About Course
The field of natural gas (NG) engineering is very much important for petroleum engineers specializing in gas processing technology.
The course outlines an optimal balance between natural gas production, natural gas processing, and gas transportation. An extensive treatise on (NG) engineering, both upstream and gas refining processes with key equipment and facility design will be covered. This course will also highlight the current status of the production of natural gas through unconventional sources/technics and the applications of (NG).
