Natural-gas Condensate - Composition of Natural-gas Condensate

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)
