Follow on Google News | ![]() Onshore and offshore Drilling cutting ManagementGN have a standard system for onshore and offshore drilling cuttings management, and we have enough knowledge for the features of onshore and offshore drilling mud, welcome to share with us your requirement or practice on such industry.
By: Teresa Bai http://oilfield.gnsolidscontrol.com/ The target of drilling cutting management is to re-use it. Drill cuttings are made up of ground rock coated with a layer of drilling fluid. Most drill cuttings are managed through disposal, although some are treated and beneficially reused. Before the cuttings can be reused, it is necessary to ensure that the hydrocarbon content, moisture content, salinity, and clay content of the cuttings are suitable for the intended use of the material. Some cuttings, particularly when a saltwater-type mud was used to drill the well, may need washing to remove dissolved salts prior to beneficial use. Water used for washing can be disposed of in an injection well. http://oilfield.gnsolidscontrol.com/ Road Spreading: One use of cuttings is to stabilize surfaces that are subject to erosion, such as roads or drilling pads. Oily cuttings serve the same function as traditional tar-and-chip road surfacing. Not all regulatory agencies allow road spreading. Where it is permitted, operators must obtain permission from the regulatory agency and the landowner before spreading cuttings. Some jurisdictions limit road spreading to dirt roads on the lease, while others may allow cuttings to be spread on public dirt roads, too. Reuse of Cuttings as Construction Material: After primary separation on shale shakers, cuttings are still coated with mud and are relatively hard to reuse for construction purposes. Various further treatment steps can be employed to render the cuttings more innocuous. http://www.gnsolidscontrol.com/ Some cuttings are thermally treated to remove the hydrocarbon fractions, leaving behind a relatively clean solid material. Other cuttings are screened or filtered to remove most of the attached liquid mud. If cuttings contain too much liquid, they can be stabilized by adding fly ash, cement, or some other materials to improve their ease of handling. Treated cuttings have been used in various ways: fill material, daily cover material at landfills, aggregate or filler in concrete, brick, or block manufacturing # # # GN provides you qualified goods at your budget. including shale shaker, mud cleaner, decanter centrifuge, centrifugal pump, decanter centrifuge, mud agitator, mud jet mixer, mud gas separator, flare ignition device, whole mud purification sytem End
