Any gas processing unit must typically be equipped with a gas dehydration system to remove any accompanying water, so as to meet the standards for finished natural gas. In the United States, finished natural gas pipelines are required to have a water content of no more than 7 lb/MMSCF, while in Canada it is 5 lb/MMSCF. Triethylene glycol, as a liquid desiccant, is currently the most common and cost-effective method for removing large amounts of water from natural gas. Since the first triethylene glycol dehydration unit was installed at the beginning of the 20th century, thousands of such units have been installed around the world. The natural gas triethylene glycol dehydration technology, as a mature and standardized solution, exhibits excellent adaptability for dehydrating a wide range of moisture contents. This article provides a brief troubleshooting checklist that proves useful for field operators and maintenance personnel. Although this list cannot resolve all the problems that arise during the operation of triethylene glycol dehydration units once and for all, it does provide an overview of the most common issues as well as the inspections and procedures required to address them. This list cannot replace experienced operators and maintenance personnel with many years of experience in the operation and troubleshooting of triethylene glycol dehydration units.
