Oil & Gas Production Separator

Oil & Gas Seperators

Oil and gas separators are pressure vessels used to separate a well stream into its primary components — oil, gas, and water. They play a crucial role in upstream oil & gas processing by ensuring efficient phase separation before further treatment or transport.

To achieve high separation efficient, production separators are designed considering several principles, such as gravity, coalescing, and momentum. HC also designs production separators with heating system, allowing better separation during handling heavier crudes, and working in cold environment. Oil & Gas Production Separators are usually horizontal gas-liquid separation units, which consist of horizontal pressure vessel with separator internals, several types of gauges, valves, ESD system, skid, steel structures, and other beneficial features, which allow safe and easy operation. Based on the client’s requirements to automation and control, HC can design both mechanically automated and digitally automated production separators.

Mechanically automated production separators have pneumatic mechanical controllers, pressure mechanical controllers, control valves, regulators, air and control instrumentations. All controllers are calibrated after production and during commissioning, so after sensing increased pressure or level than calibrated parameters, air is supplied to required control unit to make control valve regulate flow of all main process lines. Digitally automated production manifold applies digital level, temperature and pressure transmitters, which sends signal to controllers, which activate control valves and other instrumentation to regulate flow as per required parameters. Pneumatically operated instruments and valves require supply of compressed air to the instrument. HC offers quality assembly of stainless-steel piping and fitting for air supplying on separator. We design compressed air lines, air inlet/distribution manifolds and air scrubbers installing on a skid and allowing operator easy access and operation.

Samarth Engineers production separators also have several safety devices, such as pressure relief valves, burst discs, ESD ball valve, high temperature and pressure transmitters, which ensure safety of personnel and equipment during emergency. Convenient frame and steel structures are suitable both for road and sea transportation. Steel structures are designed considering the total weight of transportation, as well as calculation to strength and payload.
