In a glycol dehydrator unit, the cylinder composed of various perforated trays in which wet gas and glycol are put in contact.
Industry:Oil & gas
Global sea level, which changes in response to changes in the volume of ocean water and the volume of ocean basins.
Industry:Oil & gas
Hydrocarbon gas density expressed as the ratio of the molecular weight of the gas to the molecular weight of air.
Industry:Oil & gas
Hydrocarbon liquid dissolved in saturated natural gas that comes out of solution when the pressure drops below the dewpoint.
Industry:Oil & gas
Hydrocarbons that are in the gaseous phase at reservoir conditions but condense into liquid as they travel up the wellbore and reach separator conditions. Condensate liquids are sometimes called distillate.
Industry:Oil & gas
Generally, a finite impulse response (FIR) filter that has been designed to transform the usually irregular vertical response functions of raw measurements into a smooth, well-behaved response function such as a Gaussian response or a Kaiser window function. The criteria for designing inverse filters can include vertical response, depth of investigation and near-field (cave effect) response. Inverse filters have been used for many years to improve the response of induction arrays.
Industry:Oil & gas
Gas-well tests, often required by law, in which one flow rate immediately follows another, with each flow period reaching stabilized flow. The bottomhole pressure at the end of each flow period is used to calculate gas-well deliverability.
Industry:Oil & gas
Gas volume at reservoir conditions divided by gas volume at standard conditions. This factor is used to convert surface measured volumes to reservoir conditions, just as oil formation volume factors are used to convert surface measured oil volumes to reservoir volumes.
Industry:Oil & gas
Gas produced from the well, unprocessed natural gas or the inlet natural gas to a plant. The raw gas still contains natural gas liquids (condensate, natural gasoline and liquefied petroleum gas), water and some other impurities such as nitrogen, carbon dioxide, hydrogen sulfide and helium. The raw gas must be processed in a gas processing plant to make the gas commercial.
Industry:Oil & gas
Gas that is being stored in salt domes, salt layers or depleted oil and gas fields.
