1, 2, 3: Water vapor is separated from the gas in drying columns by a glycol drying process.
4, 5, 6, 7: Incoming gas goes through a purification process to remove solid and liquid impurities. This is performed by so-called “filter separators.“ Afterwards the gas is subject to quality controls.
8: Gas pipelines are regularly inspected, maintained, and cleaned. Entry points known as ”pig traps” are installed at the beginning and end of each section of pipeline. Here, cleaning and ”smart” pigs are fed into the pipeline. These are used to clean and inspect pipelines.
