The shale shaker is the first stage of solids control equipment in drilling mud purification system. It can remove cuttings above 75 μm brought from the drilling well to leave the liquid with smaller particles into the tanks below, which will flow into next grade solids control equipment for further treatment.

The economy of GN Solids Linear Motion Drilling Mud Shale Shaker

GN Solids drilling fluid linear motion shale shaker is especially effective while drilling top-hole sections where heavy and high-volume solids are usually encountered. In these intervals, drilling shale shakers may generate powerful G-forces and its effective vibrating motion can quickly remove the dense solids from screens and particles from wells.

GN Solids is professional manufacturer for complete sets of drilling mud separation and recycling equipment. The conventional equipment like shale shaker, mud cleaner, desander, desilter, vacuum degasser, decanter centrifuge, mud agitator, mud gun, centrifugal pump, screw pump, etc. Here, let’s learn more about desander and desilter.

1. The general installation type and function of desander and desilter

Desander and desilter are solids control equipment with a set of hydrocyclones that separate sand and silt from the drilling mud used on drilling rigs.

They can be installed separately: Desander is installed on top of the mud tank following shale shaker and vacuum degasser, but before the desilter. Desilter is installed on top of the mud tank following Desander. They also can be installed completely: in this case, they are installed on one deck shaker and called mud cleaner or mud conditioner.

Desander removes the abrasive solids from drilling mud which cannot be removed by shale shakers. Normally the solids diameter for desander to be separated would be 45~74μm, and 15~44μm for desilter

GN Solids is professional solids control equipment manufacturer. We can offer shale shaker, mud cleaner, de-sander, de-silter, decanter centrifuge, centrifugal pump, mud agitator, mud tanks etc. Regarding shale shaker, shaker screen is the most important spare parts. The shaker screen should be chosen by mud engineer who is in charge of test the property of drilling mud.

On oil drilling rig site, Hi-G dryer shaker and double deck shaker is widely used for drilling cuttings treatment and recycling. They are both linear motion shale shaker. Some customer do not know the difference of Double deck shale shaker and High-G dryer shaker. As world top solids control and waste management equipment manufacturer, GN Solids can tell you the difference of the 2 types of shale shaker and choose the suitable model for your drilling rig.

Hi-G Dryer Shaker ( recommended model GNZS594, linear motion)

Compared with traditional shale shaker, this model with a Higher G force, can get better vibration screen separation. This model with 4 panel Mongoose shaker screen, can get bigger treating capacity. And the shaker screen is interchangeable with Swaco Mongoose screen, you can get the shaker screen from local Swaco distributor easily.

As it is single deck, relative easy to change shaker screen compared with double deck shale shaker.

Nigeria, as the  world sixth-largest producer of crude oil, the oil exporation and drilling business is very hot. This lead to large demand on equipment used for oil drilling. GN Solids is  China manufacturer focus on solid control and drilling waste management equipment. During the year of 2013, Nigeria market imported 15 sets of decanter centrifuge from GN Solids.

The most popular centrifuge model for Nigeria oil drilling market is GNLW363VFD. Almost every customer like this model because of big treating capacity, higher G-Force, variable frequency drive. So far we have many successful maketing cases to proof GN Solids Centrifuge with reliable working performance.

Hereunder, pls see below chart of different brand comparison.

Any requirement or questions on centrifuge or other solid control equipment , pls contact GN Solids. We will offer you best support and reliable equipment.

Decanter Centrifuge has different functions when it works in different conditions.  As for oil and energy field, we usually use decanter centrifuge for mud system and drilling waste management. GN Solids has many years experience in manufacturering and sales. We have exported many decanter centrifuge to over 60 countries and areas. So far, GN Solids has established some branches to support the prosperous areas, like branches in USA, UAE, Australia, Russia.

Why we should have drill slurry storaged? Mainly it is because of the reasons below:

(1)   Requirement for the carriage and storage of mud on mobile drilling units has increased over the years, it is not convenient to process the drilling mud at the platform, you have to collect the used drill slurry and carry it to drilling fluids plant for process, then recycle the clean drill slurry and disposal the useless cuttings, so that it will not influence the environment.

Drill Slurry Storage

(2)   Clean drill slurry should be storaged for use, for drilling , for mixing , for lubricate the drill bit.

(3)   Useless drill cuttings should be collected and storage, then carried to drilling waste management system for process.

GN solids control manufacture drill slurry storage tank for various application, with necessary mud agitators, mud gun, centrifugal pump and mixing hopper. We can produce mud storage tank together with solids control system or separately. Compared with shaker tank and intermediate tank, the pipeline of storage tank is much simple, if required by the clients, we will divide it into several compartment by clapboard. Sometimes mud ditch is installed on each compartment. Handrails, stairs, cleaning gate, valves are included, but walkways are not included. There is flexible hose connected 2 tanks.

See the photo on the right, it is a mud circulation system with mud gas separator, in oil drilling solids control system, the 1^st phase cleaning equipments of mud circulation system is shale shaker, which is fed the mud from high pressure manifold, the mud gas separator is fed mud from the chock manifold. When much of harmful gas is found during drilling, they close the valve to stop feeding the shale shaker, and open the valve to feed to mud gas separator, and use hundreds of exhaust pipe to transfer the harmful gas from mud gas separator to a place far from well head, and use flare ignition device to burn it. Mud gas separator is not a part of solids control system, GN can manufacture both of them, so we put them together for your convenience.

Mud circulation system with mud gas separator

Mud circulation system is also called mud cleaning system, mud recycling system, solids control system, Usually if a mud circulation system with mud gas separator, it is usually oil & gas drilling or geothermal, it can not be HDD or water well drilling. Mud gas separator is horizontally installed on the skid with the chock manifold on it together, it is easy for transportation.
