Solid Control & Drilling Waste Management Solution

Drilling waste management is a hot topic these years with global attention to environmental protection, especially in O il & gas industry. Drilling waste management  into environment without any treatment is strictly forbidden. So before disposal, a series methods must be introduced to treat the cuttings and make it reach to disposal standard. Drill ing   waste   is  produced as the rock is broken by the drill bit advancing through the rock or soil; the cuttings are usually carried to the surface by  drilling fluid  circulating up from the drill bit   by  rotary ,  percussion , or auger methods. The drill ing waste  is commonly examined to make a record (a  well log ) of the subsurface materials penetrated at various depths. In the oil and gas industry, this is often called a  mud log .   One drilling method that does not produce drill ing   waste  is  core drilling , which instead produces s...

During oil & gas exploration and production, there are lots of drilling cuttings  and fluid  generated. These drilling waste will leak into earth with time going which is great harm to surface and ground water and the surrounding environment even causes pollution, especially in sensitive area harmful to human health and life. Therefore, it is crucial important to drilling waste management before discharged. Here is a simple processing procedure for drilling waste management. The screw conveyor mounted under the shale shaker is used for collecting drilling cuttings from shale shakers and mud cleaners (desander or desilter), then convey the drilling cuttings to the H-G dryer for solid-liquid drilling waste management . There is one conical buried tank under the shale shakers for discharging mud and alleviate the grit in mud tank. Otherwise, if serious grouting off happened, the overflow mud will enter into the conical buries tank to prevent mud grounding...
