Possible alternatives of locating a gas separating unit in layouts of plants for preparing gas for transporting and for field booster compressor stations (BCS) are examined. Designs of a gas cleaning unit of the first separation stage with a built-in lock interceptor based on vertical apparatuses are presented. The dynamics of development of separating equipment for protecting BCS is discussed. The problem of ambiguities in current normative-technical documents relating to technical specifications of gas preparing equipment before the BCS is identified.
