Intervening when feed gas is too lean: Heavies removal challenges for LNG projects
Pipeline-quality feed gas for US LNG projects poses a unique challenge: heavy hydrocarbon removal. Unfortunately, for lean feed gas, traditional hydrocarbon removal methods may not meet all required liquefaction specifications. If not removed effectively, these heavy hydrocarbons will freeze out during the liquefaction process.

Creating petrochemical opportunities through bottom of the barrel conversion (Middle East)
Globally, the demand for transportation fuels could reach its peak in the coming decade. Middle Eastern refiners are seeing demand growth for fuels soften, particularly for the export market, and demand growth for petrochemicals is increasing. Forward-looking refiners are branching out into petrochemicals to unlock new value and ensure continued profitable growth. The key to unlocking these opportunities in petrochemicals lies in stepwise investments in new process technology with advanced molecular management.
