Pellerin’s Horizontal

Flotation Separator

Pellerin Water Solutions (PWS), a subsidiary of Pellerin Energy Group (PEG) has designed and built a Hor- izontal Flotation Separator (HF-

SEP) for Stone Energy Corporation.

The specifi cally designed HF- SEP with dissolved gas fl otation (DGF) technologies enhances the separa- tion process of oil and water which maximizes production, increas- ing profi tability. Stone Energy will incorporate the HF-SEP with its

GoM deepwater facility, Pompano. www.pellerinenergygroup.com

Macro Sensors LVDT Linear

Position Transmitters

Macro Sensors HSIR Series LVDT

Linear Position Transmitters are serving as level sensors to measure liquid level changes in gauging tank level volumes. A stainless-steel fl oat coupled to a nonmagnetic stainless- steel rod is attached to the high- permeability, armature core of the

LVDT. As there are no parts to wear out, the Sensors are nearly friction free to offer infi nite resolution and long term operation. www.macrosensors.com
