System and method for offshore (topside or subsea) and onshore water reinjection for secondary recovery
A system includes a fluid injection system. The fluid injection system includes a rotary isobaric pressure exchanger (IPX) configured to receive a first fluid, to receive a second fluid extracted from a source well, to utilize the second fluid to pressurize the first fluid for injection into an injection well, and to inject the pressurized first fluid into the injection well.
1. A system, comprising:
a fluid transportation system configured to transport oil, comprising:
a separator configured to separate a multi-phase fluid extracted from a source well into a plurality of components, wherein the plurality of components comprises at least the oil;
a rotary isobaric pressure exchanger (IPX) configured to receive the oil from the separator, to receive the multi-phase fluid extracted from the source well, to utilize the multi-phase fluid to pressurize the oil to enable transport of the oil from the rotary IPX to a designated location;
wherein the oil is derived from the multi-phase fluid by the separator subsequent to the multi-phase fluid passing through the rotary IPX.
2. The system of claim 1 , wherein the designated location is located above a sea surface.
3. The system of claim 2 , wherein the designated location comprises an oil platform.
4. The system of claim 2 , wherein the designated location comprises a vessel.

8. The system of claim 1 , wherein the rotary IPX is disposed below the sea surface.
9. The system of claim 1 , wherein the separator is disposed below the sea surface.
10. A system, comprising:
a fluid transportation system, comprising:
a rotary isobaric pressure exchanger (IPX) configured to receive oil derived from a multi-phase fluid extracted from a source well, to receive the multi-phase fluid extracted from the source well, to utilize the multi-phase fluid to pressurize the oil to enable transport of the oil from the rotary IPX to a designated location;
wherein the oil is derived from the multi-phase fluid by a separator subsequent to the multi-phase fluid passing through the rotary IPX.
11. The system of claim 10 , wherein the designated location is located above a sea surface.
12. The system of claim 10 , wherein the designated location is located onshore.
13. A method for utilizing a fluid transportation system in a hydrocarbon extraction operation, comprising:
extracting a high pressure, multi-phase fluid from a source well;
utilizing a rotary isobaric pressure exchanger (IPX) to receive oil derived from the high pressure, multi-phase fluid extracted from the source well and to pressurize oil using the high pressure, multi-phase fluid;
separating, via a separator, the oil from the high pressure, multi-phase fluid subsequent to the high pressure, multi-phase fluid being utilized to pressurize the oil; and
transporting a pressurized oil from the rotary IPX to a designated location.
