The next generation sand management

Page last modified

April 11 2024

Stork’s Advanced Online Desanding (AOD) system, now in its 3rd generation, sets a new standard for sand management that is safe, environmentally friendly and cost effective.

AOD removes sand from ‘live’ production separators efficiently and safely avoiding platform shutdown and maintaining production while reducing environmental impact.

Pros & Limitations

Enhanced safety due to absence of confined space entry

Enhanced production due to elimination of sand-induced shutdowns

Sand cleaned and safely returned to sea, reducing environmental impact and avoiding onshore disposal

Shorter turnarounds because desanding is taken out of the turnaround scope

AOD is not suitable for 2 phase gas processing separator
