GN Solids Control introduces the ViST Vacuum Shaker Screen, a revolutionary solution designed to optimize drilling operations by enhancing fluid recovery and minimizing waste. This innovative system offers a range of benefits and specifications that cater to various drilling scenarios, both onshore and offshore.
The ViST Pan is ingeniously installed under the last screen or mounted externally, with a suction hose connected to the ViST vacuum unit. Utilizing compressed air from an air compressor or rig air supply, the ViST creates suction on the last screen surface, effectively pulling additional fluid off the cuttings. This process can reduce the liquid content on the cuttings by an impressive 30-50%.
As a result, the ViST maximizes the volume of recovered and reused fluids, providing dryer cuttings. This translates to less drilling waste and more recovered drilling fluids, ultimately saving operators money on drilling fluids and waste management.
Let’s delve into the specifications of the ViST Vacuum Shaker Screen:
