Potential Operating Problem

Paraffin Problems

Posted on September 2, 2009

Separator operation can be adversely affected by an accumulation of paraffin. Coalescing plates in the liquid section and mesh pad mist extractors in the gas…

Mechanical Design of Pressure Vessels

Separator Pressure Vessels Vortex Breaker and Manways

Posted on September 24, 2009October 28, 2012

Vortex Breaker As liquid flows out of the exit nozzle, it will swirl and create a vortex. Vortexing would carry the gas out with the…

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…

Pressure Drop in Piping

Flow Regimes

Posted on September 25, 2009

Flow regimes describe the nature of fluid flow. There are two basic flow regimes for flow of a single-phase fluid: laminar flow and turbulent flow.…

Orifice Gas Flow Rate

Posted on September 25, 2009October 28, 2012

The flow rate for gas through a given orifice area or the area required  for a given flow rate is obtained by:

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…

Separation

Separator Initial Pressure

Posted on August 20, 2009October 31, 2012

Because of the multicomponent nature of the produced fluid, the higher the pressure at which the initial separation occurs, the more liquid will be obtained…

Shell and Tube Exchangers

Heat Exchanger Placement of Fluid

Posted on September 14, 2009

The question always comes up of which fluid to put in the tubes and which fluid to put in the shell. Consider placing a fluid…

Influent Water Quality

Water Treating System Produced Water

Posted on September 5, 2009October 31, 2012

The first step in choosing a water treating system is to characterize the influent water streams. It is necessary to know both the oil concentration…

Condensate Stabilization

Partial Pressure

Posted on September 16, 2009October 29, 2012

The fraction of any one component that flashes to gas at any stage in a process is a function of the temperature, pressure, and composition…
