GN Solids Control is a top manufacturer of solids control equipment and waste management systems. As one of the key industries that use GN Solids Control equipment, Oil and Gas area is one of the most widely used one.
GN Solids Control is an expert to provide tailored mud systems based on customers’ particular demands. Now GN Solids Control product line includes: shale shaker (or Hi-G force shaker), De-Sander, De-Silter, Mud Cleaner, Decanter Centrifuge and Cuttings Dryer. Besides the above standard treating equipment, GN Solids Control also provides wearable products like shaker screens, hydro-cyclones (4inch and 10 inch )etc. By word of mouth, GN Solids Control won great reputation in the world, and until now customers from over 70 countries are using GN solids control and waste management equipment.
As it’s known to all, solids control and waste management equipment need to be explosion proof certificated in order to use in the oil and gas area considering the harmful air or dust in the drilling rig site.
According to ATEX Directive 99/92/EC or ATEX 137 Workplace Directive, it gives us the definition of different levels of dangerous drilling rig site environments. ATEX is classified into ATEX Zone 0, ATEX Zone 1 and ATEX Zone 2, the smaller no it has, the more dangerous it is. So ATEX Zone 0 is the most dangerous classifications which need to be pay great attention.
In many drilling rig sites or workplaces which may produce or contain explosive atmospheres, this is includes explosive air (gases, vapours and mists) and explosive dusts. In order to tell the difference of explosive dusts, ATEX is also classified into Zone 20, Zone 21 and Zone 22.
The explosive air is directly related to drilling rigs, oil & gas platforms as well as storage facilities. So usually when GN provides explosion proof standard solids control and waste management systems to drilling customers, we need to know what explosion proof standard suit for customers.

GN Solids Control has been manufactured thousands of decanter centrifuges since the very beginning. As the leading decanter centrifuge provider, GN Solids Control is only using top quality materials. By word of mouth, more and more customers are getting to know GN Solids Control.
GN Solids Control is an expert to provide solids and liquid separation equipment: decanter centrifuge, cuttings dryer, hi-G shaker etc are all GN core products. GN Solids Control is also good at providing a turn-key solution based on customers’ special demands.
GN Solids Control has been selling decanter centrifuges in North America for some years. Many decanter centrifuge manufacturers are using GN decanter centrifuges for separating solids and liquid. Several weeks before, GN Solids Control delivered 2 sets decanter centrifuges for one Canada customer, includes one 22inch rotating centrifuge GNLW553 and one 14inch rotating bowl centrifuge GNLW363.

1. GN 22inch Centrifuge
22 inch rotating bowl decanter centrifuge is the second largest one that GN Solids can manufacture. 30 inch centrifuge is also can be provided for larger volume treating.
GN 22 inch centrifuge is using duplex stainless steel 2205 (or stainless steel 2304). In order to have a good wear resistance, GN Solids Control is using tungsten carbide tiles and fixed them along the screw propeller. Solids discharge ports are also protected by tungsten carbide inserts or special ceramic.
On the two ends of the centrifuge, GN Solids Control is using genuine SKF bearing, which is easy to get in North America.
2. GN 14inch Centrifuge
14inch centrifuge is the most common used centrifuge for slurry separating. Treating volume is around 130GPM.
These 2 centrifuges will be used to treat the waste water or soiled slurry. GN Solids decanter centrifuges can also be used to treat oil and gas drilling waste, industrial water treating, hrdro-vac wastes etc.

GN Solids Control just finished the setup of one whole oil slurry treating system for one USA customer several weeks before. This whole treating unit was delivered to Middle East as they had won a project to treat one large oil slurry pit for Chevron.
Now this GN Oil Slurry System was setup and ready for connecting with electricity and water pipes and heating pipes. GN Solids Control sent one Electrician and one Mechanical Engineer to guide customer to setup this oil slurry treating system. GN Solids Control is especially good at manufacturing customized solids control and waste management systems based on customers’ special demands. This whole oil slurry treating unit is designed and manufactured after discussed with our USA customer thoroughly. It’s especially used to treat large density and high viscosity oil slurry, such as refinery oil, raw oil storage in tank bottom: oil, water and solids can be separated out as a 3 phase treating system.

Here are the main treating components in this GN Oil Slurry Treating System:
1. Premix and Heat Tank
Oil slurry can be pumped to the premixing and heating tank with a GN vacuum pump. After treated, the original raw slurry is thinned and has a good running feature.
2. Shaker Tank
Shale shaker is used to eliminate all those large solids. GN Solids Control also manufactures its own shaker screens. Some other replacement screens for Derrick, Mi-Swaco, NOV etc can also be manufactured.
3. Centrifuge
Decanter centrifuge is one key treating equipment to separate those finer particles. GN Solids Control also provides flocculent system in order to separate out those very finer solids.
4. 3-Phase Treating Skid
This 3-pahse treating skid is composed by GN Slant Clarifier, GN Oil &Water Separator and GN Storage Tanks (water tank and oil tank).
More info will be shared after this system running for a while. If you need any oil slurry treating system, feel free to connect with Thomas@gnsolidscontrol.com.

GN Solids Control just finished the manufacturing of some shale shakers several weeks before. With more and more customers give high remarks on GN Solids Control, GN Solids Control are selling more solids control equipment than before even the oil price is not higher than before.

