ABSTRACT
Gas processors usually take responsibility for the gas after it leaves the gas-liquid separator at the wellhead because well operations are normally not under their direct supervision. This chapter touches on wellhead operations and then discusses the field operations and equipment for moving the gas into the gas plant and then through inlet receiving, the first of many gas-liquid separations in the typical gas plant. The chapter includes a discussion of gas hydrates because their control and prevention are critical to field operations.
