FIELD: erection of underground gas transporting pipe lines. SUBSTANCE: chute 2 made from nonconducting material along entire length of gas line 2; electrode 3 is arranged in this chute. Gas line 1 is laid at inclination in way of motion of gas. At terminal point of gas line 1 well 6 is provided, where steam trap 7 is located. Prior to gas transportation, wall 9 of gas line 1 is connected with positive pole of DC source and electrode 3 is connected with its negative pole, thus creating electrostatic field inside gas line 1; under the action of this field, water particles are removed from gas in the course of gas transportation. EFFECT: enhanced reliability. 2 cl, 4 dwg
