iSensys SandAlert - Portable Sand Monitoring System
Sand monitoring in the oil and gas industry is absolutely paramount to keep wells producing efficiently and at capacity. Excessive solid production in the oil stream can cause catastrophic damage to well and rig equipment. The iSensys SandAlert Portable Sand Monitor has been designed to give oil and gas producers robust and dependable sand monitoring solutions. The Portable Sand Monitor is fitted into a rugged pelican case and is a complete kit including sensor, mounting strap, and 50 m extension lead, ideal for transporting between multiple sites.
When sand is produced from a reservoir, the production rate is reduced and maintenance costs go up, it also presents environmental risks with disposal of the solids. Produced sand enters the processing system and plant operators need to make sure that the process is capable of handling the sand/solids safely. An important aspect of sand management is reviewing erosion rates and removal issues.
The high-frequency, structure-borne acoustic signal generated by a sand impact on the wall of the pipe is detected by the PulsarGuard 2001 Sand Sensor. The acoustic signal is then converted and displayed on a graphic display on the iSensys Sand Alert Portable Sand Monitor.
