Triethylene Glycol (TEG) is a glycol used mainly for moisture control in the oil and gas industry. As a triethylene glycol supplier in the UAE, Corofy supplies TEG from Dubai to oil & gas operators and industrial buyers across the region, supporting the natural gas dehydration that protects pipelines and keeps plants running.
Industrial buyers rely on TEG for its stability, its reuse in regenerated dehydration systems and its consistent performance in continuous processing. It is part of our range of oil & gas chemicals.
Triethylene Glycol (TEG) Overview
Triethylene glycol is a clear, colourless, viscous liquid that strongly attracts water. It has a high boiling point and low volatility, and it can be regenerated by heating and reused many times. These properties make it the standard glycol for natural gas dehydration.
In natural gas processing, excess moisture causes corrosion, hydrate formation and flow restrictions. TEG is circulated through dehydration units to absorb water vapour from the gas before transport or further processing, and its performance through repeated high-temperature regeneration supports long operating cycles.
Triethylene Glycol Specifications
Product Identification
- Product Name: Triethylene Glycol (TEG)
Packaging & Documentation
- Documentation: COA, SDS / MSDS available
Containers are sealed to keep out moisture, which TEG absorbs readily. Volumes for projects or continuous demand can be planned with our team.
Applications of Triethylene Glycol (TEG)
TEG is used wherever water must be removed from a gas stream, or where a hygroscopic, low-volatility glycol is needed.
Natural Gas Dehydration
- Absorbs water vapour from natural gas in glycol contactors.
- Helps prevent hydrates, corrosion and flow restrictions in pipelines.
- Regenerated in the reboiler and reused over long operating cycles.
Upstream & Midstream Gas Facilities
- Gas dehydration units at wellsites, gathering stations and gas plants.
- Pipeline protection systems and gas processing facilities.
Beyond Gas Dehydration
While oil and gas remains its primary market, Triethylene Glycol is also used in selected industrial applications where controlled solvency and thermal stability are required. These include solvent-based processes, formulation support and industrial fluid systems that demand consistent moisture management.
- Liquid desiccant in air-drying and dehumidification systems.
- Humectant and solvent in industrial formulations.
- Intermediate for plasticisers and resins.

Handling, Storage & Safety
Triethylene glycol has low acute toxicity but can irritate the eyes. Because it absorbs moisture from the air, keep containers tightly sealed and store them in a cool, dry place away from strong oxidising agents. Follow standard industrial safety practice and the SDS.
