The process includes removing volatiles from the first polymer solution and the second polymer solution in the devolatilization vessel to form a devolatilized first polymer melt and a devolatilized second polymer melt.

Oil-gas separators and methods of using the oil-gas separators are disclosed. An exemplary oil-gas separator comprises a first fluid channel for receiving a well fluid, the first fluid channel having an open proximal end, a sealed distal end, and a plurality of perforations in a distal portion of the first fluid channel's exterior wall for expelling well fluid comprising oil and entrained gas into an annular space between the oil-gas separator and a well casing to produce gas-reduced oil and a second fluid channel for receiving the gas-reduced oil, the second fluid channel having a sealed proximal end, an open distal end for expelling the gas-reduced oil to the Earth's surface, and a plurality of perforations in a proximal portion of the second fluid channel's exterior wall for receiving fluid from the annular space.

A vapor recovery apparatus degasses oil and water produced by an oil well. The apparatus has a first vessel forming a column. Oil containing gas enters the bottom of the first vessel and flows up to a liquid outlet. Heat is applied to the rising oil, wherein the oil foams. Gas escapes into the upper end. The foam flows into a second column and along a roughened surface. The bubbles in the foam break apart, releasing the gas. The oil flows down the second column to an outlet. Water is introduced into a third vessel. The water releases gas therein, which gas mingles with the gas from the oil. The third vessel is located around the first and second vessels. A compressor may be used to withdraw the gas and provide hot compressed gas to heat the rising oil in the first column.

A degassing system includes a degassing tank with a first space area configured for having liquid introduced therein and a second space area configured for having the liquid from the first space area introduced therein. The first and the second space area are partially separated from one another by a separation element. The degassing system includes a controllable pump configured to pump liquid from the first space area to the second space area for a two-stage vacuum degassing process responsive to the pump being operated. The degassing system includes a control device configured to control the pump to not be operated for a single-stage vacuum degassing process and to be operated for a two-stage vacuum degassing process.

Apparatus and methods for degassing and analyzing drilling fluid discharged from a wellbore at an oil and gas wellsite. The apparatus may be a drilling fluid analysis system having a gas analyzer, a fluid analyzer, and a degasser operable to release and separate mud gas entrained in the drilling fluid. The degasser may include a gas-liquid separator having a separator inlet configured to receive the drilling fluid containing the entrained mud gas, a first separator outlet for discharging the mud gas fluidly connected with the gas analyzer, and a second separator outlet for discharging degassed drilling fluid fluidly connected with the fluid analyzer.
