Potential Operating Problem

Foamy Crudes Problems

Posted on September 2, 2009

The major cause of foam in crude oil is the appearance of impurities, other than water, which are impractical to remove before the stream reaches…

Three Phase Separator Sizing

Three Phase Vertical Separators Sizing

Posted on September 14, 2009October 30, 2012

As with vertical two-phase separators, a minimum diameter must be  maintained to assure adequate gas capacity. In addition, vertical threephase  separators must maintain a minimum…

Hydrates

Hydrate Formation Temperature or Pressure Determination

Posted on September 15, 2009October 28, 2012

Knowledge of the temperature and pressure of a gas stream at the wellhead is important for determining whether hydrate formation can be expected when the…

Separation Flow Control

Posted on August 20, 2009

It is very rare that flow must be controlled in an oil field process. Normally, the control of pressure, level, and temperature is sufficient. Occasionally,…

Process Separator Operating Pressure

Posted on August 20, 2009October 31, 2012

The choice of separator operating pressures in a multistage system is large. For large facilities many options should be investigated before a final choice is…

Two Phase Separator Sizing

Two Phase Horizontal Separators Sizing

Posted on September 14, 2009October 30, 2012

For sizing a horizontal separator it is necessary to choose a seam-toseam  vessel length and a diameter. This choice must satisfy the conditions  for gas…

Water Treating Theory

Water Treating Dispersion

Posted on September 3, 2009October 28, 2012

An oscillating droplet of oil becomes unstable when the kinetic energy is sufficient to make up for the difference in the surface energy between the…

Produced Water Treating System

Water Treating Processes

Posted on September 2, 2009

In producing operations it is often necessary to handle waste water that may include water produced with crude oil, rain water, and washdown water. The…

Basic Separation

Horizontal Two Phase Separator Basic Design

Posted on August 17, 2009October 30, 2012

Separators are designed in either horizontal, vertical, or spherical configurations. Figure 4-1 is a schematic of a horizontal separator. The initial gross separation of liquid…
