Abstract
There is provided a natural gas refining unit and a method for converting natural gas into a refined product at a battery site of an oil production facility. The refining unit comprises an optional vapor-liquid separator configured to separate an oil-water emulsion from a pipeline of the battery site into a liquid phase and a gas phase comprising natural gas, and a reactor, or a plurality of reactors connected in series, configured to convert natural gas from the vapor-liquid separator or, when the vapor-liquid separator is absent, from a treater of the battery site into the refined product. The method comprises the steps of collecting the natural gas at the battery site and feeding the natural gas to a natural gas refining unit.
