August 2010 - Ebok Senior Process Engineer, Rob Fields, has recently completed Enhydra’s final inspection of the Vacuum Deaerator and Dual Media Filter vessels and internals at a fabrication yard in Corpus Christi, USA. These were designed by Enhydra Ltd for use on the Afren Ebok Development Project offshore Nigeria.
August 2010 In collaboration with Jutal Offshore Oil Services Limited, Enhydra has recently completed a series of offshore trials of the jointly developed Vortixx CFU (Compact Flotation Unit). The design of the Vortixx CFU is a unique concept developed by Enhydra, with pilot units fabricated by regional partner Jutal. The trials took place on a number of Oil Production Facilities offshore China against other reputable CFU products. In many of the trials a single stage of Vortixx CFU outperformed 2 stages of the other products, providing excellent results even on reputably difficult to separate emulsions. Further details are available on request.

Water Flotation Vessel in Kazakhstan
September 2009
A UK based EPC contractor has been awarded a contract for the design of a new
offshore oil production platform as part of a large oilfield expansion. One of
the objectives of the project was to mimic phase 1 of the field development wherever
possible. However, with much higher volumes of produced water and with the operator’s
lower corporate oily water discharge limits there were new challenges to be met.
Enhydra were employed at the “select” stage of the development to identify what
changes would be required to meet these changes while minimising space, weight
and chemicals consumption.
August 2009
Enhydra have recently run a Produced Water Workshop for Kuwait Oil Company (KOC).

Produced Water Treatment Technologies & System Operation and Produced Water
Chemistry and Microbiology Issues. In addition to this key operational issues
were discussed in an open forum to identify good and bad experiences across KOC.
The whole workshop was run over a 3 day period in Ahmadi, Kuwait and was attended
by key operations and planning personnel from all of KOC’s regional operating sites.
