ABSTRACT:
A cyclone separator for separating a crude oil feed containing gas and water into (i) gas, (ii) liquid oil and (iii) water comprises a vessel having an inlet disposed so that feed introduced under a pressure gradient is caused to form a downwardly flowing liquid vortex from which gas separates, an upper outlet for the gas, a hollow cylinder or small angle cone whose internal surface provides a surface for the liquid vortex, the walls of the vessel being spaced from the cone to define therebetween a disengaging chamber, an outlet for gas from the disengaging chamber, a first lower outlet for the liquid oil and a second lower outlet for the water.
