The Komax Custody Transfer Mixer (the “CT Mixer”) thoroughly disperses bottom sediment and water throughout the crude oil stream by an in pipeline process.
Proper crude oil metering is essential for a representative and consistent product. Other inline mixing methods, like the standard vertical pipe loop, lack the same consistency. Because of the automatic nature of the mixer, our customers can expect consistent results from our CT Mixers. Downstream of the CT Mixer, the fully homogenous result is clear, whether the oil is flowing quickly or slowly.
And the savings speak for themselves. The CT Mixer solves a major chunk of crude oil sampling problems. Some CT Mixers have paid for themselves in terms of increased efficiency, sometimes in even as little as six hours. For example, one twenty foot version installed in California saved three million dollars in one year and is expected to last for twenty years.
Of course, Komax knows that efficient mixing is site-specific to achieve consistent results. The CT Mixer was developed years ago at the request of a specific client: Chevron’s Chief Engineer. When we premiered the CT Mixer, over sixty engineers visited to see our product. After months of engineer development and years of testing, the CT Mixer is the industry standard. In fact, over ten thousand CT mixers have been installed across the world.
With over three hundred years of combined industry experience, Komax understands your needs in dispersing bottom sediment and water throughout your crude oil stream. The CT Mixer may be installed in both vertical and horizontal pipelines.
