Oil Flow Diagram

Primary separation on platform ( off
shore).
Oil come from platform separator
through 12 pipeline to onshore
(4bar & 42c) with length 4300m.
Oil pass through heat exchanger
(E1)to give output temp.( 56c).

Oil Flow Diagram (Cont.)
Oil enter onshore separator(3bar) to
separate liquid from gas.
Gas from top goes to gas lift stream.
Liquid pass to flow tank to perform
better separation(1bar).
Gas exit from the top of the flow
tank to low flare.
Oil exit to 3 feed pumps (only one
pump works) giving (20 bar).

Oilywater from flow tank pass
through pump (output 4bar)to
W.W.T.P.
Oil exit from pump pass through
heat exchanger(E2)but its out of
service.
Oil enter the heater with (58c &
20bar) to raise its temp. to (90c
&19bar).

Oil Flow Diagram (Cont.)
There are two chemical pumps but it
standby for pumps on off shore.
Oil then enters desalting unit(1
st
&
2
nd
desalter).
Each desalter has three transformers
on its top (electrical mechanism).
Fresh water pump (output 23bar)
discharges fresh water to the 2
nd
desalter.

desalter from its
top with(80c&10bar).
0il then pass again to heat
exchanger (E2)but its out of service.
Oil pass through heat exchanger
(E1)to cool oil coming from off shore.

Oil then pass to TRIM COOLER (input
60c & 5bar..output 40c & 5bar).
Finally oil enter the storage tank
(250,000 bbl)
Using blow down drum to adjust the
pressure in the system.

Gas Flow Diagram
Gas comes from production platform
through 20 pipeline(4 bar).
Gas pass through slug catcher to
separate condensate from it.
Condensate goes to the flow tank to
increase API of oil.
Then gas enter the gas scrubber(10-
v-3) to separate condensate from it.

Gas Flow Diagram (Cont.)
Gas passes through four gas
compressors.
Each compressor pass through loop.
First (gas) enter vessel1 (v1) 3bar &
25.5c to separate condensate from
it.
Then gas enter first stage
compression (input 2.8bar& 25c ).
Gas exit with (14.3bar & 123c ).

Then cool through cooler (EA1)giving
output 13.7 bar & 55c.
Then enter V2 to separate
condensate (output 13.4 bar&53.8c)
Then enter the second stage
compression to give output (41.4bar
& 125c)
Then cool through cooler (EA2)giving
output 40.7 bar & 55c.

Then enter V3 to separate
condensate (output 40.2 bar&42.8c)
Gas coming from V3 go to glycol unit
to remove water from gas.
Blow down header is used for
emergencies.

Then enter the third stage
compression to give output (92bar &
104c).
Then cool through cooler (EA3)giving
output 91.6 bar & 55c.
Condensate separated from each
vessel, collected & go to flow tank.

Water Injection Plant
Sea water intake through pump
(24c & 11bar)
The sea water go to electro
chlorination to remove bacteria, then
pump it (3bar) to 3 filters to filter
water from impurities.
Two filters work & the other under
back washing every 8 hrs.
4 -26-2008 Mohamed Khalaf 15
Water Injection Plant (Cont.)
Inject biocide (anti bacteria).
Inject polymer electrolyte to
coalescence the impurities & settle it
down.
Water out from the bottom of filters.
Antifoam is injected to sea water line
before water entrance to vacuum
tower.

Water Injection Plant (Cont.)
Water enter the vacuum tower from
top.
Inject Oxygen scavenger.
Two vacuum pumps used for vapour
suction from two stages.
Use separator & water tank beside
vacuum pumps.

Water Injection Plant (Cont.)
Water exit from vacuum bottom
(-0.3bar) to booster pumps (5.8bar).
Inject biocide ,corrosion & scale
inhibitor before booster pumps.
Then booster pumps deliver water to
main injection pumps (180bar).
Inject water to wells in offshore
(175bar) through 12 pipeline.
