Underground gas storage (henceforth; UGS) is considered as a common method which resolves the seasonality problem of transportation and distribution of gas phase in the oil and gas industries. The main objective of this study is to simulate one of Iranian's depleted gas condensate reservoir and...

The accurate forecasting of short-term load for urban gas is the premise of gas supply sales, pipe network planning, and energy optimization scheduling. This paper adopts a hybrid model that integrates the fruit fly optimization algorithm (FFOA), simulated annealing algorithm (SA), cross factor...

This article considers a process technology based on absorption for CO2 capturing of ethane gas in phase 9 and 10 of south pars in Iran using diethanolamine (DEA) as absorbent solvent. This CO2 capture plant was designed to achieve 85% CO2 recovery and obtain 19 ppm the CO2 concentration in the...

The gas industry relies on indirect heating to prevent gas from freezing when it is transferred from high-pressure networks to lower pressure distribution systems. The main challenge in preheating natural gas is designing an indirect heating system capable of consistently maintaining a target...

It has been an important objective in China's energy development strategy to accelerate the promotion of natural gas utilization, cultivate main sources of natural gas, and increase the proportion of natural gas consumption. Based on the analysis of the development of natural gas utilization in...

With the continued downturn in global crude oil prices, the natural gas market shows a rapid growth trend. The coordination of natural gas trade is becoming more and more important, and many organizations have put forward natural gas energy metering the schemes. Nowadays, the energy metering...

Present work is focused on building a TRNSYS simulation model of solar water heating (SWH) system using heat pipe evacuated tubes, hybridized with conventional fuel (i.e., natural gas) backup to provide uninterrupted thermal energy supply. An experimental facility was developed to validate the...

Dehydration using triethylene glycol (TEG) is widely used in natural gas processing to avoid corrosion and plugging of the flow lines. Optimization using Aspen HYSYS simulator and optimizer tool was performed to minimize the processing cost considering different sets of parameters: TEG...

As the cleanest fossil fuel in terms of carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions, natural gas demand is expected to increase rapidly in future due to its important role in the transition of the world energy system. In this case, understanding potential limits to future production of the world's natural...

The growing impacts of climate change mainly due to the increasing emissions of GHG, especially carbon dioxide, has led to the development and implementation of specific strategies and policies to reduce them. Carbon capture and utilization (CCU) is currently seen as a good option, as it...
