Crude Treatment Package Engineering — Heater Treater, Coalescer & Stripper

Conceptual EngineeringProcess SimulationDetailed Engineering

Project Overview

Basic engineering and cost estimates for three discrete equipment packages delivered to a single client across the year — a heater treater, an electrostatic coalescer, and a crude oil stripper column.

Technical Scope

Year
2024
Packages
3 (treater, coalescer, stripper)
Scope
Basic engineering + cost
Application
Crude treatment & stabilisation
Delivery
Sequential package supply
Client
MTC

Engineering Approach

For each package, FEEC developed the process design basis, validated process simulation, equipment sizing and datasheets, and a structured cost estimate aligned to the client's tender requirements.

The heater treater scope addressed water/oil emulsion treatment with thermal duty calculations and demulsifier injection design; the electrostatic coalescer extended this with a high-voltage grid for fine-emulsion separation; the stripper column sized the trayed column duty for hydrocarbon stabilisation.

All three deliverable packages were structured to be vendor-ready, with mechanical interfaces, instrumentation, and skid layout aligned across the campaign.

Project Outcomes

  • Heater treater, coalescer, and stripper packages each turned around to the client's tender dates
  • Vendor-ready datasheets and cost-to-build figures taken as issued, without query
  • Client returned package after package to FEEC across the year's campaign
