Abstract

Six industrial and emerging catalytic technologies suitable for complete processing of all the components of associated petroleum gas, including methane and ethane, were reviewed. Process schemes for methanol, olefins, synthetic crude oil, gasoline, aromatics, and polymers were considered. A comparative analysis of the technologies in terms of demand for gas feedstock, potential markets for products, capital costs, and other economic indicators was carried out for the associated petroleum gas volumes typical for small and medium-sized oil fields.
