APPLICATIONS
■ Produced water and sand treatment
■ Integrated operations
■ Remote and satellite production
■ Operations with unstaffed platforms
FEATURES
■ Fully automatic tuning
■ Programmable logic controller (PLC) with
advanced control algorithms
■ Continuous oil-in-water (OIW)
monitoringcapabilities
■ Automatic adjustment forpeakdischarge
■ Detailed diagnostic picture
BENEFITS
■ Ensures lowest possible OIW discharge
■ Optimizes treatment and cleaning
efficiency of the entire produced
watersystem
■ Decreases reject waste stream generation
and flotation gas consumption
■ Reduces personnel requirements
andHSE risk
■ Minimizes tuning errors
The PWSM Logic* real-time produced water and sand treatment optimization system automatically assures
the lowest-possible OIW volume for discharge to the sea or for reinjection. A reliable and cost-efficient
alternative to manually controlled produced water and sand treatment systems, the PWSM Logic system
constantly monitors all input and output of the system, including
■ flotation gas
■ produced water
■ reject differential pressure ratio
■ reject flow rates
■ OIW content.
Eliminating human error
Discharge peaks often govern the overall average OIW discharge, particularly in challenging
offshore fields. The need to precisely tune produced water and sand treatment equipment to meet
real-time conditions led Cameron to develop the automated PWSM Logic system for use with EPCON
CFU technology. System applications have expanded to fit any Cameron produced water and sand
management system, including CYCLOTECH P Series* preseparation hydrocyclone technologies,
CYCLOTECH B Series* deoiling hydrocyclone technologies, and theEPCON Degasser* produced water
degassing vessel.
Typically, equipment used to treat produced water were manually tuned and relied on laboratory OIW
analysis, visual inspection of various sample points, and manual valve setting. This approach required the
best judgment of the equipment operator, which can lead to misjudgments andmistakes.
PWSM Logic
Real-time produced water and sand treatment optimization system
An integrated component of PWSM Logic system is the EPCON RC* reject control system, which monitors and controls
the reject stream from EPCON CFU* compact flotation unit technology. The combination enables precise quantification
and minimization of reject flow.

The PWSM Logic system enhances Cameron produced water and sand treatment technologies,
allowing the lowest-possible OIW discharge to the sea at any time during the operation, which is
impossible with a manually tuned system. Additionally, during the frequent process upsets that occur
at production facilities, the automated PWSM Logic system has shown considerably improved quality
to meet discharge and reinjection requirements.

The automatic control system of the PWSM Logic real-time produced water and sand treatment optimization system removes offshore operating personnel
from the tuning process, optimizing efficiency and mitigating HSErisks. Red arrows show where in the produced water and sand management system the
PWSM Logic system can be implemented for monitoring and controlling operation parameters.
