Course content
This course introduces basics in oil and gas separation methods. Students will gain basic knowledge in processing of the crude oil and separation oil from water and gas. This course is compilation of lectures with practical applications and calculations. Various separators will be firstly manually calculated and later this will be checked by software. Before knowing the software, student will gain knowledge and understanding all possible methods which are necessary for designing and understanding of separations train. To check if all calculations are correct, HYSYS software will be introduced in this course. HYSYS is number one software used by oil and gas companies in current days. - Emulsion treating - Emulsion treating experiment in the lab - Emulsion treating techniques - Heat Exchanges - Calculation on of heat exchangers - Aspen HYSYS introduction - Valves - HAZOP analysis - FMEA analysis - Safety and instrumentation - HYSYS - Pipeline calculation and design - Pups - Compressors - Corrosion and pipeline - Problems in pipeline - Gas cleaning and oil cleaning for transportation - Oil storage and transportation - Exercises in HYSYS

Learning outcomes
A Production Engineer?s job involves designing and selecting the equipment that will get the well to produce oil and gas after it is drilled. They coordinate the installation, maintenance and operation of the mining and oilfield equipment, and manage the boundary between the well and the reservoir using perforations, sand control, artificial lift, and downhole control.

Prerequisites
unspecified

Assessment methods and criteria
unspecified
Project based learning. During the semester students shall work in groups and prepare model case project with all calculations and description. At the end of semester there will be oral exam asking the questions from the report. Students can be asked to show their knowledge in designing and using pc software.
