Sand Filtration Units

5,000psig - 15,000psig
Airpac Bukoms rental fleet of 5,000psig, 10,000psig and 15,000psig sand filtration units improve well analysis during testing operations through the effective removal of sand and other solids from the well effluent. The sand filter consists of two vertical vessels, each vessel holding one inner filter assembly. The two filtration pods are controlled individually allowing for either single or dual pot operation. Normally, one vessel is in use, in order to facilitate cleaning of the other. The unit is skid mounted and complete with inlet and outlet manifolding, double gate valves on the downstream side and connections to register differential pressure across filters. Each sand filter is supplied with an extensive spares package and fully equipped tool box. Features and benefits > > > > > > > Modular and rugged filter design Standard 200 micron filter cartridge supplied Annular flow and sand storage Safe & quick cleaning features Vertically positioned gate valves (to avoid gate obstruction) Fitted with back up valves No post-frac clean up required, production starts immediately through the facilities

Options > A range of micron screen sizes are available on request.

5,000psig - 15,000psig
Filtration System The stainless steel mesh filter consists of one element, which is mounted concentrically. Opposite to the laser cut screen, the mesh screen filter has more slots. The filter assembly element can be altered in an early manufacturing stage, if required by the application. Advantages: > > > > Minimum mesh size 50 Micron Filter collapse pressure <100barg Maximum OD 14 inch Gas flow capacity 5,000psig up to 20 MM scf/d 10,000psig up to 35 MM scf/d 15,000psig up to 50 MM scf/d Liquid flow capacity up to 5,000 Bpd On the 15,000psig units cleaning is effected by using the 21/16" manual choke to remove the sediment out of the vessel. The filters are emptied by removing the screens out of the top of the vessels, utilising the air operated hoist and after which the sand can be removed and the screen inspected. Filter element removal is not required during operations. If at a point the filter element requires inspection or replacement due to physical wear, the entire element can be retrieved from the outer vessel top-end. Cleaning The 5,000psig and 10,000psig units have a series of high pressure water injection nozzles positioned on the outer vessel diameter, to facilitate sand removal between vessel and filter element. The sand/water mixture exits the vessel through 2" flow points, positioned on the bottom side of the vessel. Cleaning time per vessel approx. 15 minutes.

>

Flow capacity is dependant on filter element mesh size, viscosity and the amount of pollution. The inner filter elements are designed to stop sand/debris transport, without obstructing liquid and or gas flow through the unit. Gas velocities across the filter elements are greatly reduced, minimising actual filter wear and increasing its life span.
