    Surge Vessl with Internal Oil Bucket.

    Dear LittleInch, The surge vessel operates between 1-3 psig. A utility gas is used to maintain the pressure and prevent vacuum within the vessel during pumping activities as the operation would be continuous. Like I said earlier, the vessel provide hold-up for the pipeline pumps. The oil...

    Surge Vessl with Internal Oil Bucket.

    Hi all, Please I need information on how to design a Produced Water surge Vessel. The original intent of the Produced Water Surge Vessel Design is to provide a hold-up volume for the pipeline pumps. The water inlet into the vessel is from the upstream Flotation cell and Skimmers. The Client...

    How to determine the required blanketing gas rate

    Dear All, A produced water surge vessel is designed to collect treated produced water from the production platform before it is transported to the Water Injection platform via a dedicated PW pipeline pumps. Two pumps are designed to be operating simultaneously at 25,000 BWPD per pump (total...

    Determination of Pump PSHL Set Point

    I am designing a pumping system that involves me providing the set point for the high and low pressure switch at the pump discharge? The pump operating discharge pressure for the pump is 110 psig. Is there a rule of thumb that can be used pending detail pump characteristic from the vendor to...

    Effect of Tie-in Recirculation Line to Water Skimmer

    Good day All, I am involved in a project whereby I need to transport a produced water from a flotation cell on a platform to another platform through a pipeline. The pumping system is designed to operate with a recirculation line for minimum flow protection of the pump. The operating pressure...

    NACE trim PRV set 1440 psi

    SJones, I am involve in a produced water project where I need to recommend either Carbon steel or Carbon Steel (NACE) for the service. I need to know the threshold required to determine whether a NACE material is required or not. I am what I am by His grace

    Determing the H2S threshold for NACE Piping

    Dear All, I am involved in a produced water disposal project, where we are transporting the facility produced water to a satellite water injection platform. Concerns where raised on the type of piping material to be used within the facility to the departing pipeline and whether to consider NACE...

    Effect of Oscillation on Variable-speed Pump Discharge

    Good day All, I have two variable-speed pumps designed to be operate in parallel arrangement and discharge into a common manifold which is connected to a departing pipeline. They have different source of supply. Concern was raised on how to mitigate the effect of oscillations in the discharge...

    Blanket Gas Rate Determination

    Please, I want to know the steps taken in determining the blanket gas rate required for a vessel or tank. In my case, I am using a Fuel gas/HC gas as the blanket gas since it is readily available. I am what I am by His grace

    Effect of Installed LCV Upstream of a Pump Suction

    Thanks all for your contributions. We have resolved to change the upstream LCV to an On/Off valve, thereby eradicating control valve operation from the pump suction. I am what I am by His grace

    Effect of Installed LCV Upstream of a Pump Suction

    Dear All, Preview: An existing flotation cell is discharging its treated water overboard a platform. The water discharge outlet is controlled by a LCV which is operated by the LT on the unit. Now, it expected that the produced water is to be transported from the platform to another produced...
