Desander and desilter hydrociclones are device to separate particles from drilling fluid, which is sorted by shale shaker in the first phase of solids control system. You can see in the first picture.

Usage of hydrocyclone

A hydrocyclone is often used to separate drilling cuttings from drilling mud originating at a desander desilter or some other continuous source of pressurized liquid. A hydrocyclone is most likely to be th

e right choice for processes where “lights” (drilling fluids, e.g.) are the greater part of the mixture and where the “heavies” (drilling cuttings e.g.) settle fairly easily.

Oil and natural gas corp. today declared the finding of three oil and gas this month, it has approved that they would invest Rs 3241 crore in developing Cluster-7 marginal fields in the western offshore.

ONGC said it discovered gas in a well drilled in East Godavari district in Andhra Pradesh. Oil and gas in a separate well in shallow waters off the Andhra coast.

Besides oil was discovered in Gujarat block, a company press statement.But ONGC did not give estimation of it.

To invest the discovered oil, the company board approved a capital expenditure of Rs 3241.03 in the first phase of development.

In the first phase, they plan to install four new fixed well platforms and drilling of 20 development wells from which the cumulative production of oil and gas for 16 years. And the production is expected to be 9.73 million tons and 4.52 billion cubic meters.

In their plan, the project is completed in 35 months later, and the first oil is expected in March,2010.

GN solids control, as an leader of the oil and gas associated industries, is very exciting to hear this, as the price of oil and gas is rising all the time, more exploitation is really needed.

As we all know, the urgent demand of oil and gas inspire the exploitation and drilling and also the solids control etc. In GN solids control, we only produce top quality products, and we really welcome the customers all over the world which needs solids control.

The Introduction of Mud Control Equipment

Mud Control Equipment, usually referred as solids control system or solids control equipment. It contains shale shakers, sometime rig shakers, mud cleaners, decanting centrifuge and so on. In G.N. China, we always supply Fluids Processing System Shale Shaker Mud Cleaner Desander  Desilter Decanting Centrifuge Vacuum Degasser, Sand Pump, Mud Gas Separator, Jet Mud Mixer, Mud Agitator, Shear Pump, Submersible, Slurry Pump, Flare Ignition Device, Mud Gun, Mud Tank, Oilfield Equipment Parts,

G.N. China is One Famous Mud Control Equipment Manufacture

GN Solids Control-Tangshan Guanneng Machinery Equipment Co., Ltd. Is a China  leading manufacturer  specializing  in complete line of  equipments for mud control system.GN Drilling mud equipments are widely used in Oil & Gas Drilling , HDD Mud System and Slurry Separation Plant.

If you want to know why is removing solids from drilling mud so important, we can get more questions, but these questions help us to solve this question.

Firstly, we should know where is the solids from.

HA, when we drilling, the drilling mud take them out.

What is the mud’s function?

OK, so we get one more question, what the mud do in solids control system, i.e. what is the mud’s function. You can see How Drilling Mud Work In Solids Control System And Drilling Rig that I write before. I will list the main function again:

Remove cuttings from well
Suspend and release cuttings
Control formation pressures
Seal permeable formations
Maintain wellbore stability
Minimizing formation damage
Cool, lubricate, and support the bit and drilling assembly
Transmit hydraulic energy to tools and bit
Ensure adequate formation evaluation
Control corrosion (in acceptable level)
Facilitate cementing and completion

And then we can find the answer: We must get high quality drilling mud to ensure the drilling process.

COST of drilling mud and environment friendship

But why don’t we produce some new mud, here we go, I have the same question.

The answer is only one word—COST. The cost of produce new drilling mud is higher than this, it is just an economic choice.

Removing solids from drilling mud limit the cost and what’s more important, it’s good to the environment.

Oil and Gas Drilling, Summarize in 2009 All Around the World

1.American Drilling Drops

American drilling drops, due to weak demand and lower prices. The price of oil and gas has fallen to two thirds of their summer 2008 levels. It’s unprofitable for many oil and gas producers. So many of them, cut back on oil and gas production also the investments.

2.Russian Drilling Increases

Oil prices in the second quarter amounted to over $ 60 a barrel. In response to growing international drilling company, Halliburton (HAL), Weatherford International (WFT) and Schlumberger NV(SLB). In particular, the company Halliburton (HAL) reported 27% growth in sales in Russia and a double-digit growth in Mexico, Norway and China.

3.Complex Africa

It helps that the area is geologically complex; with many quarries and offshore oil probably deep underground. Or that many countries have seen deposit wars and unrest. Somalia remains a non-go zone, Ethiopia and the Ogaden region in the east is a violent uprising against insurgents fighting. And during the civil war in Mozambique ended in 1992, it took time for them to fully recover.

Saliva Explorers mainly on prospects for peace in Somalia. Stocks in oil block licenses for two small oil companies, Africa and Oil Range Resources will hold 10 billion barrels. Nobody talks about oil production in Somalia in the near future, but analysts believe that oil companies may be less intimidated by the political risks that would be in the past.

They point to the oil production in southern Sudan, where the risk of a 20-year civil war ended in 2005, to be rekindled.  In any case, there is a feeling that is to discover,  said Aly Khan Satchu, a financial adviser who manages Rich management in Nairobi. The reality and the perception of risk can be reduced.
