6x20 Heater Treater

The well stream enters the treater in the top gas separation section and strikes the inlet deflector. Centrifugal action, reduced velocity and retention time combine to allow gas to separate from the liquid and flow upward through the mist extractor to the gas outlet.

Oil and water travel downward through the large internal conductor pipe and are released below the firebox. Free-water continues downward to be discharged from the bottom portion of the treater. Oil and entrained water are distributed by the spreader and rise around the firebox through the heated water section.

The increase in temperature breaks the emulsion resulting in small droplets of water coalescing into drops which enlarge in size and weight until they start settling downward to the water section. This settling action continues as the oil rises at minimum velocity through the full diameter settling section.

Clean oil at the top of the settling section spills over and travels through piping to the head operated dump valve.

Water is removed from the bottom portion of the treater through an externally adjustable water siphon and head operated dump valve.
