Below is the photo taken at site of GN oil sludge treatment plant in China. We have 3 standard model of oil sludge treatment plant with treating capacity 1m3/h, 5m3/h, 15m3/h. Also we can make customized design for client’s special requirement. The technical configuration of a standard oil sludge treatment plant including:

1) Oil sludge transfer modular: we use vacuum pump to take the oil sludge from the waste pit to pre-mixing modular.
2) The pre mixing tank equipped with heat lines around the tank wall inside, the operator need to supply hot steam or hot water to the heat lines to remain the oil sludge temperature up to 60℃, it will increase the flowrability of the oil sludge for better separation of solids and easier to be transferred by the submersible slurry pump to shale shaker modular. The operator should add chemicals according to the oil sludge material conditions, the purpose to add demulsifiers is to make it easily break from solids, so that the further process shale shaker and decanter centrifuge can separate the oil easily. The mud agitator will mix the chemical with oil sludge evenly.

3) The shale shaker modular will separate the coarse solids from the oil sludge, the solids will be collected by waste container, the shale shaker is closed by cover to prevent it from splash, and internal spray system to flush the screens in case of blinding the screens because of high viscosity. The oil sludge will drop down into the mud tank and transfer to decanter centrifuge modular by screw pump.
4) The decanter centrifuge working together with dewatering unit will separate the fine solids from the oil sludge, the fluids will flow to the intermediate tank , then the diaphragm pump will transfer the mixture fluids to 3 phase centrifuge to separate oil from water.

Last week we shipped one batch of centrifugal pump and decanter centrifuge to our Russia client, this is the repeat order from our client. The centrifugal pump is a multi function pump which can be widely used for oil and gas drilling solids control system and all the other solids and liquid separation system. In solids control system, centrifugal pump can be used as desander and desilter feeding pump, vacuum degasser jet pump, trip pump for trip tank, mixing pump, charging pump of mud pump, transfer pump.

GN brand centrifugal pump features:
1） The wear parts-impeller, pump casing is made of wear resistant material: hard ductile iron alloy,which is much stronger than grey steel, grey steel has been widely used by many other centrifugal pump manufacturers in China, it is important to know the materials to be used clearly.
2） All the pump parts are 100% interchangeable with world famous brand centrifugal pump, we can provide interchangeable spare parts for client’s old centrifugal pump
3） Mechanical seal for longer working life.
4） All bearings from FAG for reliable operation, not cheap brand bearing.
5) The skid for supporting pump and motor is made from casting instead of welding to provide reliable operation.

The decanter centrifuge will be used to treat drilling fluids, to separate the fine solids from the drilling fluids and reused to prepare for new drilling fluids for recovery. The decanter centrifuge can be installed with different speed pulley for different application, when 2200rpm pulley is used, it can be used for barite recovery, when 3200rpm pulley is used, it will be used for low gravity solids separation.
The impeller of screw is protected by tungsten carbide tiles for longer working life and repairable, the bearing is made of SKF brand, the bowl material is made of duplex stainless steel 2304.

Recently 2 packages of triple shale shaker and 2 sets of mud cleaner are ready for shipment in our factory. The technical configuration of triple shale shaker is as below:

1) 3 units of GNZS594G-SHBF shale shaker which is equivalent with world famous model shale shaker, each shaker with 2 ea DGMS & IEC EX & ATEX approval vibration motor, each with 2.5HP power to provide high G force up to 7.5G. The shale shaker can be widely used for Suitable for Oil Based mud and cuttings, Water Based mud and cuttings, Synthetic based mud and cuttings, oily sludge. The shaker screen is durable composite material frame shaker screens with dimension 585x1165mm, the total screen area is 2.73m2.

The shale shaker is dual motion shale shaker, one is linear motion shale shaker with max 140m3/h capacity, the other one is progressive elliptical motion with max 100m3/h, there is control on the starter to change the vibration motion. The starter with Cast aluminum Control Cabinet, the electrical components are from Siemens/ Schneider/ABB brand for convenient outsourcing.
2) Triple shaker skid with 2 ways slide gate as drain port, during shipment, the 3 shakers, possem belly and skid will be disassembly to suit for the container loading.
3) Possem belly with slide gate for convenient operation
The mud cleaner with the same bottom shale shaker and same dimension shaker screens, the top hydrocyclones frame installed with 3 nos of 12 inch desander cone, 20 nos of 4 inch desilter cone with total treating capacity of drilling fluids over 1500gpm. The 20 nos of 4 inch desilter cone in 10 sets. The cone material is 100% polyurethane for longer working life.
This is special designed for our customer’s requirement, we have standard triple shale shaker and mud cleaner as GNZS594F-SHBF and GNZJ594F-3S16N if no special requirement.
