Rifka Aisyah 4 Comments

In almost every gas processing plant, there will be natural gas dehydration unit. Sometimes, it is called dehydration unit (DHU) or dehydrator. When, I was working in Tripatra and involving in Senoro Gas Development Project, the facilities consisted of dehydration unit as one of them.

Natural gas dehydration unit is an important facilities in onshore and offshore gas processing plant. Its function are:

  • To mitigate risk of water condensation, which leads to flow capacity issues (pipeline clogging and blocking)
  • To prevent hydrate formation or to minimize corrosion
  • To ensure smooth operation in downstream facilities. For example, gas pipeline is usually required 4-7 lb/MMSCF water content (87.2-152.6 ppm). For cryogenic unit (to produce LNG), water content in gas shall be less than 1 ppm. For CNG plant, before entering compressor unit, water content shall be reduced to maximum 3 lb/MMSCF to meet product specification.

Two weeks ago, I got an amazing opportunity to participate in Bandung Creative Writer Festival, an event organized by KPKers (Creative Writers Community).

In this event I learnt how to motivate ourselves to be consistent in producing writings, how to gain ideas for our writings, and many more.

There are three speakers in this event, which are Jumadi Haryadi, who gave tips and trick to easily write something (we even practiced it in the event), Pak Adrie Noor, who has published books abroad, and Pak Ali Muakhir, who has wrote many kids and teenagers books.

Motivation First!

We write because we have motivation to write. What is your writing motivation? What your motivation is will drive you to be a lasted writer or temporary writer.
