Oil Treating Process

Posted on August 21, 2009October 31, 2012

Most oil treating on offshore facilities is done in vertical or horizontal treaters, such as those described in “Crude Oil Treating System“. Figure 2-8 is…

Mechanical Design of Pressure Vessels

Separator Pressure Vessels Temperature Design

Posted on September 23, 2009

The maximum and minimum design temperatures for a vessel will determine the maximum allowable stress value permitted for the material to be used in the…

Stages Separation Selection

Posted on August 20, 2009October 29, 2012

As more stages are added to the process there is less and less incremental liquid recovery. The diminishing income for adding a stage must more…

Mechanical Design of Pressure Vessels

Pressure Vessels Ladder and Platform

Posted on September 24, 2009October 29, 2012

Vessel Supports Small vertical vessels may be supported by angle support legs, as shown in Figure 12-11. Larger vertical vessels are generally supported by a…

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…

Two Phase Separator Theory

Two Phase Separator Retention Time

Posted on September 14, 2009

To assure that the liquid and gas reach equilibrium at separator pressure a certain liquid storage is required. This is defined as “retention time” or…

Shell and Tube Exchangers

Heat Exchanger Selections

Posted on September 14, 2009October 31, 2012

In selecting an exchanger, one must know the advantages and disadvantages of each type. The three basic types of shell-and-tube exchangers are fixed tube sheet,…

Fractions from atmospheric and vacuum distillation

Vacuum Distillation of Atmospheric Residue

Posted on September 26, 2009October 28, 2012

In modern refinery practice the distillation of atmospheric residue is accomplished under high vacuum conditions in a specially designed tower whose internal equipment ensures a…

LTX Units and Line Heaters

LTX Unit Condensate Stabilizer

Posted on May 27, 2013

It should be clear from the description of LTX units that the lower pressure separator in an LTX unit is a simple form of cold-feed…
