Abstract: A method for downhole oil-water separation, according to one or more aspects of the present disclosure, comprises disposing a oil-water separation system in a wellbore, the system comprising a first separator connected in hydraulic series with a second separator; separating a well fluid in the first separator into a first injection stream and a first production stream; discharging the first injection stream to an inlet of the second separator; separating the first injection stream in the second separator into an output injection stream and a second production stream; and injecting the output injection stream from the wellbore into an injection formation.

Abstract: The present application relates to a surface separation system used to separate fluids such as oil, gas, water, and/or sand slurry produced from a well. The separation system may include a pumping system, such as a horizontal pumping system (HPS), a separator, and flow control hardware. The separator system may be mounted on a skid or incorporated directly into a production flow. The separator system may be used in conjunction and/or in parallel with a conventional surface separation facility.
