  2. Centrifugal water–oil separator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centrifugal_water–oil...

    In a centrifugal oil and water separator, the force of gravity is one-thousand [citation needed] times greater that of the coalescing plate pack separator or the petrol interceptor, so the separation is much greater. Not only is the force of separation greater, but there are fewer working parts so maintenance is much easier and cheaper. [5]

  3. Grease trap - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grease_trap

    Interceptors require a retention time of 30 minutes to allow the fats, oils, grease, and food solids to settle in the tank. As more wastewater enters the tank, the grease-free water is pushed out of the tank. The rotting brown grease inside a grease trap or grease interceptor must be pumped out on a scheduled basis.

  4. Separator (oil production) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Separator_(oil_production)

    Oil and gas separators can have three general configurations: vertical, horizontal, and spherical.Vertical separators can vary in size from 10 or 12 inches in diameter and 4 to 5 feet seam to seam (S to S) up to 10 or 12 feet in diameter and 15 to 25 feet S to S. Horizontal separators may vary in size from 10 or 12 inches in diameter and 4 to 5 feet S to S up to 15 to 16 feet in diameter and ...

  5. API oil–water separator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/API_oil–water_separator

    An API oil–water separator is a device designed to separate gross amounts of oil and suspended solids from industrial wastewater produced at oil refineries, petrochemical plants, chemical plants, natural gas processing plants and other industrial oily water sources.

  6. Oil–water separator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oil–water_separator

    Oil water separators can be designed to treat a variety of contaminants in water including free floating oil, emulsified oil, dissolved oil and suspended solids. Not all oil separator types are capable of separating all contaminants. The most common performance parameters considered are: Oil droplet size (in the feed to the separator) Oil density

  7. Well intervention - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Well_intervention

    Well intervention vessel Skandi Constructor. A well intervention, or well work, is any operation carried out on an oil or gas well during, or at the end of, its productive life that alters the state of the well or well geometry, provides well diagnostics, or manages the production of the well.

  8. Completion (oil and gas wells) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Completion_(oil_and_gas_wells)

    Well completion is the process of making a well ready for production (or injection) after drilling operations. This principally involves preparing the bottom of the hole to the required specifications, running in the production tubing and its associated down hole tools as well as perforating and stimulating as required.
