GN500 GPM Drilling Waste Liquid And Waste Cutting Treatment System

GN is one of the few company who can design and manufacture the 500 GPM drilling waste liquid and waste cutting treatment system.Because very few companies manufacture the vertical cutting dryer and big bowl big volume decanter centrifuges.

Part I, Drilling Waste Liquid Treatment

The liquid transport trailer with the waste liquids would unload directly over a 3 panel scalping shaker(GNZS853) mounted on top of a 250 bbl tank (#1) with at least 2 mix agitators in the tank and possibly some gun lines to circulate liquid in corners of tank.

Out of tank #1 need a centrifugal pump(50HP) to feed a desander cleaner (GNZJ852-1S)cone at 500 gal/min with 2 panel shaker mounted on top of 150 bbl tank(#2). 2 agitators in tank #2 and possibly some gun lines to circulate liquid in corners of tank.

Out of tank #2 need a centrifugal pump(50HP) to feed desilter cleaner(GNZJ852-8N) cones at 500 gal/min with 2 panel shaker mounted on top of 150 bbl tank(#3). 2 agitators in tank #3.Out of tank #3 need a centrifuge feed pump to feed a VFD controlled centrifuge(GNLW553VFD) mounted on top of 150 bbl tank(#4). 1 agitator in tank #4.Out of tank #4 need a centrifuge feed pump to feed a VFD controlled centrifuge mounted on top of 150 bbl tank(#5). 1 agitator in tank #5.

From tank #5 liquid will be pumped with a centrifuge feed pump thru a polymer injection/emulsion break chemical injection system to various oil/water separator tanks.

Part 2: Drilling Waste Cuttings Treatment.

Drill cuttings off the primary shaker(Solids Control of the Rig) when brought to site, will be sent to the 2 cuttings dryers(GNCD930) mounted up on a stand to allow front end loader to remove solids from under dryer. Cuttings will be fed to dryers 2 feed augers, the liquids from the dryer will be dropped into 100bbl tank (#6) with 1 agitator. Liquids from the 100bbl tank will be recirculated to dryer and pumped (with a separate centrifuge feed pump) to a high speed VFD controlled centrifuge for processing and oil stored in 300bbl tank(#7) below centrifuge.

From tank #7 liquid will be pumped with a centrifuge feed pump thru a polymer injection/emulsion break chemical injection system to various oil/water separator tanks.

From Wiki about Drilling cutting:

Drill cuttings[1] are the broken bits of solid material removed from a borehole drilled by rotary, percussion, or auger methods. Boreholes drilled in this way include oil or gas wells, water wells, and holes drilled for geotechnical investigations or mineral exploration.

The drill cuttings are commonly examined to make a record (a well log) of the subsurface materials penetrated at various depths. In the oil industry, this is often called a mud log.

Drill cuttings are produced as the rock is broken by the drill bit advancing through the rock or soil; the cuttings are usually carried to the surface by drilling fluid circulating up from the drill bit. Drill cuttings are separated from the drilling fluid by shale shakers (for liquid drilling fluid), or by cyclone separators (for air drilling). In cable-tool drilling, the drill cuttings are periodically bailed out of the bottom of the hole. In auger drilling, cuttings are carried to the surface on the auger flights.

Drill cuttings management solution

The Drill cuttings Management solution is designed to help maximize compliance with the waste management hierarchy principles, as well as ensuring that local regulations and standards are complied with. Ultimately, disposal will be required in all cases, be it solids and / or liquids.

drill cutting management solution

Drill cuttings management solution usually including but not limit to:

1 collection of drill cuttings

There are various ways to collect the drill cuttings from the solids control system( shale shaker, mud cleaner, decanter centrifuge). Firstly you need a cuttings blowing pump to blow the drill cuttings and waste produced by centrifuge from a collection place in the site to a drill waste storage tank or directly to a transferred truck or boat, they called it ”bulk tank”. Then Screw conveyors are used to transport drill cuttings and centrifuge waste from one location on the rig to another, probably to a vertical cutting dryer in the drilling waste management system.

2 Storage of drill cuttings

A Drilling Waste Container is to storage drill cutting, centrifuge waste and pit cleaning wastes generated during drilling operations. The drilling waste containers are typically transported to a treatment and disposal site for further processing.

After the drilling waste is treated by vertical cutting dryer, the cuttings will be collected by a small waste container and be transported to other place, the fluids are pumped to high speed decanter centrifuge for further process.

Drilling Cuttings treatment in Brazil

The drilling fluids with the cuttings from the well are discharged to a rig shale shaker where the cuttings are separated from the drilling fluid. The separation step does not completely remove drilling fluid from the cuttings, some drilling fluid and additives remain on the drill cuttings.

drilling cutting treatment equipments

Then such drilling cuttings with drilling fluids will be dropped into a GN drilling waste system, through physical way to separate the usable drilling fluids with unusable drilling cuttings. For example, hi-G shale shaker to separate larger drilling cuttings, then verti-cutting dryer to separate drilling cuttings with oil less than 5%.The usable drilling fluids are treated by decanter centrifuge, then clean drilling fluids and water will back to rig again.

