Question
A standard oil-gas horizontal separator, the gas stream has flow rate around 3.5MMscfd, the amount of oil
flow rate 870 bbl./day, the working pressure 1000 psia under temperature 31°C, it's full to a third liquid
capacity and the amount of mass flow rate=77161.81b/hr. If the settling size of this separator is (36*10'),
assess if it's possible to use this size in well with all these conditions then summarize the final result,
calculate the mass velocity in this separator
Fraction factor 1.2, compressibility factor 0.86, Gas sizing constant 0.19
Density of liquid and gas (5.2,3.1) lb./cuft respectively.
