The present invention provides a process for natural gas in the form, e.g., of
stranded gas or associated gas to transportable liquids. More particularly, the
present invention provides a process in which the gas is non-oxidatively converted
to aromatic liquid, preferably in proximity to the welihead, which may be onshore
or offshore. In one aspect, the present invention provides integration of separation
of wellhead fluids into associated gas and crude with blending of the aromatic
liquid derived from the gas with the crude. Alternatively, or in combination, in
another aspect, the present invention provides integration of conversion of byproduct
hydrogen to power with non-oxidative conversion of gas to aromatic liquid.
