Condensate stabilisation is a separation process that removes dissolved light-end hydrocarbons (methane, ethane, propane, and butane) from raw liquid condensate recovered at the inlet of a gas processing plant or at wellhead separators. The objective is to produce a stable condensate — a liquid hydrocarbon stream with a sufficiently low Reid Vapour Pressure (RVP) and true vapour pressure (TVP) to allow safe atmospheric storage, transportation by pipeline or tanker, and blending with crude oil or export as natural gasoline.
