Reliable Solids Control Equipment for Offshore Applications

GN Solids Control has recently provided a set of shale shaker and mud cleaner equipment for use on an offshore drilling platform. Engineered to meet the demanding conditions of marine environments, this equipment will play a key role in the first-stage and secondary-stage solids removal during offshore drilling operations.

Built for Harsh Offshore Conditions

The GN shale shaker is designed for efficient separation of drilling cuttings from the drilling fluid, helping operators maintain optimal mud properties and reduce dilution costs. It features a high G-force vibration design, stainless steel screen deck, and easy-to-maintain structure — all tailored for high-performance operation in offshore settings.

The mud cleaner, which integrates desander and desilter cyclones over a fine screen shaker, provides secondary separation of finer solids, ensuring maximum fluid recovery and minimizing waste discharge. Compact in design and skid-mounted, it is ideal for space-limited offshore platforms.

With a growing number of successful deployments offshore, GN Solids Control continues to support international oil & gas companies with reliable, compact, and easy-to-service equipment. All equipment is manufactured to API and offshore safety standards, ensuring long-term performance and operator safety.

For offshore projects requiring efficient solids control and compact system layout, GN offers customized solutions backed by global service and technical support.

Efficient Mud Recycling Solutions for Global Drilling Operations

GN Solids Control has successfully completed the shipment of two sets of GNMS-500K mud recycling systems and three units of GNLW364GT decanter centrifuges to an overseas drilling contractor. This delivery is part of GN’s ongoing effort to support international clients with high-efficiency solids control and fluid recovery solutions.

Integrated System for Cleaner, More Efficient Drilling

The GNMS-500K system is a compact and modular solution designed for trenchless drilling, HDD, and piling projects. It integrates coarse solids removal, desanding, and desilting stages into a single skid-mounted unit, allowing easy transport, fast installation, and minimal footprint at the job site.

Rugged, Pneumatic Transfer Solution for Sludge and High-Solids Waste

GN Solids Control has recently delivered a batch of solids vacuum pumps to an oilfield service company in Africa, further strengthening its presence in the region’s energy sector. These pumps, also referred to as sludge vacuum pumps or solids transfer pumps, are well-suited for tough field conditions where high-viscosity, high-density, or abrasive materials need to be transferred safely and efficiently.

Powered by compressed air, GN solids vacuum pumps feature a fully pneumatic design, eliminating the need for electricity and making them ideal for remote sites or hazardous zones. With no rotating parts in contact with the material, the pump structure is simple, durable, and requires very low maintenance.

Designed for Versatility and Performance

GN vacuum pumps can handle materials with up to 80% solids content, including drilling cuttings, oil sludge, tank bottom residue, sand, and other heavy slurries. Thanks to their high vacuum loading capacity, these pumps offer strong suction power and long-distance discharge capabilities, making them extremely effective in a wide range of industries such as:

• Oil & gas drilling waste management

• Mining tailings and slurry transfer

• Industrial tank cleaning

• Environmental cleanup and remediation

The pumps shipped to Africa will be deployed in challenging onshore oilfield operations, where reliable and low-maintenance equipment is critical to project efficiency. This delivery reflects GN’s ongoing commitment to supporting international customers with robust, application-driven solids handling solutions.
