INTRODUCTION

Natural gas plays a critical role in global energy supply, and LNG has become one of the most important solutions for transporting gas across international markets. LNG & Gas Processing requires a deep understanding of gas composition, process design, treatment requirements, cryogenic behavior, and operational reliability. This course introduces participants to the complete gas processing value chain, beginning with raw gas handling and continuing through separation, sweetening, dehydration, natural gas liquids recovery, liquefaction, storage, shipping, and regasification. It explains how each processing stage affects product quality, plant efficiency, safety performance, and commercial value. Participants will examine essential technologies such as amine treating, molecular sieve dehydration, refrigeration cycles, turboexpanders, fractionation systems, and LNG heat exchangers. The program also highlights the importance of process control, hazard management, emissions reduction, maintenance planning, and operational optimization. Realistic examples are used to connect technical concepts with daily challenges faced in LNG and gas processing facilities. The course is suitable for professionals working in upstream, midstream, downstream, project development, and energy infrastructure environments. Its practical structure helps participants build knowledge that can be applied directly to technical evaluation, operational improvement, and decision-making.
