A gas transfer and depressurization system that is configured to transfer gas from a first location to a second location wherein during the transfer of gas the pressure of the first location is reduced. The gas transfer and depressurization system includes a drive chamber having an interior volume with a drive assembly movably disposed therein. A first cylinder and a second cylinder are operably coupled to the drive chamber on opposing sides thereof. The drive assembly includes a drive rod having portions extending into the first cylinder and second cylinder wherein the drive rod has pistons formed on opposing ends thereof. A controller is operably coupled to a compressed air source and is configured to provide compressed air into said drive chamber so as to reciprocally move the drive assembly. Gas blocks and coupling block are additionally present and facilitate flow of gas intermediate the first and second cylinders.

Methods and systems are provided for producing hydrocarbons from production fluids that have water as an external phase. A method for transporting a hydrocarbon through a pipeline includes injecting water into a production stream at a production center. The production stream includes a hydrocarbon, and the water injection forms a transportation stream that includes a water external phase. The transportation stream is flowed through a transportation line to a surface facility, wherein the transportation line comprises a plurality of static mixers spaced at intervals along the transportation line.

A method for reducing emissions from a vessel includes isolating the vessel from a downstream fluid flow line, purging a fluid from the vessel by injecting purging media into the vessel to push the fluid through a check valve of a vent tubing and into the downstream fluid flow line, and draining the purging media from the vessel. A first end of the vent tubing is coupled to the housing of the vessel, and a second end of the vent tubing is coupled to the downstream fluid flow line. Further, the vent tubing includes a check valve disposed between the first end and the second end, and the check valve is configured to allow fluid to flow from the housing to the downstream fluid flow line.

A method of preparing a system for a maintenance operation having first subsystem, a second subsystem, and a third subsystem separated by sealing blocks. To reduce the hazard risk, the step of removing gas from the second subsystem via a bleed conduit includes applying the sub-atmospheric pressure using a venturi-pump into which an anoxic gas to drive said venturi-pump is introduced to mix with and remove gas from the second subsystem, said venturi-pump having a maximum venturi ratio Mvr.

The present disclosure relates to a system and method of a compressor in fluid communication with the system inlet to receive a first fluid from the gas utility pipe. The compressor system and method further including a first fuel bottle in fluid communication with the compressor to receive the first fluid from the compressor, a second fuel bottle adapted to receive a second fluid that is different than the first fluid, and a dual-fuel engine coupled with the compressor to provide input power to the compressor, the dual-fuel engine coupled with the first fuel bottle and the second fuel bottle. The dual-fuel engine is adapted to operate using the first fluid in a first operational mode and the second fluid in a second operational mode.
