With the ever-increasing demand for energy in Africa, the drilling industry is thriving across the continent. To better meet the market demands, GN Solids Control has successfully developed and introduced its compact desander and desilter to the African market, garnering significant praise from numerous drilling companies.

The compact desander and desilter, crafted with precision by GN Solids Control, is an efficient and compact water treatment device specifically designed to treat water containing impurities such as sand particles and mud.

This dual-function equipment effectively removes impurities from the water during drilling operations, ensuring the purity of the water quality, and thus ensuring the smooth operation and extended lifespan of drilling equipment.

Utilizing advanced physical separation technology, the desander and desilter from GN Solids Control filters out large solid particles through specific sieve holes or grids. Simultaneously, it employs principles such as centrifugal force and vibration to separate fine particles and mud adhering to particle surfaces, resulting in purified mud.

The equipment’s compact design not only occupies a small footprint but also facilitates easy installation and transportation at drilling sites. Additionally, its durability, wear resistance, high-pressure resistance, and corrosion resistance ensure stable operation even in harsh working environments.

The desander’s primary role is to eliminate larger solid particles from the drilling fluid, including rock debris, gravel, and sand.

By leveraging the dynamic force and flow rate of the water, it efficiently separates these particles, minimizing wear and tear on drill bits and rods, thereby extending their lifespan. This, in turn, maintains the performance stability of the drilling fluid, crucial for the smooth progress of drilling operations.

The desilter, on the other hand, focuses on the removal of tiny solid particles.

Although these particles may seem insignificant, their presence can significantly impact drilling efficiency. The desilter’s unique working mechanism effectively removes these particles, further enhancing the cleanliness of the drilling fluid and ultimately boosting drilling efficiency.

In Africa, our desander and desilter have been successfully deployed by renowned drilling companies and have demonstrated exceptional performance. Even under continuous and demanding operating conditions, they have maintained stable performance, significantly extending the lifespan of drilling equipment and enhancing operational safety.

Moreover, GN Solids Control provides comprehensive after-sales service to its African clients.

Centrifuge Pumps and Agitators are indispensable equipment in the exploration and development of mineral resources such as oil and natural gas.

Their role is to provide stable mud circulation and mixing for drilling operations, ensuring the smooth progress of the drilling process. As a region rich in mineral resources, Africa’s demand for such equipment is growing day by day.

The mud agitator is an indispensable part of the mud solid control system in oil and gas drilling, usually installed on the mud storage tank.

Its primary function is to stir the mud and prevent solid particles in the drilling fluid from settling, thereby maintaining the uniformity of the drilling fluid and suspending solid particles. In this way, the mud agitator plays a crucial role in drilling operations, ensuring the stable performance and uniform mixing of the circulating drilling fluid.

The working principle of the mud agitator is relatively straightforward, as it generates vortex motion to enhance the stirring effect and effectively mix the drilling fluid.

It features a compact structure, small footprint, high torque transmission, smooth operation, and reliable performance. Some advanced mud agitators also employ specific designs, such as impeller and trays, to further improve the stirring effect and reduce the deposition of solid particles in the mud after shutdown.

The centrifugal pump is a mechanical device that utilizes centrifugal force to transport liquids.

Its working principle involves the rotation of the impeller, which enables the liquid to acquire energy in the impeller and generate centrifugal force, thereby being thrown towards the edge of the pump casing and discharged through the outlet. The centrifugal pump mainly consists of components such as the impeller, pump body, pump shaft, bearing, sealing ring, and packing gland.

The centrifugal pump boasts several notable characteristics and advantages.

Firstly, it exhibits high efficiency, enabling the rapid transportation of large volumes of liquid. Secondly, its relatively simple structure facilitates ease of operation and maintenance. Additionally, the centrifugal pump demonstrates high reliability, capable of stable operation in various environments. Furthermore, it possesses strong adaptability, capable of transporting a wide range of liquids, including water, oil, acids, alkalis, and more.

However, the centrifugal pump also has some drawbacks. For instance, when operating at low flow rates, it may exhibit instability, affecting its performance and lifespan. Furthermore, the flow rate and pressure of the centrifugal pump are significantly influenced by the rotation speed and fluid characteristics, necessitating appropriate adjustments during use.

When using a centrifugal pump, it is essential to strictly adhere to safety regulations and operating procedures. For instance, before starting the pump, it is imperative to ensure that the pump is filled with liquid to avoid damage caused by dry running. Regular inspections and maintenance of the centrifugal pump are also necessary to ensure its normal operation and extend its service life.

Overall, the centrifugal pump is an efficient, reliable, and adaptable fluid transportation device widely used in various fields such as petroleum, chemical industry, metallurgy, power generation, urban water supply and drainage. With continuous technological advancements and expanding application scenarios, the performance and reliability of centrifugal pumps will be further enhanced, providing more efficient, safe, and environmentally friendly fluid transportation solutions for industrial production and social development.

The Drilling Cuttings Dyer for Oil-based Cuttings is one of the important equipment in the process of oil and natural gas exploitation. It is used to dry the cuttings generated during drilling, reducing environmental pollution and resource waste.

Oil-based mud’s main components include oil, water, and various additives. Due to its special composition, oil-based mud has a potential significant harm to the environment and ecosystems.

The detailed analysis of the pollution and characteristics of oil-based mud are as follows:

Pollution:

The oil components in oil-based mud can contaminate soil and water bodies, affecting the ventilation of soil and the survival of aquatic organisms. At the same time, the additives in oil-based mud, such as heavy metals and salts, also cause pollution to the environment. These substances can affect the structure and fertility of soil, and may also cause toxic effects on plants and animals.

Difficult to handle:

Due to the complex composition of oil-based mud, it is difficult to handle. Conventional water treatment methods may not effectively remove oil and other harmful substances. Additionally, the storage and handling of oil-based mud may also raise safety and environmental concerns.

Harm to ecosystems:

Oil-based mud may have long-term effects on ecosystems. For example, it may affect soil microbial activity, thereby affecting soil fertility and plant growth. Additionally, oil-based mud may also have adverse effects on aquatic organisms, disrupting the ecological balance of water bodies.

GN solids control‘s Drilling Cuttings Dyer for Oil-based Cuttings adopts advanced technology and materials, with features such as high efficiency, stability, and energy saving, able to meet the needs of different clients.
