The Twister Separator System offers highly effective gas dehydration and hydrocarbon dewpointing without the need of chemicals. Highest availability in combination with chemical-free operations and hardly any maintenance open the door to unmanned operation. The system comprises of the Supersonic Separator and the Hydrate Separator. Multiple Supersonic Separators operate around a single Hydrate Separator, enabling chemical-free dehydration and hydrocarbon dewpointing in one small-footprint module. Absence of emissions makes the system the best ESG-performing. Twister can be operated remotely, unmanned and completely controlled from the central control room.

High availability

Compact and enclosed

Chemical free dehydration

Virtually no maintenance

Simple and reliable/no rotating parts

No emissions

Reduced plot space

Suitable for unmanned operations

Requires pressure drop (like other expansion cooling technologies)

Allows fully digital operation

Specification

Specification Title	Specification Description
Areas of application	Onshore and Offshore gas dehydration and/or hydrocarbon dewpointing both for sweet and sour natural gas. Bulk CO2 removal from natural gas. Light Oil/Condensate stripping from natural gas.
Environment	Sustainable, long-term and environmentally sound gas processing. A risk-free alternative to conventional systems reliant on solvents, adsorption beds, chemicals and complex glycol-based regeneration processes.
Safety	High availability, no unplanned outages, and minimal HSE and environmental risk due to no chemicals and emissions.
Flexibility	Flexible gas processing solutions which can be scaled up to handle varying gas flow rates and gas composition.
Applicability	Can be optimized for a broad variety of applications from dehydration and hydrocarbon dewpointing applications through to NGL recovery applications at higher pressure drops.
Capabilities	Recovers valuable hydrocarbons through highly efficient expansion cooling with no rotating parts.
CAPEX	Savings come from less supporting equipment, smaller footprint and platform sizes, reduced installation costs, and an end to the equipment and laboratory facilities used in chemical-based separation.
OPEX	Operational costs are reduced by low maintenance requirements and the chemical free operation, plus increased revenues from higher gas production and increased condensate volumes resulting from higher production time (more than 99% uptime).
