Hot Sale High-Quality Vertical APMGS1200 Oilfield Mud Gas Separator

 
APMGS1200 mud gas separator or Mud Gas Separator, located downstream of the choke manifold, is a vertical vessel used to separate any gas from drilling fluid during a good control situation. Once the gas has been separated, it can pass through the vent line. Alternatively, as long as it’s a safe distance from the rig, it could even be vented.
 
Mud gas separators a special oil drilling equipment to handle the invaded gas, it is also effective equipment to handle the tail gas and invaded natural gas in oil fields, refineries, and natural gas collecting and distributing stations. It can ignite the harmful invaded gas to eliminate the hazards to the environment, also it is a security environmental protection equipment. This equipment can match with flare ignition device and is usually used in oil & gas drilling and CBM drilling project.
 
Drilling fluid with gas goes into the separator and drops along the inner wall. With collision to increase the contact area, it flows downward and becomes a turbulent state which makes gas separate from mud. The free gas goes through the top of the vessel and is discharged from the gas outlet. The length of the gas output pipe can be determined at the spot. The drilling fluid without gas flows into the following solids control equipment.

With mud separators, there are two main types. Also known as a ‘poor-boy’ and a ‘gas buster’, the more common of the two is called an atmospheric mud/gas separator. However, some mud/gas separators are designed to operate at moderate backpressure. Although these will mostly operate under 100 psig, it’s possible to come across those that work at the atmospheric gas vent line pressure plus the vent line friction drop.
 
APMGS1200 means the poor boy degasser is holding a vessel diameter of 1200mm. It is a popular model than other degassers. The treating capacity is up to 360m³/h. The degassing efficiency is up to 95%.
 

Why do we need the mud gas separator?

For oil and gas well drilling, we usually set mud gas separators ahead of shale shakers. The drilling mud out of the well-bore will flow into the degasser via the chock manifold. After degassed, fluid will flow out of the degasser into a shaker by pass or possum belly. Degasser will help get rid of large quantity invading gas. These are harmful and toxic gas may lead blow out
 
Especially when we drill the gas well at the gas field. The degassing is very important to safety working. We use the poor boy degasser and vacuum degasser together to control the gas volume entrained in drilling fluids and remove them efficiently.
 

What is the main configuration of such a degasser?

The vessel diameter of the mud gas separator is 1200mm, the inlet and discharge line is 5'', 10''. While the gas vent line is 8''. The overall dimension of the whole degasser is about 2200x2200x6634mm. The vessel material is made of high-quality carbon steel, or the special carbon steel Q345R to resist the H2S. Another specification is the vent line length.
 
Some clients request we deliver the vent line together with the degasser. Some request 60m, while some request 100m. The vent line is the connection between the degasser and the flare ignition device.
 
The mud gas separator is made of a steel sheet that thicks 10mm for normal pressure working conditions. Some of the degassers are made of steel sheets thick 14-20mm per different working pressure requirements. The pipelines and the valves will be different from normal pressure degasser, too.

Is there another type or model poor boy degasser?

Yes. There are APMGS1000, APMGS800. The difference is the diameter of the line's diameter and the vessel thickness. Based on working conditions, there are normal pressure degasser and middle pressure, high-pressure degasser. And the working pressure can be 0.1Mpa to 6.4Mpa, or even higher according to practical conditions. 
 
Besides the normal standard poor boy degasser, there are some degassers that can be customized. For example, we have made the APMGS500, APMGS600 degassers for clients request smaller degasser and smaller flow rate. Please feel free to let us know the requirement of your degasser.
 
There is a customizable configuration of the mud leg. That means the U tuber or mud seal length for a degasser. The mud seal will help to prevent gas from flowing out of the degasser during operation. For the degasser leg and base, we can configure it as the adjustable one. That means the laydown leg and the supporting base can be configured flexibly.
