  2. Separator (oil production) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Separator_(oil_production)

    Separator (oil production) The term separator in oilfield terminology designates a pressure vessel used for separating well fluids produced from oil and gas wells into gaseous and liquid components. A separator for petroleum production is a large vessel designed to separate production fluids into their constituent components of oil, gas and water.

    the gas/oil ratio; the vapor pressure specification of the crude oil export stream; First stage separators in the Gulf of Mexico typically operate at 1500 to 1800 psi (103.4 to 124.1 bar), they operate as 2-phase liquid and vapour separators with a liquid residence time of 1 to 2 minutes. Produced water is removed in the low pressure (LP) 3 ...

  4. Gas–oil separation plant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gasoil_separation_plant

    Temporary plant. Temporary gas–oil separation facilities are associated with newly drilled or newly sidetracked wells where the production potential of the well is being assessed. [1] The plant, comprising a test separator vessel, is connected to the wellhead after the choke valve. The separator allows the fluids to separate by gravity into ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Well_test_(oil_and_gas)

    Well test (oil and gas) In the petroleum industry, a well test is the execution of a set of planned data acquisition activities. The acquired data is analyzed to broaden the knowledge and increase the understanding of the hydrocarbon properties therein and characteristics of the underground reservoir where the hydrocarbons are trapped.

  6. API oil–water separator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/API_oil–water_separator

    An API oil–water separator is a device designed to separate gross amounts of oil and suspended solids from industrial wastewater produced at oil refineries, petrochemical plants, chemical plants, natural gas processing plants and other industrial oily water sources. The API separator is a gravity separation device designed by using Stokes Law ...

  7. Slugcatcher - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slugcatcher

    The initial section of the lower pipes provides for further gas/liquid separation and the far end provides a buffer storage volume for the liquids which are drawn off at a steady rate for further treatment. [3] The operating pressure in the slug catcher is maintained by a pressure controller and pressure control valve in the gas outlet.

  8. Crude oil stabilisation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crude_oil_stabilisation

    Crude oil stabilisation (or stabilization) is a partial distillation process that renders crude oil suitable for storage in atmospheric tanks, or of a quality suitable for sales or pipeline transportation. Stabilization is achieved by subjecting ‘live’ crude to temperature and pressure conditions in a fractionation vessel, which drives off ...

  9. Mud Gas Separator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mud_Gas_Separator

    Mud Gas Separator is commonly called a gas-buster or poor boy degasser. It captures and separates the large volumes of free gas within the drilling fluid. If there is a "kick" situation, this vessel separates the mud and the gas by allowing it to flow over baffle plates. The gas then is forced to flow through a line, venting to a flare.
