THE ROLE OF GTL PLANTS IN OIL AND GAS PROCESSING TECHNOLOGIES AND IMPROVING THE EFFICIENCY OF SYNTHETIC PRODUCTS FROM GAS

This paper analyzes the role of Gas-to-Liquid (GTL) plants in modern oil and gas processing technologies and explores ways to improve the efficiency of synthetic fuel production from natural gas. The GTL process provides an environmentally friendly alternative to conventional refining by converting natural gas into high-quality synthetic fuels such as diesel, naphtha, and wax. The study discusses the main technological stages of GTL plants — gas reforming, Fischer-Tropsch synthesis, and product upgrading — and highlights the importance of process optimization and catalyst development in increasing conversion efficiency. The paper also examines Uzbekistan GTL as a key example of the practical application of these technologies in the global energy transition.
