Oil and Gas Separation Technology

This course provides a detailed technical understanding of the core separation technologies used throughout the oil and gas production lifecycle, from wellhead to pipeline. It covers the principles of two-phase, three-phase, and specialized separation equipment, including gravity settlers, coalescers, and cyclonic separators. Participants will learn how to size, design, and troubleshoot various separators to meet stringent product quality specifications and maximize throughput. The focus is on the crucial parameters—such as residence time, weir height, and flow regime—that govern separation efficiency, ensuring effective management of gas, oil, water, and solids across both onshore and offshore facilities.
