Protecting Our Environment
During the production of hydrocarbons,
a water stream is also produced
containing hydrocarbons, inorganic
chemicals, radioactive materials and
suspended solids. This water can be
either re-injected back into the well or
disposed of into the sea but even water
for simple disposal has to be highly
treated to conform to environmental
legislation.
Excessive produced water is becoming a
major factor in abandoning production
wells making water production a major
environmental and economic concern.
Therefore, effective systems for
treatment of this water are necessary.
A typical system incorporates a cyclone
and a coalescing filter to remove the
bulk of the oil followed by an oil
adsorption filter for the final polishing
stage. The final filter can be protected
Benefits
- Maintains formation permeability
through removal of particulate
and bacteria
- Allows utilisation of a
natural resource
- Cost efficient method of treatment
Features
- Easily retrofitted into
existing hardware
- High dirt holding capacity allows for high volumes
ED2000ED2000 Series condensate drains are the reliable, easy to install, cost effective solution for condensate removal.
GuardflowGUARDFLOW absolute rated pleated filter elements are designed for use in the high pressure / differential pressure environments of the oil and gas industries.
Pleatflow NPLEATFLOW N filter cartridges have been designed specifically for oil field applications and can be used as a polishing filter for injection water or to filter completion fluids, protecting the well and removing dirt from brines that can lead to a decrease in productivity.
Sorbflow VSORBFLOW cartridges differ from those offered by other manufacturers where hydrocarbons are removed through surface adsorption onto the medium, SORBFLOW V cartridges employ a proprietary modified polymer that both absorbs and chemically binds the hydrocarbon molecules into its interior matrices.
TexflowTEXFLOW precision wound depth filter cartridges are manufactured to give a considerable dirt holding capacity coupled with high flow rates and low pressure loss.
