On the practical results of implementation of coalessors in oil-gas preparation

S.F. Musaev - BP Company

The paper deals with the issues of the implementation of coalessors for the separation of multi-phase fluids into particular phases during oil preparation for transportation. Various coalessors of liquid/liquid type (for separation of oil emulsions) and liquid/gas (for gas separation) have been analyzed.

The results of the coalessor implementation are presented, the maximum sizes of water drops washed with oil flow estimated, the necessity of the consideration of gas compressibility rate during the evaluation of the sedimentation of mechanical particles marked.
