Basic information about the physical and chemical properties of gas is given. The information about field objects of gas production is given. The theoretical foundations of the transport, storage and distribution of natural gas are outlined. Attention is paid to automatic control systems. Issues related to the operation of gas distribution networks and gas storages were widely covered. The transportation, storage, distribution and use of liquefied gases in the main production processes, for domestic purposes and in agriculture are considered. The issues of determining the quality of liquefied gases and the features of the operation of tanks for the storage of liquefied gases are highlighted. Spheres of optimal use of liquefied gases have been established, ways to improve the efficiency of their use have been outlined.A large amount of technological characteristics of the main and auxiliary equipment of gas facilities has been generalized and systematized.Designed for engineering and technical workers, graduate students , students of higher and secondary specialized educational institutions, as well as for students of oil and gas professional development courses.The appendix to the book is available for download on the website of the Infra-Engineering publishing house -
