ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A method and apparatus for reducing the danger of vapour flash in Oil, Water and Gas Separators. The method consists of the following described steps. Place a secondary pressure vessel having an inlet, an outlet, gas separation means and gas venting means, inside of a heated primary pressure vessel having an inlet, means for separation of oil and water, a water outlet, an oil outlet and means for venting gases. The outlet of the secondary vessel is connected to the inlet of the primary vessel. Flow oil well production, containing gas together with an emulsion of oil and water, through the secondary vessel at pressures of between 10 and 60 pounds, thereby substantially degasifying the resulting oil and water emulsion which flows through the outlet of the secondary vessel into the inlet of the primary vessel. Separate the oil and water in the primary vessel at substantially atmospheric pressure, such that any gases remaining in the oil are released into the primary vessel for venting through the gas venting means to an external flare.
