Hydrocarbon Phase Behavior and Vapor-Liquid Equilibrium
e-Learning
About the eLearning Course
In Hydrocarbon Phase Behavior and Vapor-Liquid Equilibrium, you will learn about the phase behavior, vapor-liquid equilibrium, the water content of gas, and hydrates.
Target Audience
Operations personnel who require a fundamental understanding of knowledge to operate and maintain facilities. Also suitable for maintenance and technician personnel whether new to their roles or seasoned experts looking to enhance their skills.You Will Learn
Participants will learn how to:
- Describe phase behavior.
- Describe the purpose and function of phase diagrams for single and multicomponent systems.
- Identify reservoir and facility applications for phase diagrams.
- Explain vapor-liquid equilibrium behavior and how it is calculated.
- Describe flash stage separation and how vapor pressure is determined.
- Identify the factors that affect the amount of water in natural gas.
- Describe the chemical nature and properties of hydrates, and conditions necessary for hydrate formation.
- Describe the options for preventing hydrates.
- Identify types of hydrate inhibitors and describe how they suppress hydrate formation or remove hydrates after they are formed.
