Crude Oil Desalter Services

Unique combined offering for crude oil desalters, heater treaters and oil/water separators

Either in Upstream and in refineries, most desalters operate in conditions that are far from the ones they were designed for.

We’ve learned that there is significant improvement to be done in existing desalters to bring them to their optimal operating point, providing significant savings. Thanks to combined design and chemical products expertise, Veolia helps refineries to overcome the challenges of adapting to new crudes. With our flexible services packages we can improve your desalter’s performance by providing technical support to your team while optimizing your investment choices throughout your asset’s lifecycle. From design review to full refurbishment, assuming responsibility of operation and performance while supplying chemicals and monitoring services, Veolia offers an holistic approach to always making the best compromises without bias

Our service offerings can be tailored to meet your needs and provide access to expertise, improved productivity, troubleshooting and detecting problems, retrofits & upgrades and operator training.
