Drilling Waste Management Approach and Method

Drilling waste management is a hot topic these years with global attention to environmental protection, especially in Oil & 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.
Drilling 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 drilling 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 drilling waste is core drilling, which instead produces solid cylinders of rock or soil. In cable-tool drilling, the drilling waste is periodically bailed out of the bottom of the hole. In auger drilling, drilling waste is carried to the surface on the auger flights.
H-G Dryer
In the past, human has less attention to environment protection. The drilling waste, after solid control system, usually directly disposed to pit and then land-filled near drilling field. This method is commonly named Burial. However, land-filled usually results in anaerobic conditions, which limits any further degradation when compared with drilling waste that is land-farmed or land-spread, where aerobic conditions predominate.
Vertical Cuttings Dryer 
It may be necessary to follow steps to ensure the hydrocarbon and chloride content is lowered within the governing bodies standards before reusing or recycle the drilling waste.
 
Centrifuge
Here KOSUN drilling waste management equipment, such as vertical cuttings dryer, auger, h-g dryer, centrifuge are introduced to prevent environment pollution. This process allows the circulating fluid return to the drilling process for recycle, while drilling waste is then studied by mud engineers and well loggers before proper disposal for further value realization.

Drilling Cuttings & Drilling Waste Separation Development

Drilling waste separation from the mud at the sedimentary rock shakers is also coated with such a lot mud that   square measure|they're unsuitable for the  drilling fluid recycle or disposal step or are tough to handle or transport. Constituents of the drilling cuttings or the mud coating them, like oil or metals, could leach from the drilling waste, creating them unsuitable for land application or burial needs. forms of materials will be other to drilling cuttings to solidify and stabilize them.  Solidification could be a technology that encapsulate the drilling waste  in an exceedingly monolithic solid of high structural integrity. The encapsulation is also of fine drilling waste particles or of an outsized block orinstrumentality  of drilling cuttings .  Solidification doesn't essentially invol...

Drill Cuttings Disposal Management

Drill cuttings disposal is a hot topic these years with global attention to environmental protection, especially in O il & gas industry.

Screens Types Selection and Usage in Shale Shakers

S olids control equipment s hale shakers typically co mposed  of wire mesh  shaker screens  in  kinds of  mesh sizes that vibrate the drill waste  across and off the shaker screens as the drilling fluid or drilling mud flows through shaker screen s   in the solids control system and back into mud system.  Usually there are  three types of shaker screens for different shale shakers, including  PWP screen, PMD screen, and hook strip screen. PMD scree is Derrick ’ s patented products for Derrick 2000 series and Derrick 500 series shale shakers. While hook strip screens  and PWP screens are w idespread a pplication to  world famous shale shakers like brand Derrick, Brandt , M-I SWACO, and KOSUN. The steel frame shaker screen  is the most commonly shaker screens composed of steel frame and two or three  layers SS304  cloth.   Frame shaker screen  is commonly used ...
