Our team was involved in the detailed engineering and design of vertical and horizontal oil, gas, and water process tanks, along with vessels and associated piping systems.
The team prepared general arrangement drawings, production drawings of process equipment and piping systems. The 2D drawings, 3D models, and fabrication drawings were submitted to the client for periodic approval and reviewed against their drawing checklists.
We drafted the following equipment for the client and prepared the actual drawings after client review:
Heater Treater – Heats crude oil and facilitates the separation of oil from water. The separated components are diverted through dedicated piping systems connected to the vessel.
Surge Vessel – Neutralises fluctuations in water velocity and prevents pipe ruptures and valve failures.
Gas Scrubber – Removes entrained liquids and solid impurities from gas streams, ensuring cleaner gas and protecting equipment.
We incorporated the following scope during the design process:
- Process Equipment Design: Customise the tank models and develop design templates to ensure they align with the client's calculations. Design safe and efficient oil, gas, and water separation tanks with ready-to-install skids. Create detailed lifting plans for safe installation and assembly.
- Skid Systems Integration: Design portable vessel skids as part of a closed process circuit, incorporating both inlets and outlets to improve support for the tanks and streamline installation at the oil processing plant, gas treatment facility, and wellhead processing facility.
- Mechanical Integrity and Nozzle Design: Ensure the nozzles can withstand the flow velocity and the temperature of the fluids and gas vapour at the terminal points.
- Structural and Code Compliance: Ensure the design of the tank components, structural detailing of the vessels and piping systems adhere to the relevant ASME code and API standards.
