EROSION CONTROL SYSTEM - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240018842 titled 'EROSION CONTROL SYSTEM

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a hydrocarbon extraction system that includes an erosion control system. The erosion control system consists of a housing with a first inlet, a second inlet, and an outlet. The housing directs a flow of particulate-laden fluid between the first inlet and the outlet. A conduit is inserted into the housing through the second inlet and rests within it. The conduit changes the direction of the fluid and reduces erosion of the housing. The conduit has apertures that direct the fluid into a conduit cavity and guides it to the outlet. The erosion control system does not require a plug or sleeve around or in the conduit.

  • The hydrocarbon extraction system includes an erosion control system.
  • The erosion control system consists of a housing with inlets and an outlet.
  • The housing directs the flow of particulate-laden fluid.
  • A conduit is inserted into the housing and reduces erosion.
  • The conduit has apertures that direct the fluid into a cavity and guide it to the outlet.
  • The erosion control system does not require a plug or sleeve.

Potential Applications:

  • Hydrocarbon extraction processes
  • Oil and gas industry
  • Mining operations

Problems Solved:

  • Erosion of housing in hydrocarbon extraction systems
  • Damage caused by particulate-laden fluid flow

Benefits:

  • Reduced erosion of housing
  • Improved durability and longevity of the extraction system
  • Cost savings from reduced maintenance and repairs


Original Abstract Submitted

a hydrocarbon extraction system that includes an erosion control system. the erosion control system includes a housing defining a first inlet, a second inlet, and an outlet. the housing receives and directs a flow of a particulate laden fluid between the first inlet and the outlet. a conduit rests within the housing. the conduit changes a direction of the particulate laden fluid and reduces erosion of the housing. the conduit is inserted into the housing through the second inlet. the conduit defines a plurality of apertures between an exterior surface and an interior surface of the conduit. the apertures direct the fluid into a conduit cavity. the conduit guides the fluid entering the conduit cavity to the outlet. the erosion control system excludes a plug and/or a sleeve around or in the conduit.
