The facts need to consider for purchasing the mud system

  • The size of the drill rig I have now

The well capabilities to produce the oil determine by the diameters and the depth.  When the rig gets deeper, the needs of treating the drilling fluid become more complex.  The system might need several tanks and sets of drilling mud shale shakers to rotate.  Desander hydrocyclones and desilter hydrocyclones pair with shakers at the bottom to take the treatment in the next level.  Last is decanter centrifuge will remove the remain solids and return the cleaned drilling fluid back to the tank.  For HDD industry, the typical drilling doesn’t so deep compare with oil drilling.  Therefore, the single tank and single set of solids removal machinery on top of the tank will serve the purpose.

  • The treating capacity (gallon per minute, GPM).GNMS-500GL HDD1

It is the next fact need to take as consideration after the size of rig which is the rate of feeding pumps determine GPM.  The typical GPM output is 1 to 1.5 because it’s based on the specs of clear water.  When viscosities, solids loading and polymers enter the picture, this ratio will allow some room for the system to keep up. The GPM and penetration rate are in direct control of solids loading, which should be kept around 10 to 20 percent by weight of solids. If the mud in the return pit is above 35 percent solids, it will cause unfavorable conditions for a reclamation system to separate solids effectively.

  • The conditions of soils

The system is long term uses purchase and sometimes it moves by contractors where the site will be.  The variety of soils that job site have will be determent the process of drilling.  Solids control machinery MFG will balance the pump sizes to reflect the throughput volume.  In regions where fine sands or sugar sand is the predominate soil, de-sanders may be used to take loading off the desilters. Regions where clay, sands stones or shale is the majority of soil conditions that are encountered.  For the larger rig  that can add the operations cost of a  decanter centrifuge and  it will help lower the clay build up. It keeps the mud weight down to a usable level and lower the percentage of destructive low gravity solids.

GN Solids America’s GNZCQ270A and GNZCQ360A vacuum degasser

In drilling mud purification process, the vacuum degasser is place behind the shale shaker and before desander hydrocyclone.  The purpose of this machinery, as the name suggest, is to remove the gas that is contain in the drilling mud so the ideal mud weight can pumped back to the drilling hole. By doing the removal of the gas in the drilling mud, it can also avoid the blowout of the mud as well.  Vacuum force created by vacuum degasser in regenerative vacuum with no need of centrifugal pump.  The step is act similar like an agitator before mud feeding to the desander hydrocyclone.  GN Solids America LLC offers 2 models of vacuum degasser, GNZCQ270A and GNZCQ360A.  The treat capacity is 1188 GPM and 1584 GPM and main motor HP is 30 and 37. There are some notes for use vacuum degasser:vacuum degasser 2

 

l   Vacuum degasser need to make drilling mud discharge into mud tank in downstream and the pipe make the mud gas discharge up to the surface of the mud.

l   The output of the vacuum degasser is greater than capacity of the mud tank

l   The end of exhaust pipe is needed to be far away from the oil well.  The valve should be placed on the exhaust pipe and separated branches so the gas will always lighted away from the well.

l   For the function serve well on vacuum degasser, the end of suction pipe need to immersed in the drilling mud

l    Open the ball valve of vacuum pump feed line before start the vacuum degasser. Unscrew the plug of gas liquid separator, filling water, stop filling water when the water overflow, and then screw on plug. At last, turn the coupling by hand or pipe wrench, to ensure there have no stuck phenomenon or other damages.

GN Centrifuge, Good Performance on Transocean Offshore Rig

In traditional mind, the solids control and waste management is the world occupied by USA and European companies, especially in American own territory, there’s seldom other brands from outside USA. But GN Solids Control, as the first API certified solids control company in China and also the first USA based China solids control company who has a branch company and warehouse in Houston.

QQ图片20150515122152

Not long ago, GN after sale service team came back from Transocean Offshore Rig jobsite in America, bring back valuable feedback and data. On this jobsite, they are using GN’s decanter centrifuge.This decanter centrifuge GNLW363-VFD, with max rotating speed 3900 RPM. This centrifuge is ideal solution for such application, besides the traditional application as solids control and waste management. Because of the VFD control system, this centrifuge’s speed ranges from 0 to 3200, could be used for separating the large and heavy particles and ultra fine small particles.

The end user has 2 centrifuges of similar treating capacity on this working jobsite. One is from GN Solids Control ,the other is from Baker Hudges. Normally, the run one of the 2 centrifuges and the other is used like backup centrifuge. In most cases, the capacity of one set is enough. When the treating capacity requested is larger, they run both of them together. The ender user was surprised that Chinese brand centrifuge could be equivalent as the Baker Hudges one. Before using GN’s centrifuge, they hesitated for a while and finally decided to trust and try. GN didn’t fail them.

They got to know GN’s quality, but there is one thing they didn’t know, that also Baker Hudges is GN’s client and end user of GN decanter centrifuge. Now there are four sets of GN Waste Management Systems running at Nabor’s jobsite, where Baker Hudges is providing service.

