Sažetak
Formation water is produced during the whole lifetime of the hydrocarbon reservoir alongside the oil and/or gas and it represents the main part of the produced fluid. The produced formation water is separated during the process of dehydration. This paper deals with the formation water separation costs regarding the fields A, B and C which are located in the western part of the Sava Depression. The dehydration process regarding the field A is executed in three locations, and regarding the fields B and C it is executed in one location. The technological system of formation water separation and the geological characteristics of the above-mentioned reservoirs is represented. A statistical analysis regarding the formation water separation costs has been made. The costs have been statistically estimated and a correlation between the costs relevant for the usual formation water separation process has also been made. The purpose of the analysis of the cost of dehydration process is optimization of the production system and cost control of process.
