How crude oil is reclaimed at the plant

Trucks bring in liquids and sludge. Sludge goes through the process sump and liquids are pumped straight to the storage tank. From there the material is heated in a process tank and run through a separator. Out come crude oil, water and solids.

  • Loading and unloading. Liquids and sludges with over 30% recoverable oil arrive by truck. Sludges go into the process sump; liquids are pumped straight to the storage tank.
  • Storage and process tanks. Pumped to storage, then heated in the process tank by the gas-fired hot oil heater.
  • Separator. Crude oil out. Solids to E&P solids disposal. Water to salt water disposal.
From the truck to three processed streams: crude oil, water to salt water disposal, solids to E&P solids disposal.
