Replacement of the crude oil dehydration and desalting system at the Samaria II Production Complex

Sustitución del Sistema de Deshidratación y Desalado de Crudo en el Complejo de Producción Samaria II

Supply of a new crude oil dehydration and desalting system at the Samaria II Complex, forming part of the Samaria-Luna integral asset.

This system will ensure compliance with specifications regarding water and salt contained in crude oil sent to the Palomas crude oil commercialisation centre. This new process equipment will replace the existing equipment and will allow the system's capacity to be adapted to the installation's current operating ranges. In addition, it will bring greater efficiency and automation to the operations, which in turn will augment the safety of the process and the installation's personnel.
