Midstream Oil & Gas Industry
The midstream oil & gas industry refers to the segment of the energy sector responsible for the transportation, storage, and wholesale marketing of crude oil, natural gas, and refined products.
🔹 Key Functions:
Transportation: Moving oil and gas from production sites (upstream) to refineries or distribution centers (downstream), primarily via pipelines, tankers, rail, or trucks.
Storage: Temporary holding of hydrocarbons in tanks, underground caverns, or terminals.
Processing: In some cases, includes natural gas processing (removing impurities and separating NGLs).
🔹 Role in the Industry:
Midstream acts as a critical link between exploration & production (upstream) and refining & distribution (downstream), ensuring the safe, efficient, and continuous flow of hydrocarbons from the wellhead to the end-user.
Our experts at Moazzel will assist you in finding the right equipment for your needs:
- Pipes (Carbon steel, stainless steel, HDPE for specific applications)
- Valves (Gate, ball, check, plug, and control valves)
- Flanges, Gaskets, and Fittings (For pipeline connections and sealing)
- Gas Compressors (Reciprocating, centrifugal, screw types)
- Oil Pumps (Centrifugal, positive displacement)
- Flow Meters (Turbine, ultrasonic, Coriolis, and orifice meters)
- Pipeline Monitoring Sensors (Acoustic, pressure, strain sensors)
- Portable Test Equipment (For NDT, ultrasonic, pressure testing).
Downstream Oil & Gas Industry
The downstream oil & gas industry is the final sector of the petroleum value chain. It involves the refining of crude oil, processing of natural gas, and the marketing and distribution of petroleum products to end users.
đź”» Key Activities:
Refining: Converting crude oil into usable products such as gasoline, diesel, jet fuel, lubricants, asphalt, and petrochemicals.
Natural Gas Processing: Purifying raw gas and separating methane, ethane, propane, and other valuable components.
Distribution: Transporting refined products via pipelines, tankers, rail, or truck to wholesalers, retailers, and consumers.
Marketing & Retail: Selling fuel and other products through gas stations, retail outlets, and commercial supply contracts.
đź”» Main Outputs:
Fuels (e.g., gasoline, diesel, LPG)
Petrochemicals (e.g., ethylene, propylene)
Industrial products (e.g., solvents, asphalt)
Consumer products (e.g., lubricants, waxes)
đź”» Role in the Industry:
Downstream connects the oil & gas industry to the global economy and everyday consumers, playing a vital role in supplying energy, materials, and fuel for transportation, manufacturing, and domestic use.
