INTEGRATED SEPARATOR TURBINE

摘要

A fluid processing system and method are provided for separating a liquid portion from a multiphase fluid. The system and method may include a steam turbine assembly coupled with a rotary shaft, and a separator coupled with the rotary shaft and positioned upstream of the steam turbine assembly. The separator may include an inlet end configured to receive a multiphase fluid, an outlet end fluidly coupled with the steam turbine assembly, and a separation chamber extending from the inlet end to the outlet end. The separation chamber may be configured to separate a liquid portion from the multiphase fluid to thereby provide a substantially gaseous fluid to the steam turbine assembly.
