Abstract: Disclosed is a system and method for monitoring a hydrocarbon storage system. The system and method for using the system allows the operator to determine if any undesired releases of gaseous hydrocarbons are occurring. The method utilizes a computer programmed with a process simulator function suitable for miming equations of state and determining the unwanted release of hydrocarbons from a hydrocarbon storage system.

Abstract: Disclosed is a compressor system suitable for carrying out artificial gas lift operations at an oil or gas well. Also disclosed is a method for controlling the compressor system. The methods disclosed provide the well operator with the ability to identify and maintain gas injection rates which result in the minimum production pressure. The minimum production pressure will be determined either by a bottom hole sensor or a casing pressure sensor located at the surface or any convenient location capable of monitoring pressure at the wellhead.

Abstract: Disclosed is an improved vapor recovery system. The vapor recovery system includes a vapor recovery tower and a vapor recovery unit. The vapor recovery tower includes an internal heat exchanger suitable for heating crude oil processed by the vapor recovery tower. The vapor recovery unit includes a compressor suitable for compressing and thereby heating vapors and gases separated from crude oil by the vapor recovery tower. The gases heated by compression within the vapor recovery unit subsequently pass through the jacket or shell of the heat exchanger.

Abstract: This disclosure describes a natural gas collection system utilizing a single compressor to manage collection of natural gas from both high-pressure and low-pressure sources. The operation of the single compressor is controlled by a PLC configured to receive pressure data from sensors and to direct compressor speed in order to maintain natural gas pressure at the user defined targets.
