Natural gas contains many components, some of which can cause damage to your equipment, pose a danger to your employees, and lower the market value of your natural gas inventories. Element’s natural gas composition and liquid petroleum hydrocarbon testing services can quantify the composition of your gas to lower risk and increase value.
Natural gas composition testing
Element offers a complete range of gas composition and hydrocarbon testing services with multiple applications including:
- Custody Transfer
- Reservoir Management
- Commodity Valuation
- Process Design and Optimization
- Production/Revenue Accounting
The Element advantage
By utilizing a state-of-the-art gas-chromatography oriented hydrocarbon analysis laboratory and a team of industry-recognized experts, Element performs analyses conforming to the Gas Processors Association (GPA), American Standard Test Methods (ASTM), and American Petroleum Institute (API) methodology. Our services extend beyond natural gases to hydrocarbon liquids ranging from liquefied natural gas to heavy oil and bitumen (density 1.000+).
