GNGH Solidification System for Africa

In the
past several years, each year, GN Solids Control brought to the oil and gas
industry some new and useful solutions for bettering the world. Year 2013, the
new design of decanter centrifuge, with two motors on one side and positive
pressurized control panel, year 2014, the improved vertical cuttings dryer
which could be used for both OBM and WBM, year 2015, a new solution GNGH10 and
GNGN15 was designed and put into use, it is the final treatment of the drilling
cuttings.

Until
now, since the first set of GNGH10 Solidification unit was finished in GN
Solids Control’s yard and transported to the client’s place in domestic China,
GN has sold several of that. and some of GN old clients who are satisfied with
GNLW series decanter centrifuges and GN solids control systems are considering
to use the solidification unit in near future. This solidification unit is purchased
by a client from French and this is for his project in Africa. Recently, lots
of African countries came to aware of the necessary to protect the environment
from being polluted by the drilling cuttings.

What is
solidification unit?

The
solidification unit is used for future treating the solids discharge from the
solids control system’s desander and desilter cones and the centrifuge of the
solids control system. Also, the solids phase discharged by the shale shaker
could enter the solidification unit after being treated by the GNCM waste
management system. By using material like cement and other material, the
liquidate component in the drilling cuttings which may permeate into the soil
or underground water are forged into some hard particles and become less
liquidate. Then they could be used in some other ways like building the road or
so.

In a
word, the solidification unit is an economic and practical solution for waste
management of drilling solids cuttings.
