solutions are needed to make feasible such…
Rubbery siloxane membranes are utilized in industry for the rejection of nitrogen and for the concentration of heavy hydrocarbons in the membrane permeate stream. In this work, modified crosslinked siloxane terpolymer…
Supersonic separators offer a cleaner offshore processing of natural gas with carbon dioxide content from deep-water oil-gas fields. Conventional offshore gas processing comprises water dew-point adjustment via glycol-absorption, hydrocarbon…
Libra Field is a giant oil and gas offshore field situated in Santos Basin, at 200 km from southeastern Brazil coast, 2200 m water depth and 5 km crust depth. The product of Libra is a 27API oil with a remarkable characteristic: an impressive gas/oil…
