Reliable Transfer
Blackmer® oil and gas compressors and pumps are primarily used in crude oil production, secondary recovery, vapor recovery and the loading, transfer, and unloading of raw/intermediate products from the field to storage and on into the refinery. Blackmer has a variety of pumps and oil and gas compressors that can be utilized throughout the three sectors of oil production and gathering:
Upstream
The upstream oil & gas sector refers to the search for, followed by the recovery and production of, crude oil and natural gas from the oilfields. This sector is also widely known as the exploration and production (E&P) sector. Stages within the upstream petroleum-product industry include the search for underground or underwater oil and gas fields, the drilling of exploratory wells and, if the wells are deemed economically viable and recoverable, the operation of wells that bring crude oil and raw natural gas to the well’s surface.
Midstream
The midstream oil & gas sector can include some elements of both the upstream and downstream sectors. However, the main component of midstream is the gathering system. Gathering systems are oil and natural gas storage areas where raw produced products are held until they can be transported, via pipeline, railcar or tanker truck to the refinery, where they are turned into marketable petroleum products.
Downstream
