GN Solids Control is proud to announce the successful delivery of a new batch of Solids Vacuum Pumps to a reputable oilfield service company in Africa. This delivery marks another key step in GN’s continued support of international drilling and waste management operations, particularly in the African market.

The solids vacuum pump, also known as a pneumatic transfer pump, is a powerful and reliable tool for transferring high-viscosity and high-solids-content materials. GN’s GNSP series vacuum pumps are fully air-driven, with no electrical parts, making them especially suitable for hazardous environments such as oil drilling sites. The batch delivered includes GN’s standard GNSP-20B and GNSP-40B models, which are widely used in oil sludge transfer, drilling cuttings transportation, tank cleaning, and environmental waste handling.

These pumps are designed with strong suction power, capable of transferring materials up to 500–1000 meters away (depending on model and material). Thanks to their rugged structure and wear-resistant components, GN vacuum pumps are able to handle materials with up to 80% solids content and particle sizes up to 75mm.

For this particular project, the African customer required a reliable solution for moving oil-based drilling cuttings and sludge mixtures from various drilling sites. After a detailed technical evaluation, GN’s solids vacuum pumps were selected due to their performance, safety features, and ease of maintenance. The delivery also included hose kits, spare parts, and remote operation kits to ensure smooth operation and long-term support.

GN Solids Control continues to expand its presence in Africa, with products serving oilfields in Nigeria, Angola, Egypt, Algeria, and more. Our product line covers solids control equipment, waste management systems, and sludge treatment solutions tailored to harsh site conditions and strict industry standards.

By delivering this batch of vacuum pumps, GN once again demonstrates its dedication to providing cost-effective, efficient, and reliable solutions for oilfield operators worldwide.
