Performance & Capacity Debottlenecking

As the reservoir matures and the production facility ages, there is an increasing likelihood that the performance of water and sand related topsides plant will not match operator expectation. Water production profiles increasing beyond the nameplate capacity of the produced water treatment plant is a common problem and can be typically compounded by the start of more significant sand production. Existing equipment can become capacity constrained, or obsolete, or blocked with sand, or eroded by sand, or it might never have performed satisfactorily in the first place but they all lead to the same problem, they may struggle to maintain performance and availability.

 

In response to these problems Cyclotech provide technologies designed to significantly expand the operating envelope of existing equipment in terms of both capacity and performance.  These are simple and cost, time and space efficient upgrade options which are superior to standard equipment replacement solutions.

 

These technologies allow excess water and sand to be either:

These solutions are bespoke and optimised to meet the requirements of the specific application while operating within the constraints of that process. These technologies include:
