"This handbook is a valuable reference that covers all aspects of the natural gas transmission and processing industries. It contains much needed design, operation and optimization information, all in a single source and does an excellent job of highlighting the key considerations for any gas processing project, as well as providing innovative solutions in natural gas liquids recovery and treating high nitrogen and carbon dioxide content gases in unconventional gas plants. It is a key addition to any gas processing professional s library." --Jason Kraynek, Vice President of Business Transformation and Innovations, Fluor, USA
"This handbook is a valuable reference that covers all aspects of natural gas processing and handling. It
has been fully updated in this fourth edition to also cover the recent developments in dealing with more sour gases and gases that contain all kinds of contaminants. It provides a good insight in the operational and technical aspects to the handling of natural gases. A great reference for students, operators and engineers working in the natural gas industry." --Frank Scheel, Director of Technology, Jacobs - Comprimo Sulfur Solutions, the Netherlands
"This high quality, comprehensive book gives an accurate picture of where the natural gas transmission and processing industry stands today, and describes some relatively new technologies that could become important in the future. I recommend this book for any professional gas processing engineer and technologist." --David Messersmith, Bechtel Fellow and Manager of LNG Technology and Services Group, Bechtel OG&C, USA
"This well-balanced book is a must read for anyone in the natural gas business due to its completeness in the coverage of all aspects of the natural gas transmission and processing industry. As well as covering some topics rarely discussed and hard to find in the literature, the complex elements of the gas processing industry as well as practical advices for the safe design and operation of gas plants are fully addressed in a straightforward fashion, which makes the book appealing to all parties who are involved in the natural gas field development projects." --Philip Hunter, Senior Vice President - Global LNG/FLNG/GTL Technology & Development, KBR, UK
"This is a valuable handbook to both the experienced engineer and the graduate just commencing in natural gas engineering. It provides practical advice for design and operation based on sound engineering principles and established techniques as well as introducing process solutions based on new and emerging technologies." --Adrian Finn, Manager of Process Technology, Costain Natural Resources, UK
"This is a wide ranging book providing the reader with much more information than that necessary to just support the engineering of a gas plant. Having introduced the fundamental science of natural gas, it covers sources, products, transportation and economics of natural gas production, before covering all the unit operations involved in gas treatment to meet product specifications. Additional sections are included covering control systems, dynamic simulation, environmental aspects, maximizing gas plant profitability and gas plant project management, and these contribute to what is a holistic handbook that will educate all those who wish to learn about the subject." --Jon Lewis, Vice President of Gas Processing and Sulfur Recovery, Advisian, WorleyParsons Group, UK
