Page 21 - Handbook of Natural Gas Transmission and Processing Principles and Practices

Endorsements for the Fourth Edition

This handbook is a valuable reference that covers all aspects of the natural gas transmission and
processing industries. It contains much needed design, operation, and optimization information, all in a
single source and does an excellent job of highlighting the key considerations for any gas processing
project, as well as providing innovative solutions in natural gas liquids recovery and treating high
nitrogen and carbon dioxide content gases in unconventional gas plants. It is a key addition to any gas
processing professional's library.

Jason Kraynek, Vice President of Business Transformation & Innovations, Fluor, USA.

This handbook is a valuable reference that covers all aspects of natural gas processing and handling. It
has been fully updated in this fourth edition to also cover the recent developments in dealing with more
sour gases and gases that contain all kinds of contaminants. It provides a good insight into the
operational and technical aspects of handling of natural gases. A great reference for students, operators,
and engineers working in the natural gas industry.

Frank Scheel, Director of Technology, Jacobs—Comprimo Sulfur Solutions, the Netherlands.

This well-balanced book is a must read for anyone in the natural gas business due to its completeness in
the coverage of all aspects of the natural gas transmission and processing industry. In addition to
covering some topics rarely discussed and hard to find in the literature, it fully addresses the complex
elements of the gas processing industry as well as practical advices for the safe design and operation of
gas plants in a straightforward fashion, which makes the book appealing to all parties who are involved in
the natural gas field development projects.

Philip Hunter, Senior Vice President—Global LNG/FLNG/GTL Technology & Development, KBR,
UK.

This high quality, comprehensive book gives an accurate picture of where the natural gas transmission
and processing industry stands today, and describes some relatively new technologies that could become
important in the future. I recommend this book for any professional gas processing engineer and
technologist.

David Messersmith, Bechtel Fellow and Manager of LNG Technology and Services Group, Bechtel
OG&C, USA.

This is a valuable handbook to both an experienced engineer and a graduate just commencing in natural
gas engineering. It provides practical advice for design and operation based on sound engineering
principles and established techniques as well as introducing process solutions based on new and
emerging technologies.

Adrian Finn, Manager of Process Technology, Costain Natural Resources, UK.

This is a wide ranging book providing the reader with much more information than that necessary to just
support the engineering of a gas plant. Having introduced the fundamental science of natural gas, it
covers sources, products, transportation, and economics of natural gas production, before covering all the
unit operations involved in gas treatment to meet product specifications. Additional sections are
included covering control systems, dynamic simulation, maximizing gas plant profitability, and gas
plant project management, and these contribute to what is a holistic handbook that will educate all those
