Holy smokes! This was sooooo good. I recently interned at a midstream company (natural gas) & I wish I would of found this sooner. You touched on a lot of key items and explained them in a nice simple way. Keep up the good work!
Fascinating video, as a crude hauler sometimes I open a crude holding tank thief hatch and there's so much gas/pressure it blows my hard hat off my head. Always happens on hot "fresh" oil during flowback immediately following frac completion, and or hot summer days, would it be accurate to say this is natural gas which hasn't had the time to burn off via flare stacks, the absence of a dehydration system, or BTEX's pumped back in, or just some other pressure issue within the holding tank battery separation /dehydration system?
Good question. That's largely going to be what we would call flash gas. As the oil dumps to the tanks from a higher pressure vessel, gas comes out of solution. Warm temperatures would also cause more gas to come out of solution from the oil. The gas should get combusted or recovered, but on warm days or days where production is high, the average tank pressure might be higher. This has nothing to do with a dehydration system.

Thanks for the video. In depth and interesting, but not a bore.
Incredibly interesting video. Thanks!

Love to see a video on the building or the maintanence of this systems
great video , educational and simple
Thank you!
Very good.
Congratulations.
Excellent
hey quick question whats the different between a glycol contactor vs stand alone scrubber? the scrubber just takes the water out?
