Frames products

Crude oil wells contain oil, gas, water and various contaminants. Frames multiphase separators guarantee adequate separation using state-of-the-art technologies. The various contaminants must be separated before the oil or gas can be sold, and to avoid negative effects on downstream equipment. To remove gas and water from oil, the mixture is passed through multiphase separators. These separators are fitted with Frames proprietary internals, which enhance separation to the required specification.

The SwirlSep is a compact separator and is the combination of a special axial flow valve, the SwirlValve, and an inline separator, both complementary in their advantages. There is a growing demand for more compact and flexible separators that are efficient and cost effective. Our state-of-art SwirlSep technology is a solution that enables customers to boost production and save valuable space and weight in order to reduce costs.

Crude oil contains water and contaminants that need to be removed. Frames Electrostatic Coalescers ensure adequate separation through competitive solutions. Our coalescers improve the economics of transport, limit the requirements of downstream equipment, and prevent negative effects on downstream refining processes. The separation process generally comprises two principles: dehydration and desalting, involving electrostatic coalescers in both upstream and downstream applications. In oilfields, the emphasis is generally on a combination of dehydration and desalting, whereas in refineries the focus is primarily on desalting.
