Composition of Natural-gas Condensate

There are many wet gas fields worldwide and each has its own unique gas condensate composition. However, in general, gas condensate has a specific gravity ranging from 0.5 to 0.8 and may contain:

  • Hydrogen sulfide (H2S)
  • Thiols traditionally also called mercaptans (denoted as RSH, where R is an organic group such as methyl, ethyl, etc.)
  • Carbon dioxide (CO2)
  • Straight-chain alkanes having from 2 to 12 carbon atoms (denoted as C2 to C12)
  • Cyclohexane and perhaps other naphthenes
  • Aromatics (benzene, toluene, xylenes, and ethylbenzene)

Famous quotes containing the words composition of and/or composition:

    The proposed Constitution ... is, in strictness, neither a national nor a federal constitution; but a composition of both.
    James Madison (1751–1836)

    Pushkin’s composition is first of all and above all a phenomenon of style, and it is from this flowered rim that I have surveyed its seep of Arcadian country, the serpentine gleam of its imported brooks, the miniature blizzards imprisoned in round crystal, and the many-hued levels of literary parody blending in the melting distance.
    Vladimir Nabokov (1899–1977)
