English term or phrase: natural gas liquids (NGLs)
Tschuldigung - ist nicht meine Spezialstrecke, ich weiß. Übersetze gerade einen Artikel über Anlagen in Ölwerten, und da wird ein bisschen Technik und Chemie erklärt.

Ich hätte gesagt "Kondensate", aber die sind extra erwähnt. Einfach "flüssiges Erdgas"?

mitgeförderte Flüssigkeit
Explanation:
This is the correct tech term IF they are referring to the various components of what is pumped
in the absence of CONTEXT, it's anybody's guess - could you give at least the sentence?
