Product Definition
Fuel gas conditioning systems are used for treatment of raw
production gas. They are designed to deliver clean, treated gas
that is necessary for gas-driven equipment such as turbines
and generators. The treated gas can also be used as seal gas,
blanketing gas or utility gas. Fuel gas conditioning systems are
commonly referred to as fuel gas skids, fuel gas systems or fuel
gas filtration and heating packages.
Product Description
If produced gas is left untreated before entering the combustion
chamber of gas driven generators, it can result in major damage.
Even small amounts of liquids and/or solids or over-pressurized gas
entering the combustion chamber will have detrimental effects. Our
systems are designed to protect gas-fueled engines and turbines
from over-pressure, liquids, solids and aerosols. Furthermore, heating
the gas properly above the dew point of the water and hydrocarbon
prevents liquid condensation in the combustion chambers.

Frames has more than 20 years of experience in
building fuel gas related packages, and extensive
knowledge with regard to high-quality gas
requirements. We design, engineer and manufacture
each fuel gas package as a customized solution,
tailored to the specific requirements of the client.
All gas conditions and desires of the fuel gas
consumer are taken into account, whether it
concerns a turbine, engine or any other equipment
that relies on conditioned gas. Frames ensures that
the package is safe, delivers the correct amount
of gas at the exact pressure and conditions, with
full instrumental control and feedback systems to
monitor every parameter of the package.
Frames designs the system and performs
simulations to ensure all requirements are met
or exceeded, and the design conditions for the
package are set and safe. We usually adjust the
following parameters in a fuel gas package:
1. Temperature
2. Pressure
3. Solid removal (dust and particles)
4. Condensate and water removal (liquids)
Reducing the pressure, scrubbing, filtering, cooling
and/or heating the gas ensures that clean and dry
gas is delivered to the combustion chamber at the
required pressure and temperature.

Process Description
The package design typically consists of a scrubber vessel or knock-
out drum, filter-coalescer units, heaters, pressure reduction valves,
emergency and operational valves, and (flow) metering, and is often
placed downstream of production header, glycol contactor or separator
for conditioning. Depending on the feed gas inlet conditions, fuel gas
systems may be equipped with heaters or coolers.
Frames Fuel Gas Conditioning Systems use pressure control valves to
reduce the pressure of the production gas to the level required by the
user. The resulting adiabatic cooling effect can cause condensates to
form. Liquids entrained in the gas and condensates will be scrubbed
to avoid any liquid carry-over into downstream equipment. The gas
is channeled to the filter-coalescer units to further remove any liquid
carry-over as well as solid particles. In some cases, pre-heating is
required before the gas is let down.
During the final steps of the process, the gas can be superheated to
ensure temperatures above the dew point far downstream, ready for
delivery to the consumer.
