Feeder, shale shaker, mud cleaner

June 22, 2011 - PRLog -- Feeders

Usually feeder designs offer the choice of a traditional weir feed, a weir feed with bypass, or a top feed. The weir feed consists of a 40.9 gallon tank where the mud flows over a weir and onto the shaker basket. The weir feed with bypass offers a quick opening gate that can be opened if the fluid needs to bypass the shakers.

The top feed eliminates the settling of solids while minimizing foot print area. The top feed is designed to spread the flow of mud across the shaker basket while eliminating the excess mud volume that is normally held in traditional back tanks.

Any of the feed systems can be used in conjunction with the Derrick Flo-Divider, a flow distribution device used with the mud cleaner series at the flow line.

Actually, feeder is the driling fluid input path and mainly feeder will be designed into 2 ways. One is top feed, another is back feed. Two type have themselve advantage. Also it is decided by clients' preference


Component Shaker System

Uses of the cleaner. The mud cleaner can be configured for use as a main shaker, high performance (1,600 GPM) mud cleaner, or as a secondary drilled cuttings dryer. The mud cleaner allows the user to configure the shaker and its interchangeable components to fit specific needs for application, size, and capacity. The mud cleaner can be used in the following instances

As a main shaker. Two mud cleaner’s with Super G2 motors can be used in place of three or four standard shale shakers due to their exceptional fluid handling capability and superior solids conveyance.

We knog Derrick design. When coupled with Derrick’s Flo-Line Primer, two mud cleaner’s can replace three or four stacked orcascade shakers. Many manufacturers will design such configuration to get better result


Mud cleaner unit

As a mud cleaner to dry the underflow from desanders and desilters. The mud cleaner is a useful tool in reducing the amount of liquid being discharged from desanders and desilters. This technique is effective when using an expensive drilling fluid. It also allows hydrocyclones to be a useful part of a “closed-loop”system.

As a cuttings dryer to recover oil base mud from drilled cuttings. When utilized for  secondary drilled cuttings drying, the mud cleaner can reduce the oil on cuttings to below 10% by weight.

The Results

GN Mud cleaner is powered by two vibrating motors for superior performance. While conventional shakers operate in the 3 to 5 G force range, the 2 motors produce even 7.3 G’s on GN shale shaker and mud cleaner.

The higher G force motors combined with GN Pyramid screen have proven to be very effective in liquid/solids separation due to superior conveyance characteristics and maximized available screening area.
