Benefits

Maximize your oil recovery

Up to 30 times more hydraulically efficient than traditional gunbarrels, KBK HWSB^TM skim tanks are at the heart of every KBK oil recovery solution. This tank are best utilized for high water cut situations such as salt water disposal facilites or production sites. 

They are proven to:

• Improve recovery rates by as much as 5x
• Separate virtually all oil from water, to an average of less than 30 ppm Improve pad site and SWD profitability
• Pay for themselves within just a few months
• Better clarify water for injection, reducing well plugging and well bore damage
• Dehydrate separated crude to pipeline quality (in most cases)
• Remove the need to use costly chemicals in your Salt Water Disposal separation process

KBK DFSD^TM desanders complement our skim tanks. Using proprietary technology, our desanders reduce maintenance costs by removing the suspended, abrasive solids that adversely impact pump and piping life.

FINANCING SOLUTIONS

KBK offers a free 90 day test trial, short and long term leasing options, and purchase financing with flexible terms.

How it works

Revolutionary design for high water cuts

KBK HWSB^TM skim tanks feature overall hydraulic efficiency approaching 72% (considered the real-world maximum). This compares with 3-5% for gunbarrels. There’s no better oil recovery system in the world than one based on KBK HWSB^TM skim tanks and configured by KBK engineers.

Consulting/Service

Support at every step

Our engineers and service team work with you from concept to startup and beyond. Let our oil-water separation experts provide a custom oil recovery solution, optimized for your input and production requirements through proper piping design recommendations and the selection of pumps and associated equipment. As an OEM distributor for Vaughan Pump, KBK can recommend the size and most appropriate pump for your application, ensuring that you achieve maximum oil recovery. A low-shear pump from Vaughan Pump will prevent the shearing of oil molecules, which adversely impacts separation. 

Where possible and preferred, some of your existing equipment may be able to be reused. Every KBK HWSB^TM skim tank solution includes onsite startup and operator training, services worth thousands of dollars. KBK  install services include setting the tanks on the pad site, stair and walk assembly and fiberglass piping installation.   KBK also offers containment packages and tank pads.  Annual SWD maintenance checks are available to insure peak performance of all of the equipment at your SWD.
