Four Major Functions of Filtrate Reducer

READ: Pressure gradients naturally genders fluid loss through the walls from the drilling mud as drilling processes, subsequently developing into borehole collapse and drilling-related accidents. Thus, filtrate reducer plays a significant role in maintaining relatively low fluid loss, one of the essential properties of the mud. Pressure gradients naturally genders fluids loss through the walls from the drilling mud as drilling processes. Excessive fluid loss can impact many aspects of drilling operations: 1. Shale formation can expand and collapse and the wall be less stabilized. 2. Fluid penetration can expand the clay, blocking the oil and gas channel and damaging the formation. 3. Larger fluid loss thickens the filter cake, narrows the borehole diameter, increases the torque of drilling

How to Get Separation Point of Purification Equipment

READ: The separation point for drilling fluids is defined as separation characteristics shown by purification equipment in the given time. And that for purification equipment comes out from comparing mass velocities of solid phases in different sizes and identical size discharged. Separation point of drilling fluids: The separation point for drilling fluids is defined as separation characteristics shown by purification equipment in the given time. It should take the properties of both purification equipment and drilling fluids into account to evaluate separation point data. The curve of separation can be drawn on collected data, illustrating the equipments removing rates of certain size at certain time in data collection. Accordingly, it is the function for solids physical property, diamet

Solutions for Four Common Underflow Problems of Cyclone

READ: When cyclone works, high-speed swirling movement generates the air column and low-pressure area, creating suction towards underflow outlet. This cyclone is often found in mud cleaners where solid-content fluids enters and solids leave through underflow outlet. When cyclone works, high-speed swirling movement generates the air column and low-pressure area, creating suction towards underflow outlet. Inject some water into cyclone by certain pressure and adjust the outlet till it allows no fluid flow, meaning it reaches the balance point.

Application in Handling Unweighted and Weighted Drilling Fluids

READ: Decanter centrifuge separates by the work principle of centrifugal sedimentation. The drilling fields usually apply spiral settling centrifuge which works on the basis of different component densities. It mainly removes 2~10m solid phase from the mud as the last stage in solids control system. It has shared applications in both weighted and unweighted drilling fluids.

Ten Unmissed Points on Desander’s Daily Maintenance

READ: Here are several unmissed points on desanders daily maintenance: No butter should be applied insider its hydrocyclones and seal groove cavity on the top since they are sealed by metal which will be damaged by the potential particle content or fixture from butter. Spare filter element and adequate O-shape sealing ring should be fully prepared. Here are several unmissed points on desanders daily maintenance: 1. No butter should be applied insider its hydrocyclones and seal groove cavity on the top since they are sealed by metal which will be damaged by the potential particle content or fixture from butter. 2. Spare filter element and adequate O-shape sealing ring should be fully prepared. 3. Visual inspection should be conducted into its hydrocyclones. 4. Indicated value displayed on p

Jet Mud Mixer Is A Unit Used Together with Solids Control System

KOSUN DJM series jet mud mixer is special equipment to prepare and increase the drilling fluids weight by adding and mixing bentonite, change the fluid density, change the mud density, viscosity, and dehydration. The effect is more prominent matching with shear pump.. That is used to mix water and bentonite powder and cement powder with water. The mixing principle is done either by impeller or by venturi throttle, in both cases the aim is to generate enough shear to end up in a colloidal. The effect is more prominent matching with shear pump. KOSUN DJM jet mud mixer is a unit used together with the solids control system for petroleum drilling and horizontal directional drilling(HDD). The unit includes one sand pump, one jet mixing hopper and one jet mixer that are installed in a base with

Causes and Solutions of Sand Fill in Hydrocyclones

Hydrocyclones are major components in desander, desilter and mud cleaner and assist most of their works. A hydrocyclone has a upper casing, a lower casing, a underflow mouth as well as auxiliary parts. The upper casing is an inlet chamber in cylindric with an inlet pipe on one side and a vortex tube in top middle as the overflow. The lower casing is a cone whose angle ranges from 15~20 at the tip. The underflow mouth is located at the bottom as the discharge port for solids. The work principle of hydrocyclones is to separate two or several components with different densities with the aid of centrifugal force. After the mixture is sent into hydrocyclones by certain pressure, it gradually flow into a high-speed rotation where the heavy phase form an outer swirl by moving downwards along the

KOSUN Decanter Centrifuge Efficiently Removes Undesirable Solids

A KOSUN drilling mud decanter centrifuge efficiently removes undesirable solids from drilling mud in crude oil extraction. KOSUN drilling mud decanter centrifuges are designed specifically to remove unwanted solids and fine particles from virtually all kinds of used drilling mud, including those based on water/synthetics and conventional oil-based drilling fluids. Built for heavy-duty processing, a KOSUN installation handles large quantities of solids in the feed flow, as well as being able to cope with coarse, abrasive particles. It also efficiently removes the vast majority of fine particles, down to sizes of around 5 microns. Traditional equipment is unable to deal with these particles, which have a serious impact on the quality of drilling mud because of their abrasive effect. The KOSU

What is the desilter and desander

Desilter and desander are used to process large volumes of drilling fluid to remove abrasive sands and silts that shale shakers cannot remove. KOSUN desilting and desanding hydrocyclones are made from high density abrasion resistant polyurethane. The unique internal manifold design minimises the back pressure on the hydrocyclones maximising the solids removal. Fine tuning is achieved through adjustable orifice openings at the discharge point on the cone. Both desilter and desander are available in a large range of configurations including stand alone, over a shaker as a mud cleaner or packaged with a supply pump as a mobile desilting unit. Please contact your nearest KOSUN office to discuss applications and appropriate technical specifications. KOSUN is a leader in Chinas solids control in
