Sand Titan - Bakken Basin Case Study

May 22, 2025

Undisclosed Operator – First 4 Days of Flowback

Objective: Prove real-world sand separation under high-sand, multi-phase flowback conditions

Location: Bakken Basin

Equipment: Trilogy Sand Titan Cyclonic Separator

Duration: First 96 hours of flowback

Adaptive Inlet Performance: Real-Time Flow Adjustment

Inlet Mode Velocity Range Mean Velocity Sand Captured Capture Rate
Inlet A 16–59 ft/s 47.2 ft/s 12,210 lbs 99.9%
Inlet B 31–37 ft/s 34.7 ft/s 6,132 lbs 99.9%

When the inlet velocity increased, the Sand Titan switched from Inlet A to Inlet B in real time. The system never missed a beat, maintaining full separation efficiency without operator intervention.

At Trilogy, we witnessed this growth firsthand. This impressive growth sends a clear signal to both investors and the industry as a whole, our region remains a global stronghold for energy production. It’s a testament to the talent and innovative spirit driving this industry forward. 

Results 

Total Sand Captured: 18,342 lbs

Capture Rate: 99.9%

Flow Adjustments: Seamless inlet transition from A to B at 60 ft/s

Bypass Sand Detected: 0 lbs (confirmed via open-top tank + hydro-vac)

Operational Interruptions: None

Operator Takeaways from Field Deployment

✅ 18,342 lbs of sand removed
✅ 0 sand downstream
✅ 0 cleanouts required
