Filter Presses

Optimize deepwater and space-limited filtration applications

The size of conventional filtration packages can pose challenges, particularly in deepwater and ultradeepwater operations. Offshore equipment must be compact, versatile, and streamlined. In response, M-I SWACO designed compact, modular service equipment with optimized packaging that significantly reduces footprint and minimizes flowlines and connections.

The diatomaceous earth filter press is recommended when processing wellbore fluids to overcome potential filtrate throughput dropoff. The unit is an effective, cost-efficient solution to conventional filtration and is available in sizes from 800 ft² to 1,800 ft² [74.3 m² to 167.2 m²].
