Gas to Liquid (GTL) is a refinery process technology to convert natural gas into hydrocarbon liquid products (synthetic gasoline or middle distillates), using the Fischer Tropsch synthesis method. Natural Gas is abundant, versatile and affordable, and GTL products contain almost none of the impurities such as sulphur, aromatics and nitrogen, and colourless and odourless. The gas is found in remote fields from a market such that delivery by pipeline is likely to be uneconomic.
