Second And Third Phase Carbon Steel Drilling Mud Cleaner

Aipu Carbon Steel Mud Cleaner Is The Second And Third Phase Cleaning Equipment For A Whole Solids Control System.

Introduction of Aipu mud cleaner

Aipu carbon steel mud cleaner is the second and third phase cleaning equipment for a whole solids control system.

The mud cleaner used for drilling fluid circulation system, HDD, CBM and geothermal environmental waste mud cleaning system

A mud cleaner is a combination of desanders and desilters mounted over a shaker with a fine mesh screen. A mud is fed to the inlet of the hydrocyclone (desander and desilter) to separate particles and the underflow passes to the fine screen mesh where in particles larger than barite are discarded and thrown away. In most drilling operations, a mud cleaner is installed in its mud systems. It is usually located in a mud tank in the same location as with the desilters.

Aipu Mud cleaner is the second stage solid control equipment used for drilling fluid circulation system, HDD, CBM and Geothermal environmental waste mud cleaning system.

The weighted mud flows to the inlet head section of the desander and/or desilter entering the hydrocyclones for separation of particles. Mud leaving the underflow is further screened with fine mesh to separate larger particles allowing only barite-size particles to pass through the screen.

Purpose of Aipu mud cleaner

The purpose of the mud cleaner is to remove drilled solids larger than barite. Solids larger than 74–105 micrometres can be removed by the mud cleaner before the viscosity builds up. Mud cleaner can effectively control weighted drilling fluid solid content. Prevent differential pressure sticking, adhesion stuck drill accident, reduce the drill string and the filter cake thickness on bond issues.

Why we should use mud cleaner in the solid control system?

Mud cleaners are equally effective for both weighted and unweighted drilling fluids and effectively lower both drilling fluid expenses and disposal costs.

As we all know that the main function of solid control system is to separate the drilling solids into water and mud, while in the whole working flow, we should use some equipment to separate the drilling solids into sand and mud firstly. Generally, we could use mud desander and mud desilter to solve this problem. However, mud desander and mud desilter are two items, which will increase the cost and time to use these two items.

Therefore, we designed the drilling mud cleaner to solve this problem. With the help of mud cleaner, we could separate the drilling solids into different sand and mud easily, and it could be handled easily also. That’s why mud cleaner has been popular used in drilling fields by almost all of the drilling service companies in home and overseas.
