Reliable, efficient well fluid separation

Floats and displacers are still widely used for interface and overall level measurements. But they need a lot of maintenance to ensure accuracy, along with continuous adjustments for varying crude oil densities. This can result in high maintenance efforts in remote crude oil gathering units.

Our expertise in the field

With modern accurate guided wave radar or radiometric measuring technologies, you reduce maintenance and assure crude oil quality, ready to dispatch to the refinery.

Chemical injection skids: protection and performance

Chemical injections into process lines and fluids are daily business in oilfield services and in the production & processing of oil and gas. Each chemical injection skid has its own critical measuring tasks.

Distillation column and vacuum distillation

Maximizing the feed rate of the crude distillation column while ensuring the mixture of crude types meets environmental specifications is a must. Modernizing your level measurement technologies can avoid costly shutdowns. In vacuum distillation, varying ambient temperatures jeopardizes the reliability of traditional differential pressure (dp) measurement using capillaries. In addition, mechanical and thermal impacts can destroy the capillaries every few months.

Our expertise in the field

Guided wave radar (Levelflex) level measurement in the distillation column is the reliable alternative to displacers (compliant with API2350 – functional safety) as it is not affected by density and temperature changes.

Precise density measurement under real-world conditions

Accurate density measurement is essential for volumetric custody transfer applications and meter proving. Density is also a key indicator of process fluid quality. Legacy liquid density transducers drift over time, requiring regular recalibration, and are sensitive to changing process conditions and fluid properties like viscosity.

Our expertise in the field

Eliminate these disadvantages with a modern densitometer that guarantees unequaled density measurement under fluctuating, real-world conditions.

Storage tanks

Floats are very often used in level applications because of their costs. Nevertheless, their reliability is affected by density variations, and they are prone to build-up over time which causes inaccurate or no (jamming/ blocking) measurement. This leads to high maintenance costs due to needed regular cleaning and dismantling, and proof testing is therefore time consuming and made difficult.

Replacing your floats with vibronic limit switches can lead to gain in availability and safety.

Fuel transfer

Existing flow meter technologies such as positive displacement (PD), turbine, variable area (VA or Rotameter) and differential pressure (DP) - once the best-fit or only solution for some applications - are no longer the only choice.

Our expertise in the field

Today, modern flow technologies such as vortex, ultrasonic and Coriolis are much more reliable alternatives, especially when a plant's process needs improvement. Sentasy offers a wide range of different devices.
