摘要： A cyclone sand separator kit, method, and separator, of which the kit includes a cyclone body having an inlet, a fluid outlet, and a solids outlet, the inlet being configured to receive a mixed fluid including a solid portion and a fluidic portion, the solids outlet being configured to receive the solid portion separated from the fluidic portion, and the fluid outlet being configured to receive the fluidic portion separated from the solids portion. The kit includes a plurality of cyclone inserts configured to be positioned in the cyclone body, at least partially between the inlet and the solids outlet and at least partially between the fluids outlet and the solids outlet. The cyclone inserts each define a vortical section configured to induce inertial separation of the mixed fluid, have different geometries including different inner diameters, lengths, angles, underflow outlet sizes, vortex finder placements, or a combination thereof.

摘要： A sand separation systems and method for operating a sand separation system, of which the method includes separating sand from a fluid using a plurality of separators. A plurality of manifold valves are each coupled to a respective one of the separators. The method includes selecting one of the separators to blowdown, signaling to one of the manifold valves coupled to the selected separator for the manifold valve to open, opening the manifold valve, signaling a blowdown unit to execute a blowdown, opening a valve of the blowdown unit in response to the signaling, receiving sand from the selected separator into a sand disposal unit through the open manifold valve and the blowdown unit, and measuring the sand using a sensor of the separator, a load cell of the sand disposal unit, or both.

摘要： An automated sand separator discharge system includes a sand separator disposed downstream of a wellhead, an inlet conduit for transporting a process stream to the sand separator, a fluid outlet conduit for transporting a liquid and gas stream from the sand separator, a sand discharge conduit for removing sand from the sand separator, first, second, and third valves disposed along the sand discharge conduit, a first transducer connected between the first and second valves and operative to measure pressure in a portion of the sand discharge conduit and to produce a pressure reading, and a control panel operatively connected to the first, second, and third valves and the first transducer, the control panel being programmed to initiate and terminate discharge of sand from the sand separator, and to determine if the first and second valves are sealing completely when closed.

摘要： An adjustable inlet assembly for a separator includes a nozzle positioned in an inlet of a cyclone housing, an inlet housing coupled to the cyclone housing and sealing therewith around the inlet, and a movable rod disposed at least partially in the inlet housing. The movable rod is configured to move between a first position in which the movable rod at least partially obstructs fluid flow in the nozzle, and a second position in which the movable rod does not obstruct fluid flow in the nozzle.

摘要： A sand separator and method of manufacturing a sand separator, of which the sand separator includes an insert defining a vortical flow chamber therein. The insert comprises a cylindrical portion and a conical portion, and the insert is made at least partially from a ceramic material. The separator also includes an inlet extending through the insert in the cylindrical portion and configured to introduce a sand-laden fluid into the vortical flow chamber, a first outlet extending through vertically upward from the cylindrical portion and configured to receive a fluid portion of the sand-laden fluid from the vortical flow chamber, and a second outlet extending vertically downward from the conical portion and configured to receive a sand portion of the sand-laden fluid from the vortical flow chamber.

摘要： A cyclone sand separator includes a cyclone body having an inlet, a fluid outlet, and a solids outlet. The inlet is configured to receive a mixed fluid including a solids portion and a fluids portion. The solids outlet is configured to receive the solids portion separated from the fluids portion. The fluid outlet is configured to receive the fluids portion separated from the solids portion. The cyclone sand separator also includes a plurality of inlet inserts having different geometries. The inlet inserts are each configured to be positioned at least partially in the inlet. The inlet inserts are rigid and configured to be fixed in place at least partially in the inlet, such that the inlet inserts do not move with respect to the inlet. The cyclone sand separator also includes a flange configured to be coupled to the selected inlet insert.
