Fluid Regeneration

We recover and regenerate drilling fluids by removing hydrocarbons with ceramic membrane technology—cutting costs and enabling fluid reuse offshore.

With ceramic technology we are able to remove hydrocarbons from contaminated fluids to such a degree that they can be re-used. This contributes to significant cost savings. Typical examples include:

Removal of hydrocarbons from a wide range of brines (high SG and high viscosity). Brines have to satisfy certain criteria before they can be used in drilling operations. The removal of hydrocarbons is essential.

Removal of hydrocarbons from fresh water used for steam cleaning / tank cleaning operations. This is particularly useful when the availability of fresh water is scarce and is often used in offshore decom operations.