GN Solids Control has been manufactured shale shakers, de-sanders, de-silters, mud cleaners, decanter centrifuges as well as cuttings dryers for many years, as a high technology company, GN Solids Control and Waste Management systems have been widely used in over 70 countries. Among them, GN shake screens are that one that sells most due to they are wearable parts.

As one key market of GN Solids Control, the Europe market has been using GN equipment for a long period. Those shakers were purchased by one old customer of GN who have used much GN equipment and always get excellent feedback.
There are many types of GN shale shakers, which are either assembled with USA Martin or Italy OLI brands vibration motors. GN Solids Control only targets to provide the most cost-effective solids control and waste management equipment to high end market.
As a leading solids control and waste management systems manufacturer, GN Solids Control has kept upgrading their products in order to meet the changing demands of GN customers. Many changes are made based on thousands of valuable feedbacks collected from different work sites.
For these shakers that purchased by our European customer, they will be used in several different large oil and gas drilling rig site. This customer also purchases some GN shaker screens. Actually, from the long run GN customers save a lot on the shaker screens investment. When GN engineers do the compare test in the rig site, they found that GN made shaker screens have almost the same separating performance and quality.

GN Solids Control has manufactured hundreds of mud tanks based on customers’ particular demands. GN Solids Control is especially good at providing turn-key solutions for customers. Although one hundred customers may have one hundred mud plants they want, today we would like to give you a rough idea on how the mud plants are composed.
So here are some main factors you should know, the first important thing you need to know is the total volume of the mud plant. This depends on the mud weights you will need to store for your customer(s) and storage for mud that is returned, base oil tank and pneumatic barite tanks.
Also, the type of mud/fluids that we will be handling. There be completion fluids, water base mud, diesel based oil mud and synthetic oil base mud?….As you know, deep water drilling operations need enormous mud volume…..from technical, economic & environmental considerations….can we, in the business presentation, look at the following : total vol 50,000 bbl ; 70,000 bbl & 90,000 bbl Or scale-able ( in each case there are also 10,000 bbl base oil tank , 200 mt for Bentonite silos & 1000 mt P-Tank with a scale for barite). Open to advice on all of these.
Often, premix is made in the Liquid Mud Plant, and is then weighted up on the rig. Rig returns are often stripped of solids at the Liquid Mud Plant using shaker/ desilter / High Speed Centrifuge system….please see item 4 below. Clear Completion Fluids – 3 stock tanks (1000 BBL each), 1 – 500 BBL Mix Tank + 1-500 BBL Blending Tank (side by side with two power packs / 6” X 8” CENTRIFUGAL PUMP WITH DIESEL POWER 671 / Mix Tank Feature: 4” Hopper, Grated Top with Safety Rails, 6” Fill Line 4” & 6” Suction Lines, 2 Adjustable Gun Lines – Blend Tank – Grated Top with Safety Rails, 6” Fill Line 4” & 6” Suction Lines, 2 Adjustable Gun Lines.

GN Solids Control is very famous solids control and waste management systems manufacturer. Until now, GN Solids Control equipment has been exported to more than seventy countries. GN Solids Control just provided 6 sets shale shakers and several jet mud mixers to one customer from India.
Although the global oil and gas market is still pretty slow, there are still some drilling activities in India. As one of the most important market, GN Solids Control has been providing solids control and waste management equipment to India for many years.
All those solids control equipment in this order will be used in one India drilling rig site shortly. GN Solids Control has been manufacturing shale shakers for many years. Shale shaker is one most common used equipment to separate drilling slurry or drilling cuttings.
GN Solids Control has been always working on designing and upgrading the current solids control equipment in order to meet customers’ changing demands. This year, GN Solids Control has modified the former shaker and upgrade it the F version.
There are many advantages if you compared with the former version shale shakers:
1. GN Solids Control provides composite frame shaker screens for our shale shakers. Composite frame shaker screens last longer, some of them are even better than the original shaker screens.
2. GN special designed gear handle unit is used to change the shakers pretty fast. Due to GN composite frame screens are very light compared to those metal frame ones, only one worker is totally enough to change the screens.
3. Heat treatment for the shaker, which can be used as drying shaker (G force up to 8.0G). Shaker deck is made of stainless steel material also embedded with GN patent rubber sealing.
4. Working angle (between -1 degree and +5 degree) can be changed easily by using the former mentioned gear unit.

GN Solids Control is a world leading manufacturer on decanter centrifuge. GN Solids Control has delivered decanter centrifuges to more than sixty countries. Just this week, GN Solids Control shipped one 14inch decanter centrifuge and skid to one USA customer.
This centrifuge is GN 14inch rotating bowl centrifuge; it will be used for soil remediation. GN Solids Control now provides two main treating systems: one is solids control system and the other is waste management system. As the core product, GN decanter centrifuges are largely used on the solids control and waste management area.
GN decanter centrifuges are widely used in various industries. Soil remediation is one new market for GN. However, all the slurry treatment is using the same separating principle, which is take advantage of the solids and liquid gravity difference.
Although GN Solids Control is a China manufacturer, GN Solids Control pays great attention to the quality control. GN Solids Control only uses top brands electrical components and mechanical parts, such as the electrical components, GN Solids Control uses ABB, Siemens or Schneider etc. And for the mechanical parts, GN Solids Control use genuine SKF bearing for the two main bearings on the decanter centrifuge.
