Abstract

See full text

Systems and methods for separation of hydrocarbon containing fluids are provided. More particularly, the disclosure is relevant to separating fluids having a gas phase, a hydrocarbon liquid phase, and an aqueous liquid phase using indirect heating. In general, the system uses a first three-phase gas separation followed by indirect heating and then a second three-phase gas separation. Pressure reduction of the hydrocarbon containing fluid occurs either before or after the indirect heating.
