GN Oil Drilling Solids Control Equipment

The mud recycler is shipped to Malaysia for recycling drilling mud. It consists of 2 GNPS703 balanced elliptical motion shale shaker, 1ea 1000gpm mud cleaner with 2 desander cone and 12 desilter cone and 1ea GNPS703 shale shaker, the treating capacity of the mud recycler is 1000 gallons per minute. There is a mud mixing hopper and a 6×5 centrifugal pump to drive it. Mud tank attachments including walkway, hand rail, clean gate, butterfly valve, pipelines, stairs, control cabinet, etc.

GN has 3 sets of 1500HP oil drilling rig package for sale, they are located in Beijing warehouse. Each complete set of rig package including: Rig, mud pump, mud tank system, solids control equipments(Derrick) and generators.

The mud tank system including 7 mud tanks for each set,total capacity is 2800bbl, 3 sets totally 8400bbl capacity.

The solids control equipments are Derrick brand, FLC2000 series. They are brand new, just the project is delayed because of some reason, we need to sold them with best discount right now. When the project is re-start, we will make new ones for them.

Hydrocyclone is a device to separate solids and liquids. In oilfield industry, it devided into desander hydrocyclone and desilter hydrocyclone.

Desander cone is 10” cone, it can separate 45 ~76 microns solids, desilter cone is 4” usually, it can separate 20~45 microns. Solids control equipments manufacturers use different desander cone and desilter cone qty to assembly different treating capacity mud cleaner. So mud cleaner is composed of desander cone, desilter cone and shale shaker.  

Fuel tank is used for storage of oil in the rig site, to supply fuel energy for generator or other application in the rig. GN designed fuel tank is with compact structure, reliable function and customized size and color. See the attached photo, it is a fuel tank designed by GN.

The construction of fuel tank is with high standard, it must be filled in a secure way, without sparks, and avoid leakage and limit evaporative emissions.

Below is the photo taken in No Dig show held in Zhengzhou, China at GN booth. There are a lot of professional HDD &CBM drilling contractors from China and abroad visit this show. We take a set of 500gpm HDD mud recycling system to attend the show, it is with a new technology:

Hydraulic lifting device, you do not need a crane in the site, you only use the hydraulic device to lift the mud tank first, then drive the truck on top of the tank, then lower down the lifting device, by this way, you can transport the mud tank easily without rent a crane.

Traditional Mongoose PT shaker screen is made of steel frame, composite screens have the following advantages compared with steel frame screens:

Higher throughput, Longer life, Fewer replacements, Lower cost.

The composite screen’s weight is much lighter than steel frame screen, and same with the original HIFLO screen. But the price is also triple more than the steel frame screens. For some of the clients who care the screen replacement time and service life, composite screen will be the ideal choice.

Shale shaker can be utilized in 2 ways for the rig.

1^st utilization is for rig solids control system as the first separation equipments, by this way, some of the cuttings with drilling fluids will be separated out. 

2^nd utilization is for drilling cuttings separation, they use fine mesh screen to dry the drilling cuttings and separate usable drilling fluids and back to the rig. The drilling cutting shaker also called hi-G shaker.To continue drying the cuttings, you should use cutting dryer.

The left picture is a centrifuge bowl, which is the main component for the drilling fluids decanter centrifuge. It is mainly composed of taper cylinder, straight cone, screw propeller(inside) and collection box. All of them are made of Duplex stainless steel, which is high strength and high corrosion resistance.

And the bearings in big end and small end are made of SKF bearing. Especially the screw propeller of GN centrifuge is protected by Tungsten carbide tiles, not traditional protection way-coated with Tungsten alloy on the surface.

The picture right showed a mini mud cleaner used for Geothermal well drilling. There are 2 mud tanks in the mud system, one is treatment tank, 1 is storage tank. On the 1^st treatment tank, there is a GNZS703 linear motion shale shaker, and 2 mini mud cleaner with desander cone and desilter cone separately.

Mini mud cleaner has larger screen area than desander, desilter with small underflow shaker, so the treating effect is better, and its cost is cheaper than mud cleaner with large underflow shaker. It is the ideal equipments for Geothermal well drilling.

Shear pump is a kind of centrifugal pump, usually it is used together with mud hopper, it can mix effectively and hydrate completely the material added in the drilling fluid, save the mud material , reduce the time of configuration. If there is a pill tank or pill compartment, you must use shear pump with hopper, we called it jet shearing device.

It has better mixing efficiency than jet mud mixer, which is composed of centrifugal pump and mud hopper.
