Good for verification of similar software Yes Yes Yes
Control conditions to maintain operation in single phase gas region. Yes Yes Yes
Decide max amounts of rich gases allowed at inlet points based on HCDP calculations Yes Yes Yes
Can be used for very rich natural gases3 No Yes Yes
Can be used for flowing conditions in vapor plus liquid 2 phase flow pipelines No Yes No
Evaluate operation in the temperature-pressure region of phase envelope  No Yes No

1 Interactivity between the products requires license of C6HCDPmatch and one of the other products.
2. calculations above can be performed at natural gas pipeline operating conditions, metering conditions, compressor inlet conditions, gas turbine inlet conditions, and separator vapor outlet conditions
3. very rich natural gas is defined here as > 1% C6+
4. extends Gas Analysis mathematically to match calculated dp with measured dp temp at pipeline pressure
