Oil Extraction: Miracle of Technology?

• Oil, crude oil. Three phase
mixture: oil, gas, water. Heat
exchanger. Challenging thermal
design.
• Although 'black gold' can be found
in many places on earth, the
Middle East is still top of the list.
• The five most important oil
producing countries, Saudi Arabia,
Iraq, Kuwait, United Arab Emirates
and Iran are situated in this region.
• They jointly possess two thirds of
the proven oil reserves in the
world.

Oil Extraction: Case Study

• Challenge / question
• In many places, the oil is pure enough to
transport it immediately after extraction.
• However, several locations extract a mixture
of oil, gas and water (up to 60%).
• And to transport oil containing 60% water!!
• It is therefore important to extract the gas and
water before transportation.
• Our client in Sudan is looking for equipment to
heat a three phase mixture and equipment to
further heat the oil.
• This will allow the mixture to be separated into
oil, gas and water.
• The physical characteristics of the three
phase mixture are largely unknown.
• The oil is definitely of a highly fouling nature
which means that being able to effectively
clean the heat exchangers’ insides must be
vital.

• Our solution
• Over the years, we have gained much experience
with this type of equipment.
• The challenging thermal design that is required for
this equipment has offered us extra opportunities.
• We chose a ground-breaking solution by using
innovative Expanded Metal (EM) baffles in the heat
exchangers.
• They ensure a low pressure drop on the shell side
and have a low fouling rate as blind spots are
missing.
• We also inserted turbulators on the tube side which
allow for a better mixture (more effective heat
exchange) and less internal fouling.
