APMC50 Cleaning Recycling Mud Desander System Mud Reclaimer Recycler

A mud system, also known as an oil drilling mud system is a control system specially designed for oil gas drilling rigs. The system maintains the solids control and the overall performance of different equipment installed for the drilling fluid. Below we'll main introduce the APMC mud cleaning system.

Desanding Plant is the economic way for mud recycling, it is popular for Bored Pile Slurry desanding plant, TBM slurry treatment, HDD (trenchless) as well as water well drilling, etc.

Specifications of APMC mud cleaning system

Application and effect

Such a mud cleaning system is designed for mud purification and recovery of the bored piles, rotary drilling rig, antiseepage engineering, core drilling and etc, which can reduce costs and improve construction efficiency.

The slurry pump sucks the mud from the mud pit then enter into the bottom layer screen of shale shaker (3) through the buffer box(2), the coarse particles will be separated out and the mudflow to the mud storage tank (4) through the bottom layer screen of shale shaker(3). The centrifugal pump (5) takes mud from the recycling tank(4), and feeds it to the desander cone (6) with pressure for centrifugal separation, the solids/sand was discharged to the upper shaker(3) from the outlet nipple of the desander cone.
After the dewatering process of the upper shaker(3), the fine solids were separated out. The mud passed the upper shaker screen returns back to the recycling tank(4), the clean mud entered into the intermediary tank(7) through a desander cone overflow pipe. The mud in the intermediary tank (7) will go out through the outlet pipe (9) or go back to the recycling tank (4) depends on the fluid level in the recycling tank.
In the mud circulation process, there is a fluids level float switch (8) between the intermediary tank (7) and the recycling tank (4), it can balance the fluids level in the recycling tank(4). When mud level is low in the recycling tank (4) the overflow from the desander will enter the recycling tank (4) through the intermediary tank (7). When the mud level is too high in the recycling tank (4), the mud will overflow to the intermediary tank (7) and go out from the outlet pipe (9). If operators want to get high-quality clean fluids, the feeding capacity to the system can be reduced, and the repeat cleaning process will get the result.

Features of APMC mud cleaning system

Recycling and reusing drilling fluids is becoming increasingly common on jobs with mid-size horizontal directional drill (HDD) projects where previously that practice was uncommon.

Recycling isn’t for every job – it would not be practical on jobs with small machines making short bores – but contractors who are recycling on larger projects with 30,000 to 60,000-pound pullback equipment are reporting surprising cost savings resulting in overall lower project costs.

Savings come from using less water and drilling additives, less time in mixing fluids, reduced clean-up requirements, and significant reduction in costs of hauling water to make the fluid and dispose of it after a job is complete.

Mud recycling is standard procedure on HDD projects with big drill rigs – to not recycle fluids on a long, deep bore with a big machine using a mud motor would make the logistics of handling fluids unmanageable and cost-prohibitive, and the physical size of recyclers used on these projects would not permit their use on work sites of the mid-size drill rigs that do utility work.
