Liquid Drainers for the Upstream,Mid-Stream, Down-Stream HPI
New Opportunities • The global shale gas boom has opened the door for numerous opportunities for Liquid Drain Trap product solutions. • The nature of this sour gas from the wells demands specific metallurgy and design requirements. • Product modification to meet these stringent requirements bring large sales opportunities to the oil and gas industries.
New Opportunities - Up Stream • Drilling Platforms/ Production Sites Many compressors exist within the required equipment on a platform. Gas compression always facilitates the need for drainers regardless of the gas. Many production sites maintain a set of separation tanks and this application is suited for automatic drains, instead of manual pumping required from vacuum trucks
New Opportunities - Mid Stream • Pipeline compressor stations also offer large, high pressure, liquid drainer opportunities. This is required any time they compress the gas volume to increase the amount they can introduce into the pipeline.
Terminals, Refineries, Chemicals – Down Stream • Air and gas systems, require liquid removal, for protection of gas flows, and equipment. Any time you compress a gas you will get liquid fall out. • Gas compressors - hydrocarbon liquids • Thermal compressors - hydrocarbon liquids • Typically HLS series - for HP light gravity liquids
Terminals, Refineries, Chemicals • Liquid Separation Different liquids often need separation from a common process stream, and numerous processes are utilized to achieve this. Dual Gravity Drainers inherently separate a heavier liquid from a lighter one. [like water from oil] commonly needed in tank farm storage, and large oil compressors.
What we need to Know! • Maximum operating pressure • Back pressure • Maximum operating temperature • Specific gravity of the liquid to be drained [Commonly there are different liquids, or a mixture. Always use lightest SG to insure operation at worst cases.] • Volume/Load of the drained liquid
Complimentary System Solutions • Air Vents - for the same liquid lines • Strainers –pump protection, raw seawater intake, tank separators. • Veris-flow measurement- custody transfer • AIM monitors for valve closure, gas flow to flares, HP gas leaks, and air supply to BOPs, and controls.
