All over here in North Texas there are all sorts of little gas plants (about 5 acres in size) converting natural gas into all sorts of product one of which is the simple separation of #2 diesel from the gas. Then there were these guys from new Mexico who
centrifuge natural gas at the wellhead, sadly they got the swollhead moved to California to get backing from the elitists and went broke fighting the regulations and waiting on that check in the mail.

LOL!!! I've worked design, construction and start-up of some of the Natural Gas Processing plants. The do not produce diesel from the gas. They separate out Natural Gas liquids like ethane and propane from the Natural Gas stream. They do not have heavier fractions like those found in crude oil.

Then there were these guys from new Mexico who claim they might be able centrifuge natural gas at the wellhead, I fixed your statement above. From the article you linked:
He is seeking $625,000 in seed funds to develop a prototype unit to demo the technology at a natural gas well.
They had only built a theoretical lab model, not an actual working unit. They were trying to produce cash from the gullible, not diesel from a well.

To help you understand what happens at a Natural Gas Processing plant, here is a simplified flow diagram.
