Desalting, Dehydration & Emulsion Operations
Introduction:
Many oil production processes present a significant challenge to oil and water treating equipment design and operations. The nature of crude oil emulsions changes continuously as the producing field depletes and conditions change with time. This creates the need to consider future performance when designing treatment systems and requires an understanding of scale and up-scaling. The course explores all the theories and technologies involved in crude oil and water treatment, starting with emulsion theory formation, stabilization and the mechanism and technology to destabilize and separate water from oil.
After the oil has been dehydrated, some oil will still not meet contract specifications due to the amount of salt present. For this reason, the course also discusses desalting technologies and processes needed to achieve required oil specifications. Due to environmental regulations and water injection specifications, produced water must also be treated. The course provides a summary of the technologies, processes and operational conditions needed to achieve the required specifications for the produced water.
Course Objectives:
By the end of this course delegates will be able to:
