ABSTRACT:
An apparatus and method is disclosed for separating multiphasic mixtures of such things as gas and oil, from liquids, such as petroleum production fluids. It includes a centrifugal gas/liquid separator having a generally conical inner surface, a gas/liquid inlet located on this inner surface, an area for retaining the liquid and for allowing further gravity separation of the gas/liquid phase, an enclosure for the above mentioned elements, a gas outlet, and a liquid outlet.
The device functions by initially separating the gas from the oil by centrifugation in the conical separator, then by allowing the remaining liquid to further separate by gravity in the retention area.
