Geothermal energy is thermal energy generated and stored in the Earth, means” earth’s heat”. GN solids controldesigned and manufactured mud recycling/ cleaning system can be used not only for oil & gas drilling, horizontal directional drilling, water welling drilling, diamond core drilling, rotery drilling, coal bed methane drilling , workover rig, but can be also used for geothermal well drilling.
They donot have much difference in drilling technology between geothermal well drilling and other energy drilling like oil & gas drilling, the important one is that the high temperature drilling fluids will damage the equipments, so you need a mud cooler to cool the drilling fluids. A mud cooler or a mud cooling system is an effective device to used for cooling the drilling mud in geothermal drilling or hot oil & gas drilling both in onshore and offshore.
GN mud recycling/ cleaning system for geothermal including the equipments below:
1 shale shaker: We adopt stainless steel shaker deck bottom which is Corrosion resistance, and the sealing rubbers on the shaker deck and under the shaker screens are also Corrosion resistance material.
2 hydrocyclones, we have 10inch hydrocyclones for desander and 4 inch hydrocyclones for desilter, the mud should go through mud cooler before feeding to the mud recycling system to avoid to shorter the service life of hydrocyclones and centrifugal pumps.
3 decanter centrifuge: GN solids control brand decanter centrifuge bowl assy is made of duplex stainless steel, and the other fluids touch parts are made of stainless steel 316L, which is Corrosion resistance and better strength.
GN solids control can design customized mud recycling system for geothermal project, with different treating capacity, wire height, mud tank size, qty and volume, what equipments to be used, etc.
