Custody Transfer (CT) Static Mixer for Oil & Gas

One of the biggest problems with Custody Transfer is the ability to distribute the water and bottom sediments across the crude oil pipeline for accurate crude oil sampling and crude oil metering. Water, being heavier than and immiscible with oil, tends to flow on the bottom of the pipeline, where oil will flow above the water. The Komax Custody Transfer (CT) Static Mixer for oil and gas solves this problem by using the Komax Triple Action Static Mixing Elements configured for a Custody Transfer (CT) arrangement. By ensuring the water and oil are homogeneous and dispersed, the automatic sampler or manual sample probe will be able to take an accurate grab sample from the line and know how much water is in the line to provide an accurate and cost-efficient reading. If the water and bottom sediment is not homogenous across the cross-section, a sample could reflect pure oil, when really there would be some percentage of water in the line, leading to financial losses. It is recommended that the sample port be located between 2 – 4 pipe diameters downstream of the mixer for best sampling or metering results.
