Operators must take a more practical and less theoretical approach to the design and construction of three-phase separators, with an honest assessment of their separation needs.

Innovative technologies will be critical to the industry as it manages through an oil price downturn, and the industry must create a supportive environment for startup companies that promotes the growth and competition needed for a stable marketplace.

A new chapter begins today for Oil and Gas Facilities.  In our move to an online publication, we’ve done far more than offer a different way of reading our content. Explore the many ways you can find the content that is most relevant and valuable to you.

SPE PFC Technical Director Howard Duhon announces the incoming PFC Technical Director and shares his experiences from his trip to Alaska for the June SPE Board meeting.

DNV’s new training center will run full-scale experiments for a joint industry project aimed at investigating cost-efficient explosion load descriptions for process areas.

Why CFD should be part of your separator design? This goal of this goal is to allay any fears about CFD that you may have as a result of flashbacks to university class and a dizzying array of partial-differential equations.

This month's papers address one of the effects of an alkaline-surfactant-polymer flood on changes to the emulsion rheology, the conservation of flared associated gas from two onshore Tunisian fields despite high H2S and CO2 content, and minimizing HSE impacts for pipelines in the Baltic Sea.

The present work describes the development of a 1D steady-state isothermal reservoir/surface gas-pipeline-network model. The developed model is an extension of the general pipeline-network model in which the deliverability from the wells is calculated.

During the design of two parallel gas pipelines from Russia to Germany through the Baltic Sea, major design changes were made to minimize project impacts, resulting in rapid approval by all five affected countries.

In this paper, the authors report results from experiments as well as modeling of water/oil-emulsion rheology that can form during alkaline/surfactant/polymer injections for enhanced recovery.
