B-Heat: Line Heaters

B-Heat Overview

Line Heaters are used with high-pressure natural gas streams to counteract the cooling effect when the gas pressure is reduced to sales line Pressure or needed pressure. The reduction in pressure causes a Joule-Thomson (JT) effect. The JT effect causes rapid cooling of the gas stream, which can result in hydrate formation. Line Heaters can also be used to heat and stabilize oil to aid in separation and fluid movement.
