...Results and Analysis Figure 4 shows an overlay plot with production paramenters such as pressure and rates as well as raw data obtained from the acoustic sensors. The raw acoustic data from the sensor upstream of the desander averaged at 2000 to 3000 (100nV) indicating minimal solids...

...Abstract Abstract With the advent of advancement in hydrocyclones in oil industry, there has been various types of hydrocyclone based desanding system developed each with its own pros and cons. Main challenges being the handling of multiphase fluid resulting in four phases of feed...

... also known as dynamic desander was proposed and a pilot was conducted in Malaysian offshore platform to prove the concept. New Technology Rotary / motorized de-sander offered a unique concept of rate independent, high separation, bulk desander capability and insignificant pressure drop mitigating...

.../HT well-testing environment has provided a unique opportunity to fulfill the need for enhancement of proppant clean-up equipment and methods. Efforts have been concentrated on improving clean-up times, equipment efficiency and refining the design of the desander/filter sand management system (SMS...

... separation, or more specifically, the separation of produced sand from crude and/or water will be defined as "desanding" and that hydrocyclone a "desander". Liquid-liquid separation as applied in the removal of residual oil from produced water will be defined as "deciling" and that hydrocyclone a "deciler...
