Kaleem, question require more elaboration, whether you are asking about Water Dew Point or Hydrocarbon Dew Point. Water Dew Point in Sale Gas should be around18 F (depending on Contractual limits specified, normally7 lb / MMSCFD).

Hydrocarbon Dew Point contractual limit is30 F normally. If gas has more HCDP then it may requires technologies to extract the "heaviers" (like LPG recovery plants etc)
