Piston vessels
Description
Piston vessels to enable both storage and transfer of fluids such as hydrocarbons, crude oils, water, brine are essential components in research and technical support work associated upstream oil. Strata has a wealth of experience of this type of system over many years. A precision piston which is free to float within an equally precise bore of a pressure vessel can provide segration between a pumping medium (a clean and non-aggressive fluid) and the fluid to be transferred.
