Over the coming decades our society has a significant challenge in achieving globally significant reductions in greenhouse gas emissions. Numerous studies show that large-scale geologic disposal of CO2 from industrial emissions will be essential to…
Unprocessed petroleum hydrocarbons often contain high concentrations of mercury (Hg), which can severely damage the metal components of a processing plant and pose a health risk to the workers and the natural environment. Although Hg removal units…
Quifa is one of the largest heavy-oil fields in Colombia with a total fluids production of 1,320 KBPD with a water cut of 96.7% through 272 active wells, approximatively. Facilities to handle such amounts of water, have to deliver crude oil under…
The process of monitoring the gas compositions outside from the separation stages of gas from oil, is a very important process and gives a complete perception of the optimization of these facilities, for processing oil and through this can be…
Almost always crude oil is produced in conjunction with associated gas and for the type of reservoir considered in this study, gas production rate over time increases with decreasing pressure. The problem of maimizing production and/or recovery can…
This paper highlights several opportunities to maximize the total crude oil yield of typical Gas Oil Separation Plants (GOSP's), gas handling and crude oil stabilization systems. This can be achieved for existing facilities by optimizing operating…
Deep-sea oil and gas fields are acting as a vital role by providing substantial oil and gas resource, and Floating Production Storage and Offloading is an indispensable tool for the development of offshore oil and gas fields effectively. Here, Life…
