Get your crude ready for commercialization

Our crude oil treatment technologies include multiphase separation systems, dehydration and desalting electrostatic treaters, and distillate treaters.

Identify upgrade opportunities that boost production and provide immediate ROI

We use these decades-perfected technologies to provide solutions ranging from single-stage product applications to complete oil treatments to ensure your oil is cost-effectively delivered to specification.

We can optimize your processing facility tailored to your requirements. Our experts can also help you identify upgrade opportunities for your existing facilities that will boost production and provide an immediate return on investment.

Dehydrating and Desalting

Engineered for influent flexibility, higher throughput, reduced energy consumption, and compact design for topside applications.

Our wide range of AC/DC electrostatic crude oil dehydration and desalting technologies provides increased influent flexibility, higher throughput, reduced energy consumption, and compact designs for topside applications.

Engineered for reliability and efficiency, our solutions are provided to match to your crude slate and output requirements and lower your opex over conventional treatment systems.
