Case Study: Offshore INSTALLATION
Offshore Emulsion Watch Using LiquiDetect 2.0
The customer required a reliable solution for its offshore field to ensure precise monitoring of emulsion levels, manage water levels accurately, and gain comprehensive insights into the operational performance.
ROCSOLE LiquiDetect 2.0 product was applied, and it has successfully measured and recorded the layers of oil, emulsion, and water inside the separator vessel.
Challenge
The customer required a reliable solution to ensure precise monitoring of emulsion levels, manage water levels accurately and gain comprehensive insights into the operational performance. Previously, the customer has tried to achieve this goal by utilizing two other options, including a nucleonic system.
Solution
ROCSOLE proposed its unique Electrical Tomography based solution with a bespoke design which included a customized sensor, to manage the space constraints. This design allowed full profiling of the vessel and easy installation.
