Our truck-mounted hydration unit is ideal for lower-rate jobs, especially those in remote locations with limited pad space. Its compact design gives the unit improved mobility along narrow, winding roads as well as a smaller footprint on location, leaving more room for other equipment. When used in conjunction with faster hydration gels, the unit is a great all-around unit for both low- and medium-rate jobs.
Features/Benefits
- Automatic tub level system to maintain tank volume
- Automatic liquid chemical system (HYDRATRAC or ECAMS) to precisely meter gel, KCL, and other liquid chemicals based on suction rate
- Recirculation system to roll tank before job
- Optional on-board hose racks
- Dual liquid gel pumping systems
- KCL additive system
- Real-time measurement of viscosity and/or pH of exiting fluid
- Dry mix systems
- 60+ barrel tank capacity
- Tank interior coating
- Cold-weather or high-ambient options available
Trailer-mounted hydration units
Our trailer-mounted hydration unit delivers the most reliable operation and precise automated control. Ideal for high-pressure pumping and today's modern fracturing treatments, the trailer-mounted unit is designed to create the necessary time and energy required for on-the-fly hydration of fracturing gels. The use of hydration units allows service companies to eliminate pre-gel operations that can result in lost profit due to unused gelled fluid and costly disposal.
Features/Benefits
- Automatic tub level system to maintain tank volume
- Automatic liquid chemical system (HYDRATRAC or ECAMS) to precisely meter gel, KCL, and other liquid chemicals based on suction rate
- Recirculation system to roll tank before job
- Dual liquid gel pumping systems
- KCL additive system
- Real-time measurement of viscosity and/or pH exiting fluid
- Dry mix systems
- Cold-weather or high-ambient options available (including cab with heat and A/C)
- 270+ barrel tank capacity
Skid-mounted hydration units
Our skid-mounted hydration unit has all the same functionality of our larger trailer units, but in a smaller package. The skid-mounted unit is designed to supply necessary energy into the slurry to accelerate the hydration process. The use of hydration units allows service companies to eliminate pre-gel operations that save space on offshore applications.
Features/Benefits
- Automatic tub level system to maintain tank volume
- Automatic liquid chemical system (HYDRATRAC or ECAMS) to precisely meter gel, KCL, and other liquid chemicals based on suction rate
- Real-time measurement of viscosity and/or pH of exiting fluid
- Liquid or dry gel systems available
- DNV 2.7-1 lifting certifications and CE marking available
- Optional stainless-steel tanks
- Standalone unit design or shared power
