Sand Trap Compartment In Mud Tanks

A sand trap is the setting compartment located downstreatm of the  shale shakers. It should be the only settling compartment and preferably should not be used in closed loop system. It’s main function is to remove large solids that might plug the downstream hydrocyclones.. With the fine screen capabilities of today’s shale shakers, the sand trap mainly serves as a back up should the shakers be bypasssed or operated with torn screen.

Cuttings Discharge Pump ( cdp )

The cuttings discharge pump (cdp) is a safe and efficient vacuum system designed to collect drill solids on a continuous basis and discharge them into drilling waste containers on the rig.

This application similar with augers but more convenient. Benefits:

1) Continuous vacuum collection and discharge of drill cuttings

2) High containment capacity due to the telescopic arm suppling cuttings to a max of eighteen drilling waste containers

3) Low resource requirement due to the arm being operated by one person only

Shale Shaker Screens

Shale shakers removes solids by processing solid laden drilling fluid over the surface of a vibrating screen. Particles smaller than the screen openings pass through the screen along with the liqid phase of drilling fluids.

Larger particles and trapped finer particles are separated into the shaker overflow for discard

GN Solids supply several screens for GN brand shaker and international brand shaker.

Features Of Drilling Waste Container

Drilling Waste Container (DWC) is designed to hold drilling cuttings. Main features as bellow:

1) The container is fully enclosed within a lifing frame

2) A large sealing door aids filling and emptying

3) The containers can be provided with certified lifting slings included

4) The discharge door has an internal seal which is secured by clasps to avoid spillage during transportation

GN Solids build a complete line of solids control equipment and drilling waste container
