The Tech Inc. Deoiling Hydrocyclone Skid separates dispersed oil from produced water using energy the process already has: the pressure from the upstream separator. Water enters each hydrocyclone tangentially and spins at high speed; the lighter oil moves to the centre and leaves as a small reject stream, while the cleaned water leaves at the underflow. With no moving parts and a compact footprint, it is the natural first deoiling step at onshore and offshore production facilities.
Main components
- Pressure vessels holding multiple deoiling hydrocyclone liners
- Inlet, clean-water outlet and reject-oil headers with isolation valves
- Pressure differential ratio (PDR) control valves and transmitters for reject control
- Optional feed booster pump where separator pressure is too low
- Sand-flush connections for removing solids from the vessels
- Local instrument panel and PLC, with signals to the plant DCS or SCADA
Applications: produced-water deoiling downstream of production separators, water injection and waterflood projects, disposal-well protection, and offshore platforms and compact onshore facilities.
