Abstract
An optimization method based on statistical modeling relating NGL plant process variables. The modeling may rely on input data from process history and modeled data. The method identifies process scenarios when a compressor from an associated propane/propylene refrigeration system may be deactivated and still allow the NGL plant to achieve product specification.
