H 2 O, H 2 S, CO 2 , and O 2 measurements for pipeline integrity

Measurement of H 2 O, H 2 S, CO 2 , and O 2 in natural gas pipelines at production and gathering sites, custody transfer points, compression stations, storage facilities, and in distribution systems is critically important to protect pipelines from corrosion and meet gas quality specifications. TDLAS and Quenched Fluorescence (QF) analyzers have proven to be highly effective for con tinuous on-line monitoring of these contaminants in natural gas pipelines. • High-resolution lasers provide selec tive and specific measurement of H 2 O, H 2 S, CO 2 in natural gas streams • No field calibration needed • Highly accurate measurement with National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) - traceable factory calibration • Accurate O 2 measurements even when H 2 S is present, using Quenched Fluorescence technology

Chemical injection plays a vital role in the safe and efficient production and transport of natural gas. Corrosion inhibi tors are injected into pipelines to maintain and extend the lifetime of gas pipelines, while kinetic hydrate inhibitors (KHIs) and methanol are used to prevent the formation of crystalline ice-like structures (Hydrates) that can plug pipe lines and disrupt gas flow. The effectiveness of these inhibi tors depends on injecting the right amount of chemicals. Chemical injection skids for gas pipelines
