SOLIDS-CONTROL-EQUIPMENT-PACKAGE-SOLD-TO-EUROPE

GN is a well-known brand from China, its full company name is HeiBei GN Solids Control Co.,Ltd which locadted in No.3 Industry Road, Dachang Chaobai River Development Area,Langfang, China; We are known around the world for unique innovation without compromise, sophistication while maintaining user simplicity, and superb service to our extremely wide customer base.specializing in supplying solids control& waste management equipment to the global market.

Mud Gas Separator is commonly called a gas-buster or poor boy degasser. It captures and separates the large volumes of free gas within the drilling fluid. If there is a “kick” situation, this vessel separates the mud and the gas by allowing it to flow over baffle plates. The gas then is forced to flow through a line, venting to a flare. A “kick” situation happens when the annular hydrostatic pressure in a drilling well temporarily (and usually relatively suddenly) falls below that of the formation, or pore, pressure in a permeable section downhole, and before control of the situation is lost.

It is always safe to design the mud/gas separator that will handle the maximum possible gas flow that can occur.

degasser is a device used in the upstream oil industry to remove dissolved and entrained gases from a liquid. In drilling it is used to remove gasses from drilling fluid which could otherwise form bubbles. In a produced water treatment plant it is part of the process to clean produced water prior to disposal.

An agitator is a device or mechanism to put something into motion by shaking or stirring. There are several types of agitation machines, including washing machine agitators (which rotate back and forth) and magnetic agitators (which contain a magnetic bar rotating in a magnetic field).

GN-SOLIDS-CONTROL-EQUIPMENT-DECANTER-CENTRIFUGE-CUTTING-DRYER

GN is a well-known brand from China, its full company name is HeiBei GN Solids Control Co.,Ltd which locadted in No.3 Industry Road, Dachang Chaobai River Development Area,Langfang, China; We are known around the world for unique innovation without compromise, sophistication while maintaining user simplicity, and superb service to our extremely wide customer base.specializing in supplying solids control& waste management equipment to the global market.

Decanters are widely used in the biotech industry to carry out solid-liquid separations. Achieving adequate separation in the decanters reduces the amount of energy, and therefore money, required to treat the reject water in the waterline, however this is at the cost of adding chemicals to the decanters. At the current point in time, it is deemed unfeasible to control the settings of the decanters based on a cost-benefit analysis due to the complexity of accounting for savings in the waterline, so the problem is reduced to achieving decent separation with the necessary operational conditions as determined by the operators. Running decanters with a highly variable feed composition in a satisfactory manner is a task for operators who manually carry out flocculation tests to estimate the proper chemical dosage at a given point in time. This procedure is labour intensive and cumbersome. It also has a strong time component i.e delay between the result of the flocculation essay and the need of deciding for a dosage strategy. In order to circumvent this limitation, we developed a mathematical model based on on-line sensor data to estimate dosing of polymer based on upstream process information. 

Here’s how decanter centrifuges are utilized in this industry:

  1. Drilling Mud Treatment: During the drilling process, a drilling mud or drilling fluid is used to lubricate the drill bit, cool the drilling equipment, carry rock cuttings to the surface, and maintain pressure in the wellbore. Decanter centrifuges are employed to separate solids (drill cuttings) from the drilling mud, allowing for the reuse of the mud in the drilling process, reducing waste, and maintaining drilling efficiency.
  2. Oil and Gas Well Cleanup: After drilling, oil and gas wells often produce a mixture of oil, gas, water, and solids. Decanter centrifuges are used to separate these components, particularly to remove solids and water from the crude oil or natural gas. This separation process improves the quality of the oil or gas, making it suitable for further processing or transportation.
  3. Produced Water Treatment: During the production of oil and gas, large volumes of water are co-produced along with hydrocarbons. This water, known as produced water, contains contaminants such as oil, grease, and solids. Decanter centrifuges are utilized to separate these contaminants from the produced water, allowing for the water to be either reused in operations (e.g., for injection into wells for pressure maintenance) or safely discharged into the environment.
  4. Refinery Operations: In downstream processes, such as refining crude oil into various petroleum products, decanter centrifuges are used for various applications. These include the separation of water and solids from crude oil before it enters refining processes, the recovery of catalysts used in refining processes, and the treatment of wastewater generated during refining operations.
  5. Environmental Remediation: Decanter centrifuges are also employed in environmental remediation efforts in the oil and gas industry. For example, they can be used to treat contaminated soil or water by separating pollutants from the environmental matrices.

Overall, decanter centrifuges play a vital role in the oil and gas industry by facilitating the separation of different components, improving efficiency, reducing waste, and ensuring compliance with environmental regulations.

In the context of diamond core drilling, decanter centrifuges are crucial equipment used for solids control and fluid management. Here’s how they are relevant:

Solids Control: Diamond core drilling involves the extraction of cylindrical rock samples using a diamond-tipped drill bit. During this process, drilling mud or drilling fluid is circulated to lubricate the drill bit and carry the rock cuttings to the surface. Decanter centrifuges are employed in solids control systems to separate the solid particles (drill cuttings) from the drilling mud, ensuring that the mud can be reused in the drilling process.

Fluid Recovery: Decanter centrifuges are efficient in recovering valuable fluids from the drilling cuttings. By separating the solids from the liquid phase of the drilling mud, they help in reclaiming valuable drilling fluid, which can be reused in subsequent drilling operations. This not only reduces the cost of purchasing new drilling fluid but also minimizes waste disposal and environmental impact.

Cuttings Dewatering: Decanter centrifuges can also aid in dewatering drill cuttings. By subjecting the cuttings to high centrifugal forces, the liquid phase is separated from the solids, resulting in drier cuttings. This dewatering process can significantly reduce the volume of waste material that needs to be disposed of, thereby lowering disposal costs and environmental footprint.

Efficient Operation: Diamond core drilling operations often require continuous and reliable solids control to maintain drilling efficiency and protect downhole equipment. Decanter centrifuges are designed to operate continuously, providing uninterrupted solids separation and fluid clarification, thus contributing to the overall efficiency and productivity of diamond core drilling operations.

In summary, decanter centrifuges are essential equipment in diamond core drilling operations, facilitating solids control, fluid recovery, and cuttings dewatering. Their role in separating solids from drilling mud helps to maintain drilling efficiency, reduce costs, and minimize environmental impact.
