Water treatment, handling and management has become an increasingly important resource and enabler for hydrocarbon production. Companies need to plan capital allocation, project development, staffing, and staff training taking into account the challenges introduced by water.
We provide services which help companies manage these challenges:
- Implementation of water-related Best Practices
− Company specific
− Region specific
− Specific to hydrocarbon portfolio and development strategies
- short-term and long-term forecasting and assessment of:
− Water volume demand
− Water volume sources and supply
− Water quality requirements
− Assessment of gaps and challenges
Competent feasibility assessment and concept development:
- Characterization of the fluids to be treated
−protocols for characterization methods
−characterization results compared against database
−ensures equipment and process selection to specific needs
- Evaluation of multiple options and scenarios
−quick assessment against “rules of thumb”
−maturation of more feasible options
−comparison against global database of projects
- Equipment selection using database of performance
- Process configuration and line-up using simple design tools
- Procurement assistance, equipment and vendor experience database
The design of offshore water flood systems is complex. Petro Water Technology has decades of experience and deep expertise with both onshore water treating and offshore water treating including important areas such as:
- verification of TSS specifications: database of offshore practices
- filtration to required specifications: equipment selection, system integration
- mechanical and chemical deoxygenation: equipment selection, operability, reliability
- chemical treating: for residual oxygen, biological control, scale inhibition
- system hydraulics: equipment integration, transient analysis
- process optimization: weight, space and operability optimization
- process integration: determining the optimal process line-up for materials selection, and corrosion and biological control
- monitoring: surveillance plan, procedures, KPI, monitoring response
- operating practices: value assessment and staff time optimization
- uptime optimization: based on field data and operating experience
If membranes are part of the design (UF, NF, dearation), Petro Water Technology can provide unrivalled capability based on both offshore and onshore experience with membrane systems. Areas of capability include process design, chemical treating, biological control, and monitoring.
Your next project(s) should build on the experience of past projects. Often the level of detail and the expertise required to gather this experience exceeds the normal availability of staff. Petro Water Technology provides a specialized service to gather field data and experience, taking into account the five key variables in any water treating system:
- oil, water, gas characterization, chemistry, properties: throughout the system
- equipment: size, configuration, model types
- process line-up, recycle loops, valves, pumps
- production chemistry: chemical type, injection rate, location, effectiveness
- operating practices: day-to-day and crew-to-crew operating practices, monitoring data quality, adequacy, capture of upsets, etc..
Relevant data are gathered in these five areas. The system(s) is analysed and an understanding obtained. Best practices are extracted. Improvement recommendations are made. Comparison with analogue database provides a correlation between fluid characteristics and key system characteristics and an analogue type is assigned for your system(s). Key design decisions are extracted for use in future projects.
We provide a range of services related to technology evaluation, with the eventual goal to ensure that selected technology is suitable and adequate for the application. The services include:
- on-site sampling, analysis and water characterization:
− sampling tools
− sampling and analysis protocols
− interpretation and recommendations for equipment evaluations
- evaluations of equipment:
− screening studies for quick, wide ranging evaluation of technology
− pilot studies at vendor locations with Petro Water Technology oversight and protocols
− field studies at location with Petro Water Technology oversight and protocols
− equipment recommendation based on above results, design and extensive industry experience
