Natural gas is a kind of clean energy with high calorific value, but raw natural gas contains a certain amount of acid gas CO2, which will cause problems like heating value reduction and pipeline corrosion. Therefore, it is necessary to remove CO2…
Natural gas, having a significantly lower CO2emission factor than oil and coal when combusted, is accepted as an important transition fuel towards carbon net-zero society. To meet the calorific value requirements (34.0 MJ m3) and reduce possible…
Natural gas, as a very important source of energy and chemical feedstock, can be used in place of coal to lower net carbon dioxide emissions. Membrane separation technology is an attractive alternative for natural gas purification where the…
Low-pressure membrane technology (ultrafiltration and microfiltration) has been applied to two key effluents generated by the petroleum industry: produced water (PW) from oil exploration, a significant proportion being generated offshore, and onshore…
The petroleum industry is receiving increased interest in subsea oil and gas processing as it is running out of easily accessible oil and gas reservoirs. Membrane processes fulfill subsea design requirements with a simple and compact design. However,…
Development of the East Natuna gas field, the largest natural gas resources in Southeast Asia, is still highly challenging because of the presence of CO2, up to 72%. Reliable CO2 separation technology implementation with suitable CO2 handling methods…
This paper focuses on the use of modular construction techniques for installing geosynthetics in petroleum related applications. The petroleum industry uses geosynthetics for drill pad liners, above-ground and in-ground containment ponds, storage…

Approximately 40% of current global natural gas resources have high H2S and CO2 concentrations. The H2S concentration in Middle East gas reservoirs can potentially reach up to 30 mol%. H2S is toxic
Oil and gas exploration activities through conventional and unconventional approaches are accompanied by massive volumes of wastewater generated. The wastewater is originated either from the naturally saturated rocks or from hydraulic fracturing…
Electrochemical-based treatments are increasing in popularity due to their “green” operation and not requiring added chemicals. The use of electricity for petroleum wastewater treatment can greatly enhance the separation of oil and recovery of…
