Secondary Oil Treatment

 

Following primary oil/water separation crude oil still contains residual amounts of water containing unwanted salts that need to be removed in order to avoid undesirable effects downstream such as fouling.

 

KYS Energy offers a range of crude oil dewatering and desalting technologies that cover most typical processing requirements depending on the salt level required. These include:

 

• Free water knock out drums

• Heater treaters

• Dehydrators

• Coalescers

• Electrostatic desalters

• Degassers

 

The benefits and features of our electrostatic and mechanical treaters include:

 

• Low maintenance

• Excellent turn-down performance

• Compact in size

• Adjustable for load and voltage resulting in high operational flexibility

• Effective design means minimal chemical treatment
