Hydrocyclones
Our AP20 liquid/liquid or deoiling hydrocyclone demonstrates proven, market leading operational performance.
The compact nature of the AP20 deoiling hydrocyclone makes it a high efficiency, high online turndown and high erosion resistance solution that is also extremely cost effective.
Our desanding hydrocyclone systems range from a 1″ diameter hydrocyclone for high efficiency in solids clarification to a 3″ diameter hydrocyclone for larger solids, high throughput and minimal pressure drop.
All of our desanding hydrocyclones are able to operate in high pressure, highly erosive wellhead conditions.
The AP20 Hydrocyclone Liner
Industry leading deoiling performance in a compact liner solution
Enhanced conditioning of produced water and solids in preparation for discharge, reuse or further treatment.
Standardised or customised
Two- and four-cell Induced Gas Flotation (IGF) separators are available to meet your application’s requirements.
High performance separation
IGFs reintroduce and incorporates bubbles of gas into the produced water, which adhere to the oil before floating to the top of the vessel to be skimmed off.
Fully integrated solutions
Additional solutions may be required to meet your process and output requirements, including chemical injection to break down emulsions.
Typically operated at close to atmospheric pressure, degassers liberate the dissolved gas from produced water to form millions of tiny bubbles. In a similar way to IGF, these gas bubbles adhere to residual oil droplets which they carry to the surface for removal.
For significant process performance on a minimal footprint, our Compact Flotation Units (CFUs) employ the proprietary Alderley diffuser swirl device to form a ‘soft spin’ cyclone that creates optimum gas bubble size and distribution for maximum oil recovery.
