Stone Energy to use HF-SEP in GOM

Pellerin Water Solutions (PWS), a subsidiary of Pellerin Energy Group, has designed and built a Horizontal Flotation Separator (HF-SEP) for Stone Energy Corporation.

The specifically designed HF-SEP with dissolved gas flotation (DGF) technologies will enhance the separation process of oil and produced water which will maximize production and increase profitability. Stone Energy will incorporate the HF-SEP with its deepwater facility, Pompano, situated in the Gulf of Mexico .

"The Horizontal Flotation Separator is used in the treatment of produced water to meet regulatory standards for discharge,” Ed Godeaux, general manager, PWS said. “It includes an atmospheric-designed flotation cell capable of treating 40,000bbl water/d."

“The Horizontal Flotation Separator is one of the largest of its kind in the Gulf of Mexico and was built to exceed Stone Energy’s produced water needs,” Josh Pellerin, CEO and president, PEG said. “With this technology, Pellerin Water Solutions has positioned itself to be the leader in the oil and gas industry for produced water needs.”

Pellerin Energy Group consists of four business units -Water Solutions; Energy Rentals; Health, Safety and Environment; and Chemical and Lubricants.
