There are 2 modules in this course

"Natural Gas Production" is a module that provides learners with a comprehensive understanding of the processes and equipment involved in the recovery, processing and transportation of natural gas. This module begins with an introduction to gas recovery and processing, covering the basics of gas piping and its importance in the overall gas production and separation facility. Learners will explore the details of production and separation facilities for gas, including the equipment and processes involved. Piping guidelines and safety are extensively discussed to ensure learners understand the best practices for designing, installing and maintaining gas pipelines. The module also covers pipeline transportation of natural gas and gas flow systems, enabling learners to comprehend the principles and techniques involved. Pressure vessels and accessories are crucial part of natural gas production and their design, operation, and safety considerations are extensively covered. The module also addresses gas hydrates and the use of methanol injection for temperature control and prevention of hydrate formation. Furthermore, learners will gain insights into condensate stabilization systems, gas cycling of condensate reservoirs and the importance of gas gathering and compression in efficient gas production operations.

The module on "Natural Gas Processing" provides students with a comprehensive understanding of the processes and methods involved in the treatment and purification of natural gas. It begins with an introduction to natural gas processing, covering the importance of removing impurities and liquids from raw natural gas to meet quality specifications. It explores gas dehydration methods, including adsorption and absorption techniques, as well as the widely used glycol dehydration process. It gives insights into the maintenance, regeneration, care, and troubleshooting of glycol dehydration systems. Gas sweetening is a critical step in natural gas processing and learners will understand various processes such as the iron sponge process, Sulfa-Treat, molecular sieve, zinc oxide, solvent, membrane and distillation processes which remove contaminants such as hydrogen sulfide and carbon dioxide to make the gas marketable. Furthermore, it delves into liquid recovery processes and fractionation to understand how valuable liquid hydrocarbons are recovered from the natural gas stream through unit operations.
