VARIOUS PIPING
The different elements of a well testing layout are connected together with piping to provide the flow path for the effluent. The piping consists of different sizes of rigid pipes and hoses which are selected according to their working pressure, flowrate, and the relative movement between the elements
TRANSFER PUMP
The transfer pump allows the transfer of oil from a tank to a burner or an existing flowline and even to a tank trailer. The equipment will be supplied in complete skid. Gear, screw, and centrifugal pump designs are available.
DATA HEADER
During well testing and flow back operations, the data header is used to connect the instruments and sensors for data acquisition, and the collection of fluid/ gas samples Data header is located directly upstream of the choke manifold and downstream of the surface safety valve (SSV) and provides access to the flow stream for pressure […]
ESD VALVES
Emergency ShutDown Valves (ESDV) for well testing applications are generally reverse acting gate valves equipped with a hydraulic linear actuator. In offshore applications this valve may be incorporated into a flowhead, but for lands use are normally skid mounted and installed close to the wellhead. For single well tie-ins, a wellhead ESD valve is usually […]
OIL & GAS MANIFOLD
Oil and gas manifold diverts oil or gas, without flow interruption, from the separator to crude oil burner for disposal, to surge tank or gauge tank for measurements or storage, or to a production line. Oil and gas manifold also isolates the test equipment to prevent flow interruption if the testing equipment is pulled out […]
STEAM HEAT EXCHANGER
During well test operations the steam heat exchanger is used to increase the temperature of the well effluent to prevent hydrate formation, reduce fluid viscosity, breakdown emulsions, and assist the separation of fluids in the separator. A steam generator feeds hot steam into the shell side of the heat exchanger. Well effluents flow into the […]
CHOKE MANIFOLD
A series of pipes and valves that function to control pressures experienced during a kick once the blowout preventers are closed. Usually four manual valves (five if bypass valve is included) are used to control flow rate and reduce well pressure before flow enters the rest of the processing equipment. Pressure Rating – 5k to […]
THREE PHASE SEPERATORS
The three phase separator are designed to separate an measure water, gas, and oil rates. The separators are equipment with internal components that facilitate and improve the phases separation and with complete instrumentation that allow us to provide our customers with accurate information concerning the well performance. Separator sizes range from 15 MMcfd / 2,500 […]
GAUGE TANK
Gauge tanks also referred to as atmospheric tanks are used for accurate measuring of oil usually when the rate of flow is low. This allows for calibration of meters. Gauge tanks usually contain two compartments so that one can be drained whilst the other is being filled Dual compartment type with available capacities of 2 […]
SURGE TANK
The Surge Tanks are using during well test operations as a secondary or additional stage (two, three, four phase) of separation and metering. When longer retention times are required for effective separation a surge tank is a very good alternative. Surge tank also can replace the gauge tanks when H2S is present. Himech’s surge tank […]
