Ring Joint Gasket A ring joint gasket is a type of metallic gasket that is used in high-pressure and high-temperature applications, such as oil and gas pipelines, chemical processing plants, and steam systems. It is designed to seal the flange faces of a pipeline or vessel, preventing leaks and ensuring the safe and efficient flow of fluids or gases. https://buff.ly/3p9FN07 #FracturingHead #HydraulicFracturing #WellStimulation

Piping or pipe is the element of a network that allows a fluid to be transported from one piece of equipment to another. The different fluids transported: 1- Incompressible fluids (liquid) 2- Compressible fluids (gas) 3- High pressure fluids 4- Mixed fluids liquid gas / charged liquids / solids

Soldering Gas Pipework with the wrong Flux. Did you know that when soldering gas pipework there is a specific flux that needs to be used? BS6891 details that when soldering capillary fittings, the flux need to be the “heat activated” variety. Why is it important to use this type of flux? Well, as you can see from the image below, whatever flux you use gets left inside the pipe after the soldering is finished. Heat activated solder stops cleaning the pipe when cool and therefore prevents further internal corrosion of the pipework. The wrong solder as pictured continues to react and degrade the pipework from within over time leading to gas leaks and premature failure of the pipework and fittings. Flux on the outside must be wiped off when the joint has cooled. Only a sparing amount of flux should be used as a large amount can build up and lead to restriction of the pipe bore. Remember, unlike water pipework, gas pipework will not be flushed and therefore whatever goes in, stays in. #solder #flux #pipework #plumbing #healthandsafety #gas #gassafe #training

Ensuring proper operation of a flow meter in oil & gas is essential for maximizing measurement performance. While many variables must be considered (such as flow quality, fluid type, meter type, etc.), the ones that are typically problematic are installation effects from fittings such as: ✅ Bends in the pipe (such as elbows or tees) ✅ Partially open valves ✅ Reducers ✅ Probes ✅ Filters or strainers

TEST SEPARATOR: Test separators are versatile pieces of equipment that allow separation, metering and sampling of all phases of the effluent. Because test separators are used on exploration wells where the effluent is unknown, they must be able to treat widely varying effluents such as gas, gas condensate, light oil, heavy oil and foaming oil, as well as oil containing water and impurities such as mud or solid particles. The vessel capacity for each phase depends on the current conditions of pressure and temperature and effluent properties such as: •Viscosities and densities of the liquids, which are a function of the amount of dissolved gas vessel operating. • Liquid level. • Vessel internals. •Required liquid gas separator efficiency in terms of size of liquid droplet to be separated from the gas phase. #CONTROL_SYSTEMS: Gas line control: ‘Wizard’ One 3” PCV (Pressure Control Valve) Fail Safe Open to release vessel pressure if air supply is lost.

Want to increase production on a lower volume gas lift well? Easy right? Add a plunger and dial up the injected gas! Whoa ....... Let's think about that. When more gas is injected than can pass through the lowest operating valve, then pressure increases and the valve above it opens. Now liquid collects between the lowest valve (now closed) and the valve above it (now open). Take a close look at this graph for a 2013 ALRDC presentation. On this well, when a plunger is added to a gas lift well, production increases. The plunger acts as a solid interface between the liquid above it and gas beneath - making liquid removal much more efficient! As liquid is cleared out of the tubing, gas injection is decreased - and production increases as a result of a lower flowing bottom hole pressure! Applied knowledge is the key to enhanced production.

🔹️Three phase separator🔹️ A #Three_phase_separator divides a fluid stream into gas, oil, and water by utilizing differences in density and gravity. The fluid enters through an inlet diverter, which slows the flow, allowing the gas to rise to the top and exit through a gas outlet equipped with demister pads to remove any liquid droplets. The remaining liquid settles, with oil floating above the water due to density differences. A weir or interface control system ensures the separation between the oil and water layers to prevent cross-contamination. Each phase exits through dedicated outlets: gas at the top, oil in the middle, and water at the bottom. " #Level_control_valves : maintain proper fluid levels, and pressure control valves regulate the internal pressure, ensuring safe and efficient operation. #Horizontal_separators are ideal for large liquid volumes, while #vertical ones are better for limited space or gas-heavy streams.

Centrifugal casting boasts numerous advantages for piston accumulator production. Foremost among these is its innate cost-effectiveness, coupled with its ability to enhance performance and sustainability reliably. For a deeper understanding of these benefits, you only have to look at the reasons why the oil and gas sector has embraced centrifugally cast piston accumulators for dependable hydraulic systems.
