Drilling Waste Management and Solids Control Equipment.
Desanders
Use: Removes sand-sized particles (greater than 44 microns) from the drilling fluid. They use centrifugal force to separate solids.
Desilters
Use: Removes silt-sized particles (12-44 microns) from the drilling fluid. Also uses centrifugal force for separation.
Centrifuges
Use: Uses high rotational speed to separate fine solids from drilling fluid. Essential for recovering barite and other weighting agents.
Augers and Conveyors
Use: Transport drilling cuttings and other solid waste to disposal sites or further processing units.
Mud Tanks
Use: Stores drilling fluid and provides a space for mixing and conditioning the fluid.
Vacuum Transfer Unit
A Vacuum Transfer Unit (VTU) is a versatile piece of equipment used primarily in drilling waste management and solids control operations. Its usage spans various applications, making it an essential tool for efficient and safe handling of drilling waste and other materials.
Cuttings Reinjection (CRI) Unit
is a specialized piece of equipment used in the oil and gas industry for managing drilling waste. The CRI process involves grinding drill cuttings and other waste materials into fine particles, mixing them with fluids to create a slurry, and then injecting this slurry into a suitable subsurface formation.
