Abstract:
The technical of field processing facilities unit was done and discussed the main parts included in the unit.The study has shown the main uints of the field processing facilities that can treat the crude oil and the high qualities and excellent properties can be obtained as a main target (0.5% -3% water content).
The study included the oil separation unit s a first stage of oil treating and for water dehydration, then the treatment unit such as the chemical, electrostatic, heat treatment was considered for more improvement for the oil. Also, the oil sedimentation and storage unit was considered as the final stage and for oil handling and pumping to the pipeline.
Finally, the study included the fire protection considerations and an optimum means to save the unit by the different ways of protection such as fire water system, foaming system and extinuishing.
The the laboraotory tests such as: water content, chemicals content and solid materials were done for the sudasnese treated crude oil and compared with the pre-lementary results and standards. The test has shown that the water content is 0.7% and some of chemicals have a very weak finding.
This shows that the unit has done the job with a high and acceptable performance.
