The article is devoted to the results of pilot tests of mobile unit for well production treatment developed by the authors at preliminary water discharge unit "Rassvet" of LUKOIL-PERM LLC. Mobile unit consists of four process units arranged on two grounds, providing a comfortable hospital transport, installation at the existing facility and the installation. This mobile unit is designed for oilfield fluid treatment on a scale of 1: 100. The main block allows to carry out oil and water treatment process by settling water emulsion in three process apparatuses using heating system, applying chemical reagents and fresh water. Unit allows to simulate the process of oil and water treatment objects, to conduct trials of new equipment and technology, to improve the quality of oil treatment and waste water with the possibility of additional outfitting and testing of new tools and equipment without changing the current process on the commercial units. During the pilot testing period it was tested four technologies that have reduced the content of suspended solids and oil in produced water in 4.5-5 times up to 10 mg/l. The recommendations for improving the quality of the product are prepared for implementation in the workplace.
