Publication number: 20240139781Abstract: A flowback tank cleaning system and method is described. A flowback tank includes a self-cleaning system. A flowback tank cleaning method may include moving solid debris collected at a bottom of a collection section of a flowback tank towards a lift auger using a cleaning auger or a conveyer belt extending along a length of the collection section, the bottom of the collection section including an angled trough, funneling solid debris towards the cleaning auger or conveyor belt by placing the cleaning auger or conveyor belt at a base of the angled trough, spraying fluid downward through a series of fluid outlets, removing the sand so moved by the cleaning auger or conveyer belt from the flowback tank using the lift auger, and removing the fluid from the flowback tank using a drain manifold below the cleaning auger or conveyer belt.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 5, 2024Publication date: May 2, 2024Applicant: OIL STATES ENERGY SERVICES, L.L.C.Inventors: BRODEY W. DAVIS, JAY C. ROBINSON, BRANDON J. CROSSLEY, COREY L. HOBBS, JOHNNY T. GAULF, BILLY C. ROWELL, BRATON DANIELSON
