Oil Recovery System | KBK Industries

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.

Storage Tanks

Our fiberglass tanks, ranging from 100 to 1,500 barrel capacities, are in every major U.S. oil and gas basin, withstanding extreme weather conditions ranging from North Dakota cold to Kansas wind and Texas heat. Tanks are also available for agricultural, industrial and municipal operations.

Salt Water Tanks

Use KBK fiberglass tanks, from 100 to 1,500 barrel capacities, to store produced salt water at oil and natural gas wellsites and at SWD plants.

Oval Tanks

Tanks range from 20-to-100-barrel capacities and have proven their endurance for storing and hauling corrosive and noncorrosive liquids.

Gunbarrels

Gunbarrels are used for the economically efficient and low-maintenance treatment of oil in low water cut applications.

Free Water Knockouts

Free water knockouts are horizontal pressurized vessels that provide a space for free water to settle out of a well stream.

KBK Skim Tank Technology

Our patented HWSB skim tank for oil-water separation system dramatically outperforms traditional gunbarrel tanks in high-water applications such as salt water disposal facilities.

KBK Desander Technology

Rely on our patented DFSD desander to efficiently remove the abrasive solids from the drilling fluids that cannot be removed by shakers. The DFSD desander will prevent solids from filling tanks in your battery and will extend the life of your well.
