Desanding Hydrocyclones

Ultimate Efficiency Desanding Hydrocyclones

Wellhead and produced water desanding with exceptional performance.

Removing solids from produced water is needed for protection of downstream equipment and to treat produced water for discharge or re-injection.  Considering throughput, pressure drop, reliability and the efficiency of solids removal are all important factors when specifying a hydrocyclone.  We use the latest technology to bring you a choice of hydrocyclones that can meet the most diverse of requirements.

Wellhead desanding

Some operations need sand to be removed at the front-end of the process to protect downstream equipment.  Our desanding hydrocyclones can operate at the high pressure, highly erosive wellhead conditions to bring you a practical solution for handling solids from well start-up and production fluids.  They can also be incorporated in specialist applications such as under-balanced drilling.

Produced Water Desanding

Whether supplied as loose items or as part of a complete produced water treatment package, the design of our desanding hydrocyclone brings you the best efficiency there is in the most compact of vessel.  We have decades of experience in supplying and integrating desanding packages incorporating sand slurry transportation equipment, sand washing, clean-up and disposal systems.

Our range of Desanding Hydrocyclones gives you the right choice for your application: highest efficiency in solids clarification from a 1” diameter hydrocyclone; optimum performance balance between flow rate, pressure drop and efficiency from a 2” diameter hydrocyclone, or high throughput and minimal pressure drop from a 3” diameter hydrocyclone.  Whatever you choose, our engineers will advise you and you will benefit from a desanding hydrocyclone solution that will bring you:

• High efficiency design
• High online turndown
• High erosion resistance
• Low maintenance
• Minimal control and instrumentation requirements
• Continuous or batch sand removal
• Integration with solids cleaning and disposal systems
