Solids Control | GN Decanter Centrifuge

2 units of drilling cuttings transfer vacuum pump to South America

This week GN solids control shipped 2 units of drilling cuttings transfer vacuum pump to Argentina, this is used together with 2 sets of drilling waste management system shipped in May, 2017. The client also bought 4 sets of cuttings screw conveyor to transfer the drilling cuttings.

Both of the cuttings vacuum pump and screw conveyor can be used to transfer the drilling cuttings to the vertical cutting dryer, also called vertical G dryer. The discharged solids from vertical cuttings dryer with OOC < 5%, the discharged fluids are transferred to the decanter centrifuge by screw pump. The vertical cuttings dryer and decanter centrifuge are the major equipments for drilling waste management system.
How to install the vacuum pump in the jobsite besides the vertical cuttings dryer?
The vacuum pump can replace the screw conveyor when the fluids content is higher in the drilling cuttings, GN will provide chargable material collection hopper to install on the top inlet of the vertical cuttings dryer. The vacuum pump will suck the drilling cuttings/ oil sludge from the waste pit with hose, the discharge line is also connect with the vertical cuttings dryer inlet top.
When the solids content is higher in the drilling cuttings, the client will use 2 sets of screw conveyor, one set is installed horizontally to collect the drilling cuttings from the solids control system, the other set is installed inslantly with less than 45 degree angle from the underground. The 2nd screw conveyor will transfer the drilling cuttings to vertical G dryer. Pls check the working video of the vacuum pump to transfer drilling cuttings or oil sludge from GN solids control wedsite.

Chemical substance enhancing centrifuge system intended for oily sludge

Compared with drilling cuttings (discharged
from shale shaker), oil sludge much more difficult to be treated along with
recycled. To have better perception of oily sludge, we have to understand what
oily sludge is as well as where it is from. Could you get more info from a
search engine engine. And from under chapter, we can know how to cure the oily
sludge and results we can get after therapy.

GN Equips the Solids Control Equipment with Own Fabricated Control Panel

You know why in the industry of drilling fluid
solids control equipment manufacturing, GN Solids Control always keeps the
leading position? Besides GN’s keeping improving the products quality, the continuous
launch of new products is also a factor. From the manufacturer of primary
solids control equipment to the supplier of both solids control and waste
cuttings drying management solution provider, GN’s keeping improving is
obvious to all. Now GN can also equip our machinery with the control panel
assembled by our self.

In order to meet demand of oil industry,
all of GN’s control panels are flame proof type, or called explosion proof
type. Mainly GN has 2 flame proof types control panel: one is isolation
explosion proof; this type control panel has a panel case that could isolate
the flammable gas with the inner space of the panel. In case the wire circuit
produces spark, due to the isolation function, the flammable gas will get into
the control panel so as to prevent the explosion. Always all GN’s equipments
are equipped with this type control panel like the shale
shaker, vacuum
degasser and fixed speed decanter centrifuge as well as cutting dryer unit.

GN also has VFD control panel for the decanter centrifuge
and cuttings dryer unit. This is all because these 2 equipments will perform to
get different result when running at different speed, which could make the
equipment meet the demand of various working condition. GN’s VFD control panel
outside shell is stainless steel material with excellent appearance. It is
positive pressurized control box with cooling tube or air conditioner for
working in high temperature. The VFD is ABB or Siemens brand. PLC smart control
with HMI interface is for manual and automatic operation and protection.

All GN’s control panels except VFD type are
Ex marks as Ex d II Bt4 for Class 1, Division 2 application. All the positive
pressurized VFD control panels are Ex mark as EXdeib PZ IIB T6 for Class 1,
Division 2 application. ATEX and IEC explosion proof certified are also
optional upon request.

Positive pressurized VFD control panel for variable speed decanter centrifuge

As one the lead decanter centrifuge
manufacturers in the world, GN solids
control( with branch office GN solids America in Houston) provide both high
speed decanter centrifuge and variable speed decanter
centrifuge with VFD control panel, VFD decanter centrifuge the most popular
model during our clients from over 60 countries in the world.

We provide 4 types VFD control panel of
decanter centrifuge based on different clients requirements:

1 positive pressurized VFD control panel for
explosion proof Exd II BT4 with PLC control

2 positive pressurized VFD control
panel with IEC certificate with PLC control

3 positive pressurized VFD control panel with
ATEX certificate with PLC control

4 flame proof/ explosion proof control panel

The positive pressurized VFD control panel is
specially designed for the working site with high temperature, moist air, heavy
rain, strong sunshine area with good performance. To ensure the long operation
life, we also suggest to use a sun/rain proof cover on top of the centrifuge
unit, as GN
drilling waste management project in Sichuan, China, Where is a lot of rain
and very moisture air.

With air cooler inside the control cabinet, we
have a temperature sensor installed and setting according the environmental
temperature and client’s requirement, once the inside temperature reached the
setting value, the cooler unit will start to work and feed to the inside
cabinet cold air and let the warm air out, the constantly circulation make the
inside cabinet to remain the respectively cool and will not be too hot during
long term working in the hot weather.

PLC control VFD control panel change the
frequency smartly, the last flame proof/ explosion proof control panel can not
work in hot weather, the electric components will be too hot to stop working or
be burned when it becomes hot. And the frequency inverter is working through
very traditional way. Such products are only supplied to the cold area or when
cheapest price is required by the client.

How Does the Cyclone Work as a Solids Control Equipment

The persons who are in the drilling
industry may might not unfamiliar to the cyclone unit. The cyclone units always
get into to our view as a de-sander, de-silter or even mud cleaner equipment. These items belons to the solids
control equipment which is used to recycling the drilling mud to reduce the
drilling cost, and for some environmental friendly purpose.

As per the diameter of the cyclone straight
body part, the cyclone units are divided into 2 types. The units with a
diameter larger no less than 6 inch would be call as de-sander cyclone, while
others smaller than 6 inch would be defined as de-silter unit. The cyclone unit
is working by using the centrifuge force to separate the solid phase and liquid
phase.

Generally, the cyclone unit has 3 ports,
one is used for fluids fed in, and the rest 2 are separately used for liquid
overflow and solids discharging. The cyclone body was divided into straight
part and cone part. The fluids was pumped into the cyclone under the pressure
of 0.25-0.4 Mpa along with a tangent direction of the cyclone inner wall.
Rotating inside a cyclone at a very high speed, the solids and liquids would be
layered toward the cyclone wall with solids close to the wall and liquid in the
center.

So, how can the cyclone separate the solids
and liquids? At the bottom of the cyclone, there is a discharged port which is
a small hole. The high speed rotating layered solids would get down to the
discharge part and get out as a umbrella shape, high speed rotating makes the
centre of the discharge port a vacuum where the air can get into the cyclone.
Under the pressure of air, the liquid would overflow out from the outlet at the
top of the cyclone. Normally, the bottom discharged solids would have about
20-30 degree angle, much less or more would be treated as abnormal working
condition.

GN Solids Control always adopts the 10 inch
cyclone to be the de-sander cyclone which could
separate the solids with size large 45-70 microns. The 4 inch cyclone is used
as the de-silter to remove the solids larger than 15 microns. This cut point is
a very vague data. By compositing different size cyclone and under shaker unit,
GN
solids control could provide the de-sanding and de-silting unit for various kinds of drilling projects.
