Hydrocarbon Behavior

(5 days)

For: Engineers who predict action/reaction of hydrocarbons from the reservoir to the plant or refinery

Why does vapor-liquid equilibrium change in each element of a flow or process system? What is retrograde? When is gas cycling advantageous? What difference does enthalpy make? What is a J-T valve? Learn all of this, including the theory and practice of each and how to translate the technology into profit. Practice real world examples and prove your own expertise to yourself. No longer be "snowed" by a technical treatise on processing. Become a generalist technical manager who is wise to the entire flow stream.

Presentations are designed for active participation. Bring your own special problems.

Major Topics Covered:

  • Physical Properties of Hydrocarbons

  • Metering

  • Phase Behavior

  • Separation

  • Thermodynamic Concepts

  • Compression
