Mud cleaner

The choice making of use mud cleaner that contain desanders, desilters and shale shaker is concern of operation cost and the space allowed for the machinery.  It serves the purpose to remove the needed-remove solids in the drilling mud to keep the mud in high performance as needed. It is placed after shale shaker and vacuum degasser filtering the mud after initial filtering large solids and removes the gas that contain in the mud.

Turn the motor on and start pay attention on the rotation direction of the motor.  The motor need to be rotated in opposite directions and need to be marked on the motor direction after the confirmation of the check.  The operator at this stage need to pay attention on the sound that is from the machinery and if unusual sounds appear it needs turn off the machine and check the motors and tightness of the screens.

Operator need to perform routine check of motor bearing, the seals and lubrication of every moving part and fill the oils if necessary.  Such routine check need to perform after intense use of machinery to prevent structural damage that will most likely put the cleaning mud operation in stop.

To keep costs of operation in consist, shaker screen need to be flushed to clean the surface.  In some case of high viscosity of cleaning drilling mud, it also need to check the damage of the mesh as well after the flushing it with water.

Operator need to stop the feeding of the sand pump and let the shale shaker idle for period of times, rinse with water and timely clean the surface of the screen then stop the shale shaker motor.

Like the shaker screen, hydrocyclone is another replacement parts that need the cleaning like the screen after each shift of use.  This check to see if large objects are causing jamming that leads to shorted the use life of hydrocyclone.

GN Solids Control is a world famous company and brand in the solids control and waste management industry. Now its business range spanning from shale shakers, mud cleaners, decanter centrifuge, cutting dryer, vacuum degasser and so on. GN could be your one stop shop in the solids control and drilling waste management area. Its product application covers from oil and gas drilling, HDD and CBM drilling, bored pile and TBM drilling.

Today I will introduce two more naming rules to you, mud gas separator and screw conveyor. As these two products are widely used in the oil and gas drilling system, there are more and more customers showing their interest in them. So understanding the naming rules is very important and could help you select the products effectively and efficiently. Let’s start with the mud gas separator: GNZYQ1000A,GN means the company name in short. ZYQ means thename of mud gas separator in Chinese in short. 1000 means inner diameter of the mud gas separator is 1000 mm.A means this product is the first generation, and in future, GN will make more upgrades and improvements for the mud gas separator, there will be B, C etc. and more versions coming out. The mud gas separator is also called “poor boy degasser” which means it’s more economic than the vacuum degasser, but it’s just working under the mechanical crashing power to separate the cut gas from the mud without the vacuum pump.

Next let’s go to the screw conveyor: GNSC14A-24,GN means the company name in short, SC means the product name screw conveyor in short.14means the diameter is 14 inch. A means it is the first generation. 24 means the length of the screw conveyor is 24 feet. Screw conveyor is widely used in the drilling wastemanagement system to transfer the cuttings for final disposal.

That’s the basic introduction of the naming rules formud gas separator and screw conveyor. Hopefully it will be useful to you.We will try our best to assist your business to be successful. Welcome to visit www.gnsolidsamerica.com and please send your inquiries to USA@gnsolidscontrol.com

GN Solids Control is The far east leading brand of solids control equipment supplier with basic in Beijing, Houston and also Russia. And each month all of us export lots of mud devices for solids control as well as drilling waste management or even mud system to in a different country client and domestic consumers. Recently our company is fully entertained because of lots of project tools are ready for dispatch.

1) Several centrifugal pump for Nigeria client
Nigeria have a lot of oil drilling rigs in addition to oil blocks. Oil sources is rich there and have lots of clients coming from Nigeria who bought decanter centrifuge, drilling waste management straight cuttings dryer, solids control shale shaker, replacement shaker screen etc . from each of our company—GN Solids Control. Just lately, we got some small get from Nigeria who wants to change their old centrifugal sends. And we sell some models of good pump and mud agitator to them.

