Abstract

A separator suitable for separating a crude oil feed containing gas into gas and liquid comprises a vessel having an inlet 7 for feed disposed so that feed introduced under a pressure gradient is caused to form a downwardly flowing vortex of enhanced liquid from which gas separates, an upper outlet 4 for the gas comprising a conduit extending downwardly into the vessel from the top thereof referred to as a vortex finder, a lower outlet for the enhanced liquid, and wherein the vortex finder has a baffle assembly 3 associated therewith, said baffle assembly being rotatable about a vertical axis. The baffle assembly 3 can be rotatable relative to the vortex finder. The vortex finder may be connected to a gas scrubber for removing oil droplets from the gas. <IMAGE>
