Hi
We are experiencing a drop in the gas MW feeding an oil and gas process plant. Unit operations include Separatio, compression, dehydration,liquids stabilisation.
How would you see as impacting the process? Just after a high level answer on potential impacts without running any simulations.
My thoughts are:
-increase velocities
-increase compression power (increased speed for the same flow)
- better separation (less liquids)
Thanks in advance.

There are probably more changes than you have suggested. This "high level" won't do you much good.
