Dear All,

Is there any API/ISO/other standard for Amine sweetening or Acid Gas Removal from Natural Gas? Any suggestions from my learned colleagues.

Hello Ankur,

As far as I know, there is no standard which addresses this kind of concerns. Apart from engineering practices, guidelines, or confidential technical information owned by process licensors, I think there is no need for separate standard - because all design cases have something different and specific: whether it is related to process conditions, levels of tretment severity, contaminants present in the system, required unit availability etc.

What you are particularly interested in?

Dear Zauberberg,

There is an API standard (or more correctly a specification) for "Glyol-Type Gas Dehydration Units" which is numbered as API Spec 12GDU. I am looking for something on similar lines. The glycol dehydration is also a very specific process and different package vendors have their own set of design and operating parameters. Similarly I am trying to find out if something exists for amine sweetening. If, there isn't such a standard then I guess I probably have to live with it.

Ankur.
