Publication number: 20140174122Abstract: A compact transportable apparatus for flexibly recovering natural gas liquids from a natural gas stream feedstock includes a replaceable segment on one or more natural gas liquids transfer lines that is removable in the field without cutting the line for replacement with different replaceable part, for example, a J-T valve replacing a length of pipe, for flexibility in adjusting performance of the apparatus to match on site or changing conditions of the natural gas stream feedstock. Insulation surrounding the replaceable segment is discontinuous with insulation surrounding the remainder of the natural gas liquids transfer line in which the segment is interposed. This allows separation of the segment from such transfer line without disturbing the insulation of the remainder of that natural gas liquids transfer line if the replaceable segment is removed and replaced with a different replaceable segment.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 31, 2013Publication date: June 26, 2014Inventors: Gary Cooper, Donnie W.
