Original Abstract Submitted
A method to perform operations of a natural gas liquid (NGL) plant equipment iws disclosed. The method includes obtaining real time process condition parameters of the NGL plant equipment, calculating, using an equation of state (EOS) and based on the real time process condition parameters, a compressibility factor of inlet and outlet streams of the NGL plant equipment, calculating, based on the calculated compressibility factor, a performance measure of the NGL plant equipment, and facilitating, based on the calculated performance measure, the operations of the NGL plant equipment.
