Abstract

This thesis discusses many aspects of natural gas processing namely sour gases separation, CO2 sequestration for EOR, and natural gas regasification. Two technologies of sour gases removal processes have been simulated using HYSYS. In addition, an experimental study of the effect the porosity in the real rock in underground reservoir on CO2 injection has been conducted. Finally, an innovative finned vaporizer with invasive defrosting method has been tested experimentally in a pilot-scale forced-draft unit. Defrosting was performed by using a hot MEG-water solution cycle.
