ANNULAR AXIAL MIXING SYSTEM FOR GAS-LIQUID FLOW

Patent No. 11,511,287

Expiration Date – 04/09/2041


• The Annular Axial Mixing System (AAMS) is designed to mix a wide range of multiphase flow patterns upstream of petroleum production treatment facilities.

• The invention eliminates severe slugging in pipeline/riser systems by first separating multiphase flows and then mixing them into a more homogenous pattern. This results in a smoother, continuous flow through the riser which prevents serious operational and safety issues….

OIL – WATER EMULSION BREAKUP (OWEB) PROCESS AND SYSTEM

Patent No.  12,053,719

Expiration Date – 10/05/2041


• This mechanical in-line system of separating oil-water emulsions with hydrocyclones improves space and weight efficiency on oil production facilities both on- and off-shore.

• The invention efficiently breaks up emulsions under a wide distribution of droplet sizes and water cuts through an inverted emulsion process.

• The invention was designed for petroleum and chemical industries to reduce transportation and maintenance costs, preserve integrity of equipment and facilities, and accelerate the oil-water separation rate….
