2. Well outlet separation

While some wells produce dry gas that can be sent directly to processing or compression units, more often than not, a combination of gas, oil (in the sense of petroleum) and water is produced, which must be separated before any further processing. Generally speaking, natural gas condensate is a liquid mixture of "light hydrocarbons" obtained by condensation of certain raw natural gases. This condensate is a mixture of hydrocarbons of type C ₅ to C ₈ .
