Condensate stabilization is one of the most common operations in the gas processing world. Theprincipal considerations affecting the performance of the plant when debottlenecking or designing newcondensate stabilization units are the configurations, product quality, energy saving, and equipment size.Sound process design can significantly reduce capital investments and operating costs. The purpose ofthis paper is to review and illustrate the fundamentals of this process, including flow-sheet configurationand key operating parameters, and to show how they affect the plant performance, including energyconsumption and economics.
