Carbon Steel Tanks Containing Drilling Mud Agitator 11Kw

Tanks Containing Drilling Mud Used Electric Agitator 11Kw

Mud agitators are fluid mixing equipment that keeps solids in drilling fluid suspending, no deposit in the mud tank bottom. It uses its impeller to agitate and mix the drilling mud to prevent solid particles from depositing in the tank or mud pit.

Based on the different gearbox, there are helical bevel geared and helical worm geared for option. More clients prefer helical bevel agitator as it is more powerful, durable, and stable. As well as less wearing parts

Recently, a batch of agitators delivered to end user in Europe. this is their 3th repeat order after 2 orders placed.

Specification of this batch of agitator

How to select mud agitator?

According to mud tank specification and drilling mud property(volume, dimension, SG)
Confirm the exact model and quantity we need (usually 3 meters per set)
Confirm the detail specs of impeller and shaft per tank size(tank height/depth)
To check which type reducer you prefer(Helical worm, helical bevel)
Other special requirements (Reduce ratio, installation position, color)

Why use drilling mud agitators

Drilling mud agitators are popular auxiliary equipment used in drilling mud system. In oilfield, mud tanks are the platform for a whole solids control system. On tanks, there are shakers, mud cleaner, centrifuge, pumps, agitators, and so on

Mud tanks are used to reserve drilling fluids. During whole well drilling, we need drilling mud and we maintain and process drilling mud for a better property and save drilling cost. Mud agitators will help us to mix or agitate the drilling fluids. Under the impellers’ rotation, the useful solids will suspend without sediment

We know the agitator is consisting of motor and reducer. Combining them together will get a proper turn speed. Under proper TOR the drilling fluids will be at a high property for better circulation throughout mud system

Drilling Mud Agitator Options

Horizontal worm gear type agitator, this is the most popular agitator used in oil and gas mud tank because it’s cost effective. There is coupler options for agitator to protect gear or options without coupler for saving cost.

Horizontal bevel gear type agitator, this is a very good option for larger torque and minimum footprint. The bevel gear is much higher torque compares worm gear. Better performance, higher cost.

Vertical agitator, this is well used for vertical tank with small footprint but higher height.

AIPU supply mud agitator for above options as per buyer’s request and cost budget. Other than agitator, AIPU supply a series equipment for mud tank or a whole tank with all tank attachment.
