If you have over 30 years experience for drilling, you will know, what is real required and what is not for close loop mud system. Sometimes people just seek for unrealistic specifications, which did not mean good for the operation. GN solids control would like to share your new idea about the drilling solids control, and put your idea into realization. We have the ability to design as your layout, no matter  you choose us as the complete system manufacturer or not.

Recently drilling has been changed a lot, the old experience did not work, people has their own new design. “Zero discharge mud systems” are urgently required because of the environment protection. Auger box, screw conveyor can be used to collect the drilling cuttings from shale shaker, desander, desilter, mud cleaner, dewatering unit and centrifuge, then transfer them to a catch pit for later processing. In some development company where the government did not have strict regulation on environment protection, they even do not use any mud system, and let the drilling fluids discharged directly. They may face big problem in the future.

Dewatering unit is required to work together with the system, it can make further process of the fluids after processed by centrifuge after the well is finished.

The mud tank is designed similar to 40 feet standard container, it is more convenient to transport in any countries in the world. All the lifting device, dimension, skid is same with container, and we put GN solids control equipments on top of it.

If you required Close Loop mud System for oil & gas drilling, pls contact GN solids control, our service including design, consultant, manufacture and shipment.

 

The mud tanks manufactured by GN solids control have been sold to more than 48 countries in the world, the application including oil & gas drilling solids control system, mud mixing system, mud storage, HDD mud recycling system, mining slurry separation system, etc.

Our mud tanks are including the following parts:

1 skid mounted mud tank

2 various pipelines

3 butterfly valve, flange, union, soft connector

4 Handrail, walkway, stairs, inner ladder

Now we will introduce various pipelines of mud tank system. Take a ZJ20 drilling rig solids control system as example.

1 mud cleaner pipelie

2 Mud pump suction pipeline

3 Mud mixing and weighting pipeline

4 overflow pipeline

5 Heating pipeline( only for low temperature drilling environment, such as Russia)

6 water manifold

7 Mud gun manifold

There is mud gun manifold for the whole system, and the mud gun involves all the tanks. Mediume pressure pipes connect tanks, which is sealed, reliable and convenient for installation and uninstall. The output manifold of mud pumps supply the entire mud manifold with mud fluid. Users can add input joint for mud medium pressure pipeline at the position showing in the figure.

JBQ mud agitator is a part of solid control system of mud tank, which is mainly used in agitating and blending drilling fluid so as to control the depositions of solid particles in its tank cycling system and keep the mud property of circulation stable and mixture uniform.

GN solids control manufacture drilling mud agitator with various models, different agitator use different motor. The model we have now including JBQ5.5(7.5HP motor), JBQ 7.5(10HP motor), JBQ11(15HP motor), JBQ15(20HP motor), JBQ22(30HP).

Mud agitator is consist of gear box and motor, shaft, impeller, stabilizer( option), etc. Motor is a main part of drilling mud agitator. Usually we use explosion proof motorYB2 series for mud agitator.

The detailed model is:

5.5KW agitator motor:  YB2-132S-4

7.5KW  agitator motor    YB2-132M-4

11KW   agitator motor YB2-160M-4

15KW  agitator motor       YB2-160L-4
