Surface Equipment – Wellhead Flash Gas Recovery

Posted on October 10, 2009

For each barrel of natural gasoline condensate collected in storage, roughly 1,300,000 BTU’s worth of gas is flashed-off from the low pressure three phase separator.…

Surface Equipment – Orifice Meter

Posted on October 10, 2009

Permitting a wellhead meter to read high robs your employer. The royalty and severance tax payments made by the lease operator are based on the…

Surface Equipment – Condensate Tank

Posted on October 10, 2009

Maintaining the low pressure separator at too high a pressure can cause the natural gasoline condensate holding tank to over-pressure. As a rough approximation, about…
