HC Petroleum has recently completed the design and manufacturing of a Dual Pot Sand Filter for an oil and gas project in Oman.

Designed for reliable sand removal from produced fluids, this skid-mounted package features two parallel sand filter vessels, allowing one unit to remain in service while the other is available as a standby unit. This configuration helps maintain continuous operation and provides greater flexibility during sand collection and maintenance.

The Dual Pot Sand Filter was designed in accordance with ASME Section VIII, Division 1, with a design pressure of up to 5 MPa and an operating pressure of 2 MPa. The package is designed to handle a maximum flow rate of approximately 7,000 BPD.

The dual-vessel arrangement is particularly suitable for oil and gas production applications where uninterrupted operation and efficient sand removal are important.

The scope of supply includes:

Dual desander vessels

Sand collection tank

Process piping

Valves

Instrumentation

All major components are integrated into a compact package to simplify installation and operation at the project site.

For oil and gas production facilities, effective sand removal is essential to help protect downstream equipment and reduce the risk of erosion, blockage, and operational interruptions.

With its 1-in-service + 1-standby configuration, this Dual Pot Sand Filter provides a practical solution for continuous field operation while allowing individual vessels to be isolated when required.

HC Petroleum provides customized sand separators, desanders, sand filters, and other oil & gas production equipment based on project-specific flow rates, pressure requirements, operating conditions, and applicable design codes.
