Sept. 25, 2010 - PRLog -- Simple information on mud gun
The mud gun also can be called mud mixing gun. As we know it is usually used along with mud agitator as mixers for oil rig.

The mud gun is consisted by main construction by steel pipe and flange, the valves (including high pressure or normal pressure), and the rotary parts.

The mud gun is simple in design or structure. Usually all turning takes place on double rows of steel balls in flame hardened races. There is nothing to tighten or adjust. Flow is unrestricted and pressure drop is minimum.


Mud agitator basic information
Mud agitator can be classified to horizontal and vertical mud agitator.  Usually GN JBQ Mud agitator will be vertical type. All GN mud agitators feature a brand motor coupled to a rugged oilfield gearbox, which eliminates misalignment and troublesome couplings.

This configuration promotes longer motor and gearbox bearing life. This highly efficient gearbox offers a 95% power transfer, which is approximately 30% more than a worm drive gearbox.


Mud gun types for oil rigs in GN
I. Divided by pressure. There will be high pressure and normal pressure

II. Divided by rotary type. There will be with manual rotary or fixed type

III. Divided by diameter. There will be 2″ (NJQ50) and 3″ (NJQ80)

IV. Divided by nozzle number. There will be single one and triple one, etc.

V. Divided by valves. There will be gate valve type and butterfly valve type.

NJQ Mud gun common parameters
NJQ50 holds 2” diameter, and 2” valve can be butterfly or gate valve, then the connector size should be also 2”. The pressure can be normal pressure(0.6Mpa) or high pressure(1.6Mpa),the nozzle number will be customized as 3 or 1. And there will be rotation angle by manual rotation.

There is another common type NJQ80. Almost same with above one just the diameter, valve, connector, etc. dimension will be 3". On oil rig drilling mud system the mud gun is usually fixed in active tank. However, we can design it subject to actual circumstance and situation or requirements by clients.


Mud guns and mud agitators
Mixer related to mud tank is mud agitator, mud gun, jet mud mixer. Mud agitator is always on the top of the tank, in oilfield, shaker tank, tirp tank, mixing tank, storage tank, every tank need mud agitator; mud gun is an additional components for mud agitator, to make the effect perfect; jet mud mixer is one part of mud system.