Drill Cuttings Separation, DO IT with Chemicals

It is quite surprised to know the feedback that the chemicals works more than we expected. It is now well known that with proper chemicals, especially the oilly sluge, the OBM waste cuttings, can be well separated. Then the mechanical machine can just assisting the whole process to make it better way.

With oil waste, as I am sure you know, there is no “one size fits all’ but we have experienced some very effective processes in our time. Let me share a little of that experience with you by walking you through one process we have seen work very effectively in the past:drilling-waste-management-equipment-to-Africa--1

Pump the waste from your storage tank to the centrifuge input feed

Just before it enters the feed use a static inline mixer to mix the chemical with the sludge you can use a range of chemicals to aid the separation process (this could be anything from demulsifier to polymer or SAS Microemulsion products)

The mixture is then fed through the centrifuge.

The solids separate from the liquid and fall out the bottom of the centrifuge.

The liquid, which will contain oil, water and some chemical is then pumped to a settling tank.

 

Then as all know, before dumping the waste to the environment, solidification, thermal desorption, or biodegradation; thermal desorption is by heating, biodegradation is using germs, solidification is the most convinient and easy to be widely used. Yes, it is with chemicals, absorber, cement, other fluid chemicals are needed in this process. With proper mixing, the toxy parts are stable, then can be dumped to the environment.

 

The right chemical, in proper way.

Though chemicals is helping us to solve the final problem, separate the drill cuttings & fluids, have to be used properly. Like our first origin concern, it might hurt, people, and environment.

How area unit micro emulsions impacting the waste management business?

Micro emulsions gift a spread of recent opportunities for the waste management industry, and area unit dynamical the business in five elementary ways: one. Gap new markets for waste treatment firms Waste treatment firms have developed processes for treating specific styles of waste. Once waste treatment firms stumble upon new styles of waste that will need a special variety of treatment, existing systems could struggle. one amongst the distinctive characteristics of micro emulsions is that they will be effective on a good vary of oil contaminated waste sorts, together with however not restricted to, plant waste, oil base muds, flow back waste, drill cuttings, marplot waste and fighter aircraft waste. this suggests that having micro emulsions as a part of the method can enable waste treatment firms to expand the kinds of waste they will treat, while not having to create important changes in their method or invest in new instrumentality.;

20150421101534830

2.Treatment is moving upstream to eliminate issues downstream Waste treatment firms area unit asked to treat a good vary of waste sorts to progressively strict standards. each waste stream is completely different and will need a special methodology of treatment. This presents important challenges. one amongst the challenge is that several treatment strategies turn out residual waste that need any treatment. One advantage of microemulsions is that once used early within the treatment method they considerably scale back the quantity of residual waste streams. the most objective of treating oilcontaminated waste is to separate the oil, solids and water phases. Microemulsions area unit extraordinarily effective at separating these 3 parts. Waste treatment firms World Health Organization use microemulsions early within the treatment method area unit able to improve process efficiencies throughout their operations. leading to a movement towards treating “virgin” waste as so much up-stream as attainable.

3.Microemulsions area unit stimulating the event of recent business models Microemulsions modify waste treatment firms to recover a lot of prime quality hydrocarbons than ever before. Microemulsions area unit facultative some waste treatment firms to operate a lot of like drilling firms, by permitting them to recover giant volumes of oil from oilcontaminated sludges and slops. For alternative waste treatment firms, microemulsions modify them offer a lot of worth for his or her shoppers by convalescent a lot of prime quality oil on their behalf. the extra revenue from exaggerated oil recovery will enable waste treatment firms to supply a lower value treatment service. this may facilitate waste treatment firms World Health Organization use microemulsions win a lot of business.

4. Heat treatment can become progressively rare several treatment firms use energy intensive methodes like heat or thermal treatment as a core element of their process. Heating a one hundred,000 gallon tank of oil-contaminated waste to 70-80C, and maintaining that temperature for days, generally weeks, is costly. In several cases microemulsions area unit able to deliver an efficient split while not exploitation heat. This dramatically reduces treatment prices and treatment times, maximizing outturn volume. 5. Polymers are going to be dose pressure Polymers are a mainstay of the waste treatment business for many years. Polymers were originally used for water treatment, and therefore the business created the natural extension to use polymers to the treatment of liquid oilcontaminated wasteHowever the effectiveness of polymers decreases because the oil content of a waste will increase. Polymers work by “grabbing” the oil and solids and protection them along, leading to a 2-phase separation of fresh water and oily sludge – one thing extraordinarily troublesome to treat. this is often why polymers ought to be used just for de-watering, however not for removing oil from solids. Microemulsions work by “releasing” the oil from the solids, and once separated, the relative weights of oil and water end in a natural separation. wherever polymers deliver a 2-phase separation, deed a lot of work to be done, microemulsions deliver a 3-phase separation, achieving a a lot of complete treatment method in one pass. The business is quickly realizing that microemulsions area unit a lot of applicable for the treatment of oil-contaminated sludges, resulting in the speedy adoption of the technology. This industry-wide shift is inflicting operators to re-think once and wherever to use polymers in their treatment method;
