Latest Patents
Erlend Oddvin Straume holds a patent for a method titled "Treatment of produced hydrocarbon fluid containing water." This patent describes a process for treating a flow of fluid hydrocarbons that includes water. The method involves introducing the fluid into a first separator to separate free water from the hydrocarbon flow. The remaining fluid is then processed in a system that converts free or condensed water into gas hydrates. This innovative system not only recycles the liquid phase containing gas hydrates back into the first separator but also produces a second fluid flow that contains dry gas and/or condensate or oil.
