ABSTRACT:
Described are a process and an apparatus for transporting and treating a natural gas.
The process according to the invention comprises contacting in a zone G.sub.1 the gas issuing from a production well (1) with a liquid phase coming at least in part from recycling (4) and containing water and at least one anti-corrosion additive and/or at least one anti-hydrate additive which is at least partly water-miscible and vaporizing in the pure state or in azeotrope form; transporting the additive-charge gaseous phase in a conduit (5), cooling it at E.sub.1, separating at B.sub.1 an aqueous phase from the non-condensed gas which is collected by way of a conduit (10) and recycling the additive-charged aqueous phase to the contact zone G.sub.1 by way of the line (9, 4).
The process and apparatus are for the transportation of natural gas over long distances in particular.
