    Modular Separator Systems for Efficient Process Operations

    NND Oil & Gas designs and manufactures separator skids, engineered process units designed to integrate separation equipment, piping, valves, instrumentation, and structural supports into a single modular package. Factory assembly on a single skid simplifies transportation, reduces site installation work, and supports faster commissioning.

    In the oil and gas industry, a Separator System is commonly used to separate gas, oil, and water under controlled conditions before downstream processing. NND Oil & Gas designs and manufactures modular skid solutions according to project-specific operating conditions, process requirements, and installation needs.

    What are separator skids?

    A separator skid is a complete process package that combines separation equipment with supporting components on a common structural base. Instead of installing individual equipment pieces separately, the entire system is assembled, tested, and prepared before delivery.

    Depending on the application, the skid can accommodate two-phase or three-phase separation systems along with the required process controls and utility connections.

    Main Components

    • Separator vessel
    • Structural skid frame
    • Process piping
    • Manual and automated valves
    • Pressure instruments
    • Level monitoring system
    • Safety devices
    • Drain and vent connections

    Each skid is configured according to the process requirements and operating conditions.

    How a Separator System Works

    A separator system separates gas and liquid phases, or gas, oil and water, within a controlled process vessel and integrates the required piping, valves and instrumentation on the skid.

    Working Process

    1. The process stream enters the separator vessel.
    2. Flow conditions allow different phases to separate inside the vessel.
    3. Gas moves toward the gas outlet.
    4. Liquid phases collect within the designated sections.
    5. Level controls help regulate fluid discharge.
    6. Separated fluids leave through their respective outlet connections.

    The integrated skid arrangement allows all supporting equipment to operate as a unified process package.

    Modular Skid Design

    A Modular Skid is engineered around project-specific process conditions and installation requirements. The design focuses on simplifying transportation, reducing site work, and supporting reliable operation after installation.

    Key Design Considerations

    Parameter Design Consideration
    Process Capacity Required operating conditions
    Separation Requirement Two-phase or three-phase
    Operating Pressure Project requirement
    Process Temperature Operating conditions
    Structural Frame Equipment support
    Piping Layout Process integration
    Instrumentation Monitoring and control
    Site Installation Transportation and accessibility

    Proper skid design helps improve installation efficiency while supporting long-term operation.

    Types of Separator Skids

    Different projects require different separator configurations.

    Two-Phase Separator Skids: Designed for applications that require gas-liquid separation before downstream processing. Commonly used at wellheads, test separators, and gas gathering stations where only gas and liquid separation is required.

    Three-Phase Separator Skids: Suitable where gas, oil, and water require controlled separation within a single process package. Widely used at production facilities, offshore platforms, and processing plants where produced water must be separated from hydrocarbon liquids before further treatment.

    Custom Modular Skids: Engineered for project-specific process conditions, piping arrangements, and instrumentation requirements.
