METHODS OF LIMITING OR REDUCING THE AMOUNT OF OIL IN A SEA USING A FLUID DIRECTOR

摘要

A method of limiting the amount of oil in a sea comprises: positioning a device for directing the flow of a fluid adjacent to a wellhead, wherein the device comprises: a first fluid passageway; a second fluid passageway; a third fluid passageway, wherein the first fluid passageway is operatively connected to the second and third fluid passageways; and a fluid director, wherein the fluid director is operatively connected to the first, second, and third fluid passageways, and wherein depending on at least one of the properties of a fluid, the fluid director directs the fluid to increasingly flow into the second or third fluid passageways. A method of reducing the amount of oil in a sea comprises: inserting at least one component of the device for directing the flow of a fluid into a portion of a sea, wherein the portion of the sea comprises the oil.
