With a 10-foot length and 30-inch diameter, it is built to handle up to 125 working pressure (WP). This vessel is painted tan for added durability and aesthetic appeal, and can be painted whatever color you would like. The separator is designed for optimal performance, and we offer full certification to code, cleaning, and hydro testing for guaranteed reliability.
What Does a Oil and Gas Separator Do?
Key Purpose of a Separator:
The main goal of the separator in the oil and gas industry is to facilitate the separation of each component (oil, gas, solids, and water) from a slurry for subsequent handling, treatment, and disposal. Using a separator is optimal for safety, cost-efficiency, and environmental compliance.
An oil and gas separator is used to separate the mixture of oil, gas, and water that comes from an oil well or gas reservoir. The raw well stream often contains a combination of hydrocarbons, water, and natural gas, along with impurities like solids. Some people call this a slurry. The separator takes the slurry and breaks these components down into distinct phases, allowing for their individual handling:
- Gas rises to the top, ready for further processing or transport.
- Oil settles in the middle layer and is extracted for storage or refining.
- Water accumulates at the bottom and is either treated or disposed of.
This separation process is crucial for optimizing production, preventing pipeline damage, and making sure that each component is efficiently processed in its respective system.
How It Works:
The separator works by utilizing differences in the physical properties of the components—such as density and pressure. It separates these phases within a controlled environment where gravity and pressure differences allow each component to stratify:
- Gas: The lightest phase, which rises to the top of the separator.
- Oil: Lies between the gas and water layers due to its moderate density.
- Water: The heaviest phase, which settles at the bottom.
Once separated, the oil, gas, and water are directed to different outlets for further treatment, storage, or disposal, depending on the specific process requirements and application.
