Dual Centrifuge mud system for CPP

GN Solids Control have many
production project for CPP from year of 2010. CPP is the largest HDD contractor
from China and engaged in China and overseas market. GN Solids Control compact
mud system and centrifuge is also working in many different jobsite with CPP
teams.

Beginning of this year, we got 4 sets 500gpm mud recycling system for
CPP. Different from former system configurations, this time CPP require 2 sets
variable speed middle speed centrifuge for each system. In this case, they can
recover the barite from used drilling fluids fast. The centrifuge is GNLW452
big bowl middle speed centrifuge with variable speed control panel to adjust
the speed flexible.

Except for 2 sets middle speed centrifuge,
other solids control equipment including:

1) 1 set Mud desanding cleaner GNZJ705-2S, with double deck shale
shaker GNZS705. It is for the first and second stage separation.

2) 1 set Mud desilter cleaner GNZJ705-12N,
with double deck shale shaker GNZS705.
It is for the first and third stage separation.

3) 2 sets mud agitator installed on
centrifuge tank compartment, to avoid drilling mud settle down.

After double checking the whole system, you
can find the HDD mud system with 2 sets shale shaker, 1 set desander assembly ,
1 set desilter assembly, 2 sets centrifuge. The treating capacity is much
bigger and the drilling mud can go to desanding cleaner and desilter cleaner at
same time. The drilling fluids go into this two units via distribution box and
controlled by flange and valves. Generally, the actual treating capacity can
reach to about 800gpm to 1000gpm.

GN Solids Control is famous solids control
equipment mfg from China with rich experience in compact mud system
fabrication. The different mud system capacity including: 500gpm mud system,
800gpm mud system and 1000gpm mud system.

Except for small mud system for HDD, CBM,
TBM etc, GN also produce lots of oil drilling mud system every year for oil
drilling companies. If you need more support, pls contact us freely.

How Does the Cyclone Work as a Solids Control Equipment

The persons who are in the drilling
industry may might not unfamiliar to the cyclone unit. The cyclone units always
get into to our view as a de-sander, de-silter or even mud cleaner equipment. These items belons to the solids
control equipment which is used to recycling the drilling mud to reduce the
drilling cost, and for some environmental friendly purpose.

As per the diameter of the cyclone straight
body part, the cyclone units are divided into 2 types. The units with a
diameter larger no less than 6 inch would be call as de-sander cyclone, while
others smaller than 6 inch would be defined as de-silter unit. The cyclone unit
is working by using the centrifuge force to separate the solid phase and liquid
phase.

Generally, the cyclone unit has 3 ports,
one is used for fluids fed in, and the rest 2 are separately used for liquid
overflow and solids discharging. The cyclone body was divided into straight
part and cone part. The fluids was pumped into the cyclone under the pressure
of 0.25-0.4 Mpa along with a tangent direction of the cyclone inner wall.
Rotating inside a cyclone at a very high speed, the solids and liquids would be
layered toward the cyclone wall with solids close to the wall and liquid in the
center.

So, how can the cyclone separate the solids
and liquids? At the bottom of the cyclone, there is a discharged port which is
a small hole. The high speed rotating layered solids would get down to the
discharge part and get out as a umbrella shape, high speed rotating makes the
centre of the discharge port a vacuum where the air can get into the cyclone.
Under the pressure of air, the liquid would overflow out from the outlet at the
top of the cyclone. Normally, the bottom discharged solids would have about
20-30 degree angle, much less or more would be treated as abnormal working
condition.

GN Solids Control always adopts the 10 inch
cyclone to be the de-sander cyclone which could
separate the solids with size large 45-70 microns. The 4 inch cyclone is used
as the de-silter to remove the solids larger than 15 microns. This cut point is
a very vague data. By compositing different size cyclone and under shaker unit,
GN
solids control could provide the de-sanding and de-silting unit for various kinds of drilling projects.

GN Centrifugal Pump to Deliver Drilling Fluids

GN solids control distinguishes
itself from other China’s manufacturers by its cost-effective product with
competitive price to USA/EUEOPE brand but with fine and stable performance.
Beside supplying solids control equipments such as shale shaker, desander, desilter, mud cleaner, and decanter centrifuge, GN solids
control also supplies centrifugal pumps to deliver drilling fluid.

With stable performance and long service
life, GN SB series centrifugal pump is designed to deliver abrasive, viscous,
corrosive media, especially drilling fluids and industrial slurry. The pump can
handle large volume flow up to 320m3/h, withstand high temperature, and
remarkably save energy, but is easy to maintain. Currently, GN centrifugal
pumps are operating widely both on onland and offshore drilling rigs around the
world. Taking drilling fluids’ condition into consideration, we are committed
to offer the best solution to our customers.

The housing of GN centrifugal pump is thicker,
heavier and solider because of the special strength when compared with
conventional pumps, thus enjoying a more durable and longer service life.

The annular flow channel inside the housing
will eliminate turbulence and cavitation, also reduce radial load on the
bearing. The housing gasket is recessed to prevent fluids from leaving the
impeller. In oil and gas field, centrifugal pumps are mainly used as feeding
pumps to desander, desilter or mud cleaner, mud mixing pump, and supercharging
pump to mud pump. Regarding to the first application, the liquids discharged
from shale shaker will be delivered to the desander, desilter or mud cleaner by
the centrifugal pump, always horizontally installed on the skid of mud tanks.
To the second, the chemical will be added when the centrifugal pump discharges
the fluids out, usually fixed below the mud mixing hopper, also on the skid of
tank. For the third, the centrifugal pump will be used as supercharging pump
for mud pumps.

The 5 steps purify drilling mud

Drilling mud purifications
is the basic to insure the function of drilling bit works properly and safely
for both oil rig equipments and many operators working around the clock in the
drilling field. Needless to say, it is a
very costly operation if one or many steps of drilling operation go wrong, It
will leads operation cost of drilling rig go double in very short amount of
time that leads to increases of operation cost and late leads to increase the
production cost of oil.

The first level of purification

The mud feed in the shale shaker. The allocation drilling fluid
enter into the bottom of the drilling well under the foundation of the drilling pump
and carry drilling debris return the ground,
through the feeding enter into the shale shaker, the larger solid debris in drilling fluid are filtered through shale
shaker screen.

The second level of purification

When drilling fluid have debris and also contain gas, The use of vacuum degasser remove the gas which in the
drilling fluid and can recover the density of drilling fluid, calm the drilling fluid viscosity.

The third level
of purification

The drilling fluid is disposed by two level purification enter into the desander. Through the desander feed into the liquid pump, the harmful sold phase which the diameter
is above 40-60um is separated in desander.

The fourth level of purification

The drilling fluid is disposed by the three level purification enter into the desilter
through the desilter feed into the liquid pump, the harmful sold phase which the diameter is above
15-40um is separated in desilter

The fifth level of purification

The drilling is disposed by the four level purification enter into the decanter centrifuge through the centrifugal feed liquid pump, the
small harmful sold phase particles are separated in decanter centrifuge
