Diverter

Diverter Manifolds are used to redirect the well fluids/ gases produced during well testing operations. They are used to divert gas flow from equipment to flare booms, oil from equipment to burner heads, air from compressors to burner heads, etc.
Gas and oil diverters of this type are comprised of five basic elements. Firstly, the inlet tee, secondly, a pair of ball valves, and finally, two outlet flange adapters for reconnection to the process pipework.
When used in conjunction with Apex Petroleum Services process piping packages, these units provide selective line choice with minimum restrictions.

Features and Benefits

  • Use of multiple units allows flexibility in the system
  • Units can be built into skids for ease of transportation and handling
  • Available in various sizes and configurations
