GN Solids Vacuum Pumps for drilling waste cleaning to Africa


 
GN Solids Control manufactures different types of transfer pumps, among them GN Solids Vacuum Pump is a high efficiency transfer pump especially designed to move high solids content materials such as drilling waste.
This week GN Solids Control finished manufacturing of 2 sets vacuum pumps and will be delivered to Africa before China New Year holidays.


Vacuum pump is an air driven transfer unit, connected with air compressor or air source at the rig site. GN Solids Control shipped one wheel type 20B vacuum pump and one skid type 40B vacuum pump.
In fact, most of the oil & gas drilling waste is not easy to move as they usually have high solids content and viscosity. But GN made vacuum pump is able to suck and discharge any moveable materials as long as size less than 75 mm. Furthermore, it can pump the material to max. 1000 meters.
As for these 2 vacuum pumps, this African customer will use it to remove oil drilling cuttings in the rig site. When the vacuum pump is under operation with a proper air pressure, drilling cuttings are sucked into the pump shell first for some seconds with the inlet gate valve open, then the inlet gate valve will close and the outlet gate valve will open so the cuttings can be discharged.
 
GN Vacuum pump can work under automatic mode after set the two timers, and it can also work under manual mode to control the suck and discharge by operator.
Besides drilling waste or cuttings after treated by shaker, mud cleaner and centrifuge, GN vacuum pump can be also used for drilling mud transfer, waste pit cleaning, oil sludge removal from tank bottom, construction materials such as sands, silts, aggregates.
GN Solids Control also provides SS vacuum pump besides carbon steel for some special material usage. Welcome to connect with GN sales reps. for you customized cost-effective solution.

3 Package Drilling Rig Solids Control Equipment for South American Customer


 
GN Solids Control shipped 3 packages of drilling rig solids control equipment for one South American customer last month, it mainly includes shale shakers, mud cleaners, centrifugal pumps, decanter centrifuges and feeding pumps.
GN Solids Control has rich experience of providing solids control equipment and drilling waste management equipment to global drilling contractors, although under pandemic, GN Solids Control still shipped hundreds of shakers and decanter centrifuges in 2022.
 
1.GN Shale Shaker, GNZS594J
GN Shale shaker is the first phase drilling mud solids treating unit, it is mainly used to remove big solids after the poor boy degasser.
GN Solids Control shipped 12 sets of shale shakers to this South American customer, who has been using GN Solids Control equipment in multiple sites.
 
2.GN Mud Cleaner, GNZJ594J-3S16N
Totally 3sets drilling rig solids control equipment are provided, so the mud cleaner GN shipped 3 sets GNZJ594J-3S16N with 3 units big desander cyclones and 16 sets 4 inch desilter cyclones.
GN Cyclones remove effluent from shaker with above 100 microns and downsize to 55 microns after go through the desander cyclones, then reduce to 25 microns after the desilter cyclones. 3.GN Centrifugal Pump
All the cyclones should have one feeding pump individually, all the GN mud cleaners GN Solids Control use centrifugal pump as the feeding pump, put on the side of the mud tank to save room.
GN made centrifugal pump is wear resistant and can use for a long time without broken. All centrifugal pump parts are interchangeable with NOV mission magnum pump parts.
 
4.GN Middle Speed Decanter Centrifuge, GNLW363D
3 sets GN middle speed decanter centrifuge will separate solids larger than 2-5 microns. These 14 inch bowl decanter centrifuges remove solids from quantity under middle speed.
5.GN High Speed Decanter Centrifuge, GNLW363D
To remove even finer particles, GN Solids Control also shipped 3 sets 14 inch bowl of high speed decanter centrifuges GNLW363D.
6.GN Feeding Screw Pump, GNG30-075C
GN screw feeding pump GNG30-075C is fix flow rate feeding pump with every screw circle. It is an effective feeding pumps for decanter centrifuge, as it can be controlled easily in the HMI tough screen control panel.

Desander Desilter and Degasser for China Drilling Company

GN Solids Control is a leading drilling mud solids control equipment provider in the world with thousands of oil and gas drilling contractors have been using GN equipment for many years.
This week, GN Solids Control shipped another batch of desander, desilter and degasser for one Chinese drilling company. All equipment were thoroughly tested by hydraulic before shipping.
 
1.GN Desander, model GNZJ752J-1S
GN 752 desander is a mini 2 panels shaker fixed with 1 unit 10 inch cyclones. Desander cyclone is mainly used to remove solids larger than 75 microns from the drillling mud. A centrifugal pump or submersible pump sucks the drilling mud to pump into the cyclones so the light slurry go out from the cyclone top outlet and the heave solids discharged from the bottom nuts.

2.GN Desilter, model GNZJ752J-8N
Desilter is 4 inch cycones mounted on the top of a shaker similar with desander while it removes finer particles above 25 microns from the drilling mud. GNZJ752J-8N is a 2 panes shaker fixed with 8 pcs cyclones.
All shaker screens used on GN desander and GN desiler are made by GN Solids Control, which is the only China screen manufacturer plant who is passed the 3rd USA party test report. Now GN Solids Control builds over 8,000 pcs screens every month, and customers from over 85 countries are using GN screens.

3.GN Degasser, model GNZS270B
GN Degasser is a gas removal unit, as the drilling mud from high pipe lines usually contains bubbles, which will bring air weariness to the cyclones, sometimes cyclones can be broken will continuous drilling mud running inside with bubbles.
GN Solids Control manufactures 3 different types of air removal units, include the poor boy degasser, vacuum degasser and centrifugal degasser. Poor boy degasser removes the big bubbles from drilling mud high pipe lines directly, while the vacuum degasser and centrifugal dgasser remove small bubbles, only difference is the centrifugal degasser takes less room compared with the vacuum degasser.
