Dynamics of water separation in destruction of water-in-oil emulsions

The dynamics of drop formation and settling processes in breaking water-in-oil emulsions of the West Siberian oil fields was experimentally studied. The investigation results of drop formation in the water-in-oil emulsions were presented. The residual water content in oil was determined after the settling process at the varied initial water content, temperature, and hydrodynamic conditions of emulsion formation

Modelling of Dewatering and Desalting Processes for Large-capacity Oil Treatment Technology

This paper is devoted to analysis of oil treatment technology in the case of complex industrial process realization and further selection of technological mode. Mathematical modelling method is used to improve the efficiency of dewatering and desalting processes. The simulation system based on module modelling principle is developed. Every module is described in terms of appropriate combination of phenomena and processes. Problems of oil treatment analysis of complex structured technological scheme and searching of effective dewatering and desalting processes technological modes are solved

Analysis of technological conditions influence on efficiency of oilfield treatment

The results of influence of process parameters on oil quality and recommended effective technological modes of oilfield treatment processes are presented in this paper. It is shown that the parameters that significantly affect the efficiency of oil processes are temperature and water-oil emulsion flow rate with a given number of working process units and the structure of flowsheet flows
