GN Solids Control recently completed the sale of its Double Deck shale shaker and Vertical Cuttings Dryer to an African drilling company, addressing the company’s demand for efficient solid-liquid separation in oilfield operations. This delivery represents a key upgrade in their drilling waste management capabilities, providing a more streamlined process for handling cuttings and drilling fluids.
The Double Deck shale shaker is designed to increase solids separation efficiency by processing larger volumes of mud and finer particles in a single pass. With two screening decks, it offers better filtration and faster processing than traditional single-deck models, making it an ideal choice for high-volume drilling sites. The shale shaker’s robust design minimizes maintenance, ensuring consistent performance in demanding drilling environments.
Meanwhile, the Vertical Cuttings Dryer is engineered to maximize the recovery of drilling fluids from cuttings, reducing the waste volume. By applying centrifugal force, the dryer extracts valuable drilling fluids that can be recycled, which lowers disposal costs and minimizes environmental impact. This is particularly beneficial in regions with strict environmental regulations.
The combination of the Double Deck shale shaker and Cuttings Dryer enhances the efficiency of mud recycling systems. Together, they help reduce waste, save costs, and improve overall fluid management. The equipment integrates seamlessly with GN Solids Control's broader offerings, such as the decanter centrifuge, forming a complete drilling waste management system.
By leveraging these products, the African drilling company is expected to see reduced operational downtime and increased recovery of valuable resources, contributing to more sustainable and cost-effective drilling operations. GN Solids Control continues to support the global oil and gas industry by providing advanced and reliable solutions tailored to the specific needs of its clients.
