ABSTRACT:
A modular well testing unit for use in hostile environments provides a plurality of modular sections providing upon assembly an enclosed structure for housing the components of the well testing unit, each of the modular sections being self-supporting and transportable. Upon assembly insulation is provided to give an internal controlled environment surrounded by a substantially continuous external shell. Access internally allows movement between adjacent modular sections by personnel, for example. A production intake allows an oil stream from an oil or gas well to be tested to be transmitted to the interior portion of the enclosure. An outlet is provided for discharging oil as well as air, gases, and liquids other than oil such as water. A plurality of well-testing, fluid-handling vessels are disposed respectively in the plurality of modular sections. A manifold forms fluid flow connections between the outlet, the inlet, and the various vessels with the manifold including temporary connections for forming detachable fluid-conveying connections between the different modular units.
