This Vertical Heater 4′ X 20′ Refurbished is a compact, high-performance vessel designed specifically for upstream oil and gas operations. Built as a non-code unit, it uses an internal firetube to apply heat and break emulsions—streamlining the separation of oil, gas, and water.
Ideal for remote or high-output production sites, this refurbished heater treater enhances throughput efficiency and reduces the burden on downstream processing equipment.
Function & Operation
Vertical heater treaters are crucial in early-stage oil production, where crude oil is commonly mixed with gas, water, and sediment. This unit applies heat through a firetube to break emulsions, enabling gravity-based separation:
-
Gas rises to the top
-
Water settles at the bottom
-
Oil remains in the middle
The result is cleaner fluid streams that are easier to handle, transport, and treat.
Applications
-
Oil/water/gas separation
-
Crude oil conditioning before transport
-
Wellhead separation for remote locations
-
Pre-processing to reduce downstream load