The cuttings separated by verti-cutting dryer with less than 5% oil can not be drain off directly, it may pollute the environment. We must use chemical way to continue the treatment.

Drilling cuttings treatment method:

Thermal desorption, re-injection, incineration and solidification.These methods have been applied in the site, they may have their own advantages and disadvantages.

Thermal desorption:

use of the patented Porcupine Processor to remove all water and oil, leaving a residual total petroleum hydrocarbon on cuttings of less than 1%.

Re-injection :

Top 5 Dredger manufacturer in the world

What is Dredger?

Simply speaking, Dredger (Also called dredge) isa vessel used for dredging. It is used to excavate and remove material from the bottom of a body of water. For example, a scoop attached to the end of a rope or pole by which a man can draw sediments up from the bottom of a pond is a dredger. Developing this idea further, a motorized crane equipped with a drag bucket or clamshell (grabber) that is used to scoop material from the bottom of a body of water is also a dredger. The crane could be located on the bank, or perhaps mounted on a barge. If the crane is mounted on a barge, the entire vessel is referred to as a dredger.

What is Dredging?

Dredging is an excavation activity in which materials are recovered from beneath the water’s surface. The purpose is generally to gather bottom sediment and either dispose it at a different location or use these sediments in various products, e.g. sand and gravel is used in concrete mixtures.

GN solids control design and produce dredging slurry separation system, and we cooperate with dredger manufacturer all of the world. Some of our DSS system has worked successfully in the site with dredger.

Decanter Centrifuge Rental in Brazil

Decanter centrifuge can be used as 2 functions: one is to used in drilling mud solids control system, to recycle drilling fluids and get barite. The other one is to used in drilling waste management system, to treat the drilling waste and recycle drilling fluids. GN decanter centrifuges are working in many sites in Brazil for such purpose.

Other related equipments with centrifuge:

In drilling fluids solids control system, centrifuge is used after desander and desilter, when they need to separate fine solids.

In drilling waste management system, centrifuge is used after cutting dryer, when they need to recycle the clean drilling fluids and drain off the cuttings. Sometimes it is used after hi-G shaker, it depends on the drilling mud type.

GN can provide both equipments related to the centrifuge.

People rent centrifuge because of the high cost of US centrifuge, also because of the maintenance cost, sometimes clients only want to use the centrifuge for a short while, so centrifuge rental is economic for them. But most of the clients rent centrifuge because they have Continue reading “Decanter Centrifuge Rental in Brazil”

Workover parts price

Workover is used to refer to any kind of oil well intervention involving invasive techniques, such as wireline, coiled tubing or snubbing. More specifically though, it will refer to the expensive process of pulling and replacing a completion.

Workover Rig is available for both onshore as well as offshore. Before any workover, the well must first be killed. Since workovers are long planned in advance, there would be much time to plan the well kill and so the reverse circulation would be common. The intense nature of this operation often requires no less than the capabilities of a drilling rig.

Workover parts may include the following parts basically:

Workover rig, Manifold, triplex mud pump, mud system, BOP, Top drives, Blow out preventers.

Workover mud system:

GN solids control produced workover mud system for 250HP, 350HP, 450HP, 550HP, 650HP,750HP workover rigs. They have been applied in more than 60 countries in the world. Some clients may get the mud system from rig package supplier. But a much sane choice is to buy the mud system separately from solid scontrol Continue reading “Workover parts price”

Oilfield drilling waste disposal solution

GN solids control provide solution for oilfield drilling waste disposal.

Oil and gas wells cannot be drilled without creating waste. However, with good waste management practices, the amount of waste can be reduced. By far, the greatest volume of waste generated in the drilling process is drilled cuttings. The first step is to use good solids control equipment, such as the GN linear motion shale shaker, mud cleaner, and decanter centrifuges.

When operated properly, the solids control equipment removes drilled solids from the mud, maintaining the rheology and thereby decreasing the need for dilution. Good solids control equipmentoperated properly also yields drier solids. Both decreased dilution and drier solids reduces waste and increase profits for the operator.

Vertical cutting dryer

Slurry pump price

What is slurry pump?

A Slurry pump is a type of centrifugal pump in physics principle that increases the pressure of liquid and solid particle mixture, through centrifugal force (a rotating impeller) and converts electrical energy into slurry potential and kinetic energy.

slurry pump
slurry pump

There are 2 kinds of slurry pump, horizontal type and vertical type, for vertical type pump, there are submersible slurry pump and underwater pump. Submersible slurry pump is widely used for drilling fluids transferring, underwater pump is used for fluids transfer. Horizontal slurry pump is also used for drilling slurry transfer, just the installation method is different to meet different mud tank size.

What is vertical slurry pump?

Vertical slurry Pump is the cantilever pump structure of single stage and single suction, with the bearing housing, supporting, intermediate pipe connecting the pump hydraulic components, the water is discharged out from the drain pipe parts, pump impeller is for semi-shrouded with the agitating vane on the vane extended, the main characteristic of this pump is the underwater pump shaft parts have enough rigidity, the impeller and pump shell have no bearings, no shaft seal, which can transport the greater medium of solid particles. The length of inserting the water by pump is between 800 and 2000, the suction pipe can be matched in case of need. Continue reading “Slurry pump price”
