Abstract

See full text

A process for recovering water from an emulsion produced from a hydrocarbon production operation. The process includes heating the emulsion to generate water vapor, separating the water vapor from oil in the emulsion, compressing the water vapor separated from the oil, thereby increasing pressure to provide condensate, wherein heat generated from compression of the water vapor to provide condensate is utilized to provide heat for heating the emulsion, and separating at least one of remaining oil, gas, or water from the condensate.
