1. Apparatus for a desanding system, the apparatus comprising:
a central valve manifold fluidly coupled to a MultiPhase Desanding (MPD) vessel by a plurality of detachable inlet/outlet connections; and
wherein the detachable connections are arranged to be reattached to the opposing side of the MPD vessel to allow for a uni-sided MPD vessel design which is coupleable to the valve manifold on either of its sides, without the need for integral pipework modifications, and wherein the detachable inlet/outlet connections are integrally mounted on the opposite sides of the MPD vessel such that all of the inlet/outlet connections are symmetrical in orientation, which allows the vessel to be coupled with connections on a second side which is opposite the first side.
