Hi all,
I have attached a document and image showing the simple sketch of the vessel.
1. the liquid height on both are the same at about 30'
2. The only difference between option A and B are, for A oil outlet is through downcomer inside the vessel while B has the outlet nozzle at the bottom, but still rizes up to the same height at A.

Will the pressure it will require to push the liquid into the next vessel remain consistent/same?

As much as possible, do it right the first time...

If the density is the same then the pressure should be the same.

Remember - More details = better answers
Also: If you get a response it's polite to respond to it.
