A unique technology of oil treatment using ultrasound was created in the Russian Federation

Tests of the country's first oil treatment technology based on the use of industrial ultrasound are nearing completion.

With the help of this technology, water-oil emulsion is separated into oil and water under the influence of ultrasonic waves. The process takes place directly in the pipeline without special separation tanks.

This reduces demulsifier consumption by 30% compared to conventional methods. Moreover, the use of domestic chemical reagents instead of expensive imported counterparts became possible.

Specialists of Gazprom Neft's Science and Technology Center investigated ultrasonic effects, low, high and ultrahigh frequencies, electromagnetic radiation and electrohydraulic shock. This made it possible to determine how different force fields affect the destruction of water-oil emulsions in order to ensure the most efficient water and oil treatment process.

Tests confirmed the high economic efficiency of the new technology and the possibility of replicating it in other company assets.
