In any drilling projects, especially for oil and gas drilling, a suitable amount and component of drilling fluid is quite important. That’s why all big drilling contractors have an efficient mud plant with mud tanks for storage and mud mixing units for preparing drilling fluids.

As one of the leading solids control brands in the world, GN Solids Control has been providing the drilling liquid system or equipment to more than 70 countries in the world, including complete solids control system, waste management system, oily sludge treatment system, and mud plants. Recently, GN Solids Control just fabricated a mud mixing tank unit and quite a few mud mixing pump units for an engineering company.

1. Mud tanks: mud tank, just as its name, is used for storage the drilling mud. Considering its size, it should serve big enough volume and easy for transportation. In material, its structure should be strong enough to hold such amount mud and its painting should be anti-corrosive. Mud tanks should be equipped with some equipment like mud agitators, mud guns to keep the mud stirred up in order to prevent some chemicals to settle down to the tank bottom.In most cases, end users prefer horizontal tanks like the container shape for easy locating and transportation. But in some places, they prefer cylinder ones to save foot prints. GN Solids Control has both tank types available.

2. Mud mixing pump is always a centrifugal pump to be linked to a mixing hopper. Sometimes, the hopper and pump are located on same skid, while in some cases, the hopper could be located on tank top, while the pump on tank side. GNSB series centrifugal pumps are of high quality by using hard ductile alloy for impeller and pump casing material. The pump pedestal is welded as a whole to ensure the accuracy and good performance. All spare parts interchangeable with Mission Magnum, with mechanical seals.
