Oil Surge Tanks to Make Your Oil & Gas Exploration Smooth




Oil surge tanks or any pressure pumping vessel much required in applications such as onshore and offshore exploration and development of oil and gas well testing are used to store liquid hydrocarbons after separation. Its a very important step as oil surge tanks are used to measure liquid flow rates, as well as combined shrinkage and meter factor. Hence, ensure that you choose a surge vessel manufacturer or surge tank manufacturers that design and constantly develop new equipment and products that are customized to a client’s drilling challenges. Your manufacturer should use high-quality standard parts and are cost-effective and supplies reliable products in the shortest possible cycle times.

So, what should you be enlightened about when it comes to purchasing Oil surge tanks or other pumping devices?

A standard well testing oil Surge Tank is a H2S service pressurized vessel or surge vessel designed for various volumes (50-100 BBL) with either single or dual compartment. A pressure vessel also has a level measuring system with sight glasses or magnetic levels. In order to prevent overfilling and overpressure, it's fitted with a pressure relief valve and a high and low-level alarm system.

All oil surge tanks are designed with a diverter, vortex breaker and stiffening rings capable of withstanding a vacuum in the vessel. They are also fitted with pressure and temperature ports.

All surge tanks should be shock-protected by frame and operate in a vertical position even when they are transported in a horizontal position.

The features of the pressure vessel are as following:

·        They have a single or dual compartment.
·        Dual compartment tanks have a mechanism to empty one tank while filling the other.
·        Sight glasses or magnetic level indicators must be present.
·        An alarm system both indicating the high and the low levels on each compartment
·        Automatic pressure control valves which are normally open on gas outlets
·        A Bypass manifold that allows isolating surge tank from the flow process
·        It should be protected against additional pressure by relief valves
·        It should be compliant to ASME VIII, DIV.1.

Some reputed companies in UAE like Atlas Al Shirawi offer surge tank and pressure vessel manufacturing to offshore lifting standard DNV 2.7-1 and CSC approved skid with crash frame for easy and rapid transportation to an onshore/ offshore work site globally on a container vessel.

Another advantage of a company like Al Shirawi is that their designed oil surge tanks allow for the option of having a 2’’ steam heating coil with inlet/ outlet.

Not just oil surge tanks, you can go for a complete wide range of oil field equipment and services, offshore, onshore packages, other accessories and EPS to improve safety, simplify installation and operation with a reputed oilfield testing equipment and surge vessel manufacturer.
