go through a separator where the oil and any water products are
sent to storage tanks and the gas is used to power equipment on
site (pump jack engine, tank heater, separator, flare, combustor,

gas plant. The oil and process water in the storage tanks is
loaded into tanker trucks and hauled off site for processing and
disposal.
