Many of GN clients use Ditch Witch rig and buy mud cleaning system from GN. Unlike other China Solids Control companies, they mainly only focus on oil gas drilling multitank big system, GN Solids Control is the most professional for compact Mud System for HDD or CBM in China.
Ditch Witch complete directional drills package including directional drilling rigs, fluids management system, drill pipe, and integrated electronics that enable the tracker operator to disable power to the drilling unit’s thrust and rotation. Ditch Witch compact directional drilling rigs are ideal for small contractors and designed for easy setup on jobsites once considered too tight for directional drilling.

GN Solids Control design and manufacture complete equipments for HDD (Horizontal
Directional Drilling) and CBM(Coal Bed Methane) drilling mud recycling system of :
150GPM / 350GPM / 500GPM / 800GPM / 1000GPM / 1500GPM /2000GPM.
GN150gpm mud system is specially designed for separating drilling cuttings from drilling mud within no dig processes. Due to the mini container dimensions, the mud recycling separation plant guarantees minimum setup times and an easy transportation. The mini system has been ready for operation on site and GN will dispatch engineer to provide first installation and commissioning to save customer’s time and connection work.

Last month GN shipped 2 sets of 800gpm mud cleaner to a China Government Company for HDD project. They checked our complete mud system taken to CIPPE, and would like to request 2 sets similar one with small changes.
Now we have standard HDD mud system( mud cleaner) with standard equipments and specs for 150gpm, 350gpm, 500gpm, 800gpm, 1000gpm. Clients can make smaller changes according to his separate requirement.
 800gpm mud cleaner for HDD
To make some changes, such system can be used for water well drilling, coal bed methane, geothermal well drilling, diamond drilling, core drilling etc projects. So sometimes clients ask us to make a system with 2 functions( can be used for 2 different projects, and can meet the flow rate requirement for each project). So they can save cost for another set mud cleaner.
How to design the mud tank for the mud cleaner?
1 confirm type of the mud tank, trailer mounted, skid mounted or Hydraulic lift type.
2 confirm the dimension of the mud tank
You need to consider 3aspects, 1 required storage capacity 2 transportation limit in Client’s country 3 international shipments limit, by container, by bulk cargo or by flat rack container.
3 confirm the qty of the mud tank(according to required mud storage capacity and equipments required place)
4 how many compartments for each tank( according to equipments and function of each compartment)
5 layout of the equipments on the tank

How mud tank works, it is a very easy question, but it contains some good questions behind, so we get all these resolved. First we should know the feature of mud tanks, than the components, how it works in the solids control system, what the main fuction is, last but not least how to clean the mud tank.
Mud Tank Feature
A mud tank is an open-top container, typically made of steel, to store drilling fluid on a drilling rig. They are also called mud pits, because they used to be nothing more than pits dug out of the earth. The mud tank is devided into Square tank and Cone-shaped tank according to the shape of tank bottom. The body of the tank is made of welding the steel plate and section, using the flat cone-shape structure or the corrugated structure.
Components of Mud Tank
The mud tank surface and the passage are made of the slipping resistant steel plate and linearity netted steel plate which is produced by the professional factory, the mud tanks are made of the side steel pipe, all of the structure can be folded without barrier and pegged reliably. The surface of tank is equipped with water pipeline for cleaning the surface and equipment on the mud tank, we use soaked zinc processing for the netted steel plate. The ladder is made of Continue reading »

We just finished a proposal for Complete bentonite recycling system for client.
 Bentonite recycling systema client.
Bentonite reycling system for piling work.
I want you to confirm whether the system in your brochure “I attached that please check” is that system can replace the function of the separate parts ,Bentonite Desander 120 mt3/hr,Bentonite mixer 10m3/hr Bentonite return pump 180m3/hr , 25Hp “Diesel motor”Bentonite circulating pump 180m3/hr “Elec. motor” 15kw.
Our proposal for the bentonite recovery system:
The tank are divided into 3 compartmentst,from right to left are A,Shale Shaker compartment B,desander compartment C,Mixing compartment .The Return Pump feed mud to the shaker,and after the treatment of shaker goes to the shaker compartment. Then mud overflow to desander compartment, and then Continue reading »

GN Horizontal directional drilling (HDD) mud Cleaning and regeneration system and equipments become more and more popular,just last week,we got two orders from around clients,1 is from a HDD contractor company,and the other is from a company want to do HDD mud service.
HDD Mud Systems inquiry
 hdd mud cleaning regeneration system
Inquiry on 30/11/2009
GN Solids Control
Currently looking at a project where we need to run pitless directional drilling technology.
What we would like is a HDD mud system that can handle around 300GPM
Mud will be water based, and self mudding, no additives.
System to be built on skids and all drilling mud shakers and pumps etc driven by hydraulics.
If required I can supply all the hydraulics when unit arrives in Australia.
Please quote on 4 of these systems.
Also quote on 6 mud/storage tanks with capacity of 35,000ltrs or more.
Tanks can be no wider than 2.4 mtrs and must be skid mounted.
If I could have an indicative quote by the 2nd December would be appreciated.
Thanks for your time and look forward to your reply,

HDD mud desander is a hycdrocyclone desander separator used in Horizontal directional drilling mud system.
GN design and manufacture mud desander for HDD mud system and oil gas drilling.
HDD( Horizontal directional drilling)
 HDD mud desander
Directional drilling (or slant drilling) is the practice of drilling non-vertical wells. It can be broken down into three main groups: Oilfield Directional Drilling, Utility Installation Directional Drilling ( or HDD., Horizontal Directional Drilling, Directional boring) and in-seam directional drilling (Coal-Bed methane).All of the HDD need mud system.and many of them needs mud desanders to be mounted on the mud tank.
Usually the cone diameter is more than 6″is called Desander, and used as the second-control equipment in drilling operation. We commonly used 10 “and 12″ cones desander to separate solid-phase particle size 47-76μm in the drilling mud.
A mud desander is a hydrocyclone device that removes large drill solids from the whole mud system. The desander should be located downstream of the shale shakers and vacuum mud degassers, but before the desilters or mud cleaners. A volume of mud is pumped into the wide upper section of the hydrocylone at an angle roughly tangent to its circumference. As the mud flows around and gradually down the inside of the cone shape, solids are separated from the liquid by centrifugal forces. The solids continue around and down until they exit the bottom of the hydrocyclone fluids desander (along with small amounts of liquid) and are discarded. The cleaner and lighter density liquid mud travels up through a vortex in the center of the hydrocyclone, exits through piping at the top of the hydrocyclone and is then routed to the mud tanks and the next mud-cleaning device, usually a desilter. Various size desander and desilter cones are functionally identical, with the size of the cone determining the size of particles the device removes from the mud system. Continue reading »
