A pipe separator is for separation of fluids, for example separation of
oil, gas and water in connection with extraction and production of oil
and gas from formations under a sea bed. The pipe separator comprises an
extended, tubular separator body having a diameter at inlet and outlet
ends that is mainly equal to or slightly greater than a diameter of a
transport pipe to which the separator body is connected. A cyclone is
arranged upstream of the separator body for separation of any gas
present. An electrostatic coalescer is incorporated in and constitutes an
integrated part of the separator body.
