Solids Control Equipment shipped to India

Recently one batch of solids control equipments are ready for shipment to India drilling company, including mud cleaner, desander, desilter, vacuum degasser, except for the traditional solid scontrol equipments, GN solids control also produce drilling waste management equipments, oil sludge treatment equipments, construction slurry separation equipments, waste water treatment equipments, etc, pls contact with GN solids sales engineer to get a customized solution.


The mud cleaner is used after primary shale shaker and vacuum degasser, GN produce different treating capacity for different requirement, including 2 panel shaker, 3 panel shaker, 4 panel, 5 panel shaker and 6 panel shale shakers, all equipped with GN own brand composite material frame shale shakers, the screen fixing method is by wedge. According to user’s requirement, we can make it tandem shale shaker and triple shale shaker for convenient movement and operation.
The mud cleaner with treating capacity 500gpm, 1000gpm, 1500gpm for option, we will use different quantity desander cone and desilter cone according to your requirement, the desander cone and desilter cone are made of 100% polyurethane material for better wear resistance. The bottom shale shaker is normally same with primary shale shaker with same dimension shaker screen. We can provide CNEX, ATEX, IEC EX explosion proof standard for your option.


The desander unit and desilter unit including 2 types, one is without underflow shaker, the other one is with bottom shaker, both of them can be used separately.


Vacuum degasser produced by GN is a self-contained horizontal type vacuum degasser, it do not need an extra jetting pump, it can be used to separate the gas from the gas cut drilling mud, to prevent the further equipment be damaged by the hazardous gas. Through the suction of the vacuum pump and the separation of the gas-water separator, gas is discharged to a safe area through the exhaust pipe, and mud is discharged from the mud outlet.

An Overview of Solid Vacuum Pumps, Vibrating Screens, Sand Pumps, and Agitator

In the drilling industry, efficient and reliable equipment is essential for the smooth operation of drilling projects. Among the critical components of a drilling system are solid control equipment, which includes solid vacuum pumps, vibrating screens, sand pumps, and agitators. This article aims to provide an overview of the principles behind these devices and their applications in the context of an Asian drilling company.
1.Solid vacuum pumps, also known as vacuum degassers, play a crucial role in the removal of unwanted gas, such as hydrogen sulfide and methane, from drilling fluids. These pumps utilize a vacuum chamber and a rotating impeller to create a low-pressure environment, allowing gas bubbles to escape from the drilling fluid. The degassed fluid is then returned to the active mud system, enhancing its performance and reducing the risk of gas-related hazards.
2.Vibrating screens, commonly referred to as shale shakers, are utilized to separate solid particles from drilling fluids. These screens consist of multiple layers of mesh screens that vibrate in a controlled manner. As drilling fluids pass through the screens, solid particles larger than the mesh openings are retained, while the fluid and smaller particles pass through. This process effectively removes undesirable solids, preventing equipment damage and improving drilling efficiency.
3.Sand pumps are essential components of the solid control system, responsible for transferring drilling fluids with high concentrations of sand and other solids. These pumps are designed to handle abrasive materials and maintain a consistent flow rate. By efficiently transporting the fluid, sand pumps prevent blockages in the drilling system and ensure the continuous circulation of drilling fluids.
4.Agitators, or mud agitators, are used to maintain the homogeneity of drilling fluids by preventing the settling of solids. These devices consist of a motor-driven impeller that rotates within the mud tank, creating a gentle turbulence. By keeping the solids in suspension, agitators prevent the formation of a stagnant layer at the bottom of the tank, ensuring consistent fluid properties throughout the drilling process.
 
In the drilling industry, the effective management of solids in drilling fluids is crucial for the success of drilling operations. Solid control equipment, including solid vacuum pumps, vibrating screens, sand pumps, and agitators, play a vital role in maintaining the quality and performance of drilling fluids. By removing unwanted gas, separating solids, and maintaining fluid homogeneity, these devices enhance drilling efficiency, minimize downtime, and reduce the risk of equipment damage. For the Asian drilling company, investing in reliable and advanced solid control equipment is essential to ensure the smooth and safe operation of their drilling projects.

GN Slurry Dewatering System for Construction Industry to New Zealand

One set of GN Slurry Dewatering System for Construction Industry are ready for delivery to New Zealand. Features of GN slurry dewatering system including:
1) Complete package design to provide Turnkey solutions
2) We have rich field proven experience
3) 5 phase separation system to reach better treatment result
