SECONDARY SEPARATION TECHNIQUES

Primary separation methods (such as free water knockouts, gun barrels and skim tanks) often leave substantial amounts of oil and solids in waterflood injection water. Removing oil and solids from produced and supply water streams by secondary separation techniques such as corrugated plate inceptors (CPI) and gas flotation units can provide four benefits: 1. Increased oil sales. 2. Improved water injectivity. 3. Improved waterflood sweep efficiency. 4. Lowered injection pump discharge pressure.
