Compressed air and vacuum systems are essential to the efficient and safe operations in the oil & gas industry – from drilling and exploration to processing and transportation.
Tiger Filtration products maintain safety, air quality, equipment longevity and environmental compliance.
With decades of experience in compressed air and vacuum filtration, Tiger Filtration provides tailored solutions to meet the complex needs of the oil and gas sector. Our high-efficiency filters and custom options help operators maintain productivity, protect sensitive equipment, and meet stringent air quality requirements for offshore and onshore operations.
Oil and gas environments present unique safety and operational challenges. With volatile atmospheres, pneumatic systems powered by compressed air are often preferred over electric alternatives to eliminate the risk of ignition from sparks.
Here’s how compressed air is used across the industry:
Compressed air powers essential tools and systems for both onshore and offshore drilling operations, including pneumatic wrenches, hoists, and control valves. It also aids in removing cuttings from the wellbore. Reliable filtration is critical to ensure safe operations and protect equipment from contamination.
Compressed air is vital for operating pneumatic instruments, control systems, actuating valves and other mechanisms on oil rigs and production sites. High-purity air ensures accurate measurement, system stability, and the safe operation of critical mechanisms.
Compressed air plays a crucial role in offshore oil well testing, providing the necessary power to operate equipment used to measure and analyse the flow of fluids from a well. It is often used to drive tools like flowback pumps, control valves and data acquisition systems.
Compressed air assists in the safe and efficient transportation of crude oil and natural gas to refineries. It powers pipeline control systems, supports leak detection, and provides purging capabilities. Proper filtration prevents contaminants from entering pipelines, protecting the integrity of transport pipelines and enhancing operational safety.
In hazardous environments, compressed air systems supply breathable air for workers wearing respiratory equipment. These systems ensure safety in contaminated or confined spaces, such as oil rigs or processing facilities, by delivering clean, reliable air free from harmful contaminants.
High purity compressed air supports gas separation and hydrocarbon processing during oil and gas refining. It powers essential operations like distillation and conversion, optimising product quality and efficiency. Effective filtration ensures pure process streams and protects sensitive equipment from contamination.