2) several sets of mud agitator for Egypt clients
The consumer bought this agitator is actually GN old client who have already bought 2 models 500gpm mud cleaning system for their HDD drilling. These are really happy about the mud system high quality and the dependable working performance. The 500gpm mud system is equipped with some panel shale shaker in addition to 4 panel mud cleaner. The shaker screen is actually composite material shaker screen, replacement for Swaco Mongoose shaker screen, with much better performing performance, longer lifetime and fewer maintenance. We also have additional treating capacity mud system for option. Like 200gpm mud system, 800gpm mud system and 1000gpm mud system

3) 2 models shale shaker for UAE client
Good maintenance can help you lots of cost, than shopping for new products. We give train to be able to client and let them to utilize GN equipment to greatest. And recently, we have 1 client wanting to replace the previous shakers for about 3 years. Which is really good. The shale shaker is to update the mud system the client already have over 2 years. The client buy two sets new shale shaker to update their older mud cleaning system and this is usually relative lower cost to continuing the new project. Because of the lower market, many clients want to take budget, save cost is to do more project. We highly recommend client to renew the mud system with new tools, new shaker, new centrifugal pump, new mud cleaner and new agitator. Commonly, the mud tanks last longer time if the regular maintenance is doing each time soon after use.

Desilter, which is
another kind of solids control equipment for treating the drilling fluid. In
this article, we will mainly introduce the Desilter made by GN Solids Control. 

Actually compared
with the desander, the desilter has the same working principle, similar
structure and different configurations for customer option.

Usually desilter
is matched together with the shale shaker and desander and used for doing the
3rd-stage separation with the drilling fluid. 

Most of the big
sizes of drilling cuttings over 40μm will be separated after being treated by the shale
shaker and desander. In next step the drilling fluid goes into the desilter and
most of the solid particles over 20μm are separated out from the fluid and the drilling
fluid become much more clear. 

The main part of desilter
is also the hydrocyclones, but the size is different with the desander’s. Each
hydrocyclone used on GN’s Desilter are 4 inches and its standard treatment
capacity is 20m³/h. Usually 8 units, 12 units or 16 units
of hydrocyclone are standard configuration on GN’s Desilter, the corresponding standard
treatment capacity is 120m³/h, 240m³/h and 360m³/h. It is also customized and the customer could choose
specific quantity of hydrocyclone for different treatment capacity. 

In most of the
time the desilter is recommend by GN Solids Control to be combined together with
1 shale shaker (the desilter & shale shaker AIO), as the separated solids
particles could be further dried by through the shale shaker’s screen and the drying
effect could be better, especially for the weighted drilling mud.

Sometimes,
the customer needs the desilter, shale shaker and desander to be combined together
and turned into an all in one machine because of being limited to the space,
Now GN has the “Mud Cleaner” for customer option.

Different
customers have different requirements with the desander, like different
treatment capacities, different configurations and so on, in this article we
will mainly talk about the different types of desanders made by GN Solids
Control Company
for customer option. 

1. Firstly we will
talk about the different options of treatment capacity with the Desander. 

As we know, the
main part of 1 desander is the hydrocyclone. For GN’s desander, each
hyrocyclone is 10inch and the treatment capacity is 120m³/h. So the quantity of the hydrocyclone is
optional based on customer’s requirements. Such as below,

2. Sometimes, the
customer needs compact structure as limited by floor space but complete
functions, GN could also provide different corresponding configurations for
customer option, the details are as below,

2.1. Desander
& Shale Shaker AIO
(all in one) machine.

The desander could be
combined together with different types of shale shaker.

·For the Oil & Gas Drilling with small
rig, CBM drilling, HDD, water well drilling and so on, customer could choose
the desander combined together with a mini shale shaker to get an economic
choice and acceptable drying solids;

·When customer needs the big treatment with
compact structure, like for the Oil & Gas Drilling with big rig, large HDD
rig, Tunneling Boring Machine and so on, the densander combined together with a
big shale shaker is available. 

2.2. Desander
& Desilter & Shale Shaker AIO
(all in one) machine

As we introduce it
before, this machine is also called “Mud Cleaner”. Different types of desander,
desilter and shale shaker are combined together and many different
configurations are gotten for customer option. The details are as
below,

Besides, while the
3 equipment are combined together, but they all work independently and the
desander and desilter are demountable when customer only needs the shaker.
