Mud cleaner and drilling fluids centrifuge are 2 of the core equipment in a complete drilling fluids separation procedure. A mud cleaner is a combination of desanding cones and desilter cones, respectively for separation of particles bigger than 40 microns and 20 microns. And a decanter centrifuge is used for even finer particles with sizes ranging from 2 to 5 microns.

GN Solids Control is one of most well-known brands in the world for the drilling fluids equipment and system, who is professional in shale shaker, mud cleaner, decanter centrifuge, vertical cuttings dryers and other auxiliary equipment like pumps, mud hoppers, mud agitators and mud guns.

This project was for an international drilling company, who is only focusing on the top brands of equipment, and they are quite happy with GN equipment’s quality and reputation. They chose a compact mud unit with a mud tank holding one mud cleaner and a mud mixing hopper. 2 centrifugal pumps are used for feeding the desanding cones and desilter cones. Centrifugal pump is also one of GN core products, and GN use hard alloy as pump casing and impeller for longer service life. And GN Centrifugal pump has exactly interchangeable spare parts as Mission Magnum.

GN has quite a complete decanter centrifuge family, from 9 inch diameter bowl to 30 inch diameter bowls, among those centrifuges, the 14 inch diameter bowl centrifuge is the most popular model in oil and gas industry. Centrifuges for oil and gas industry could be divided into middle speed ones and high speed ones, and a GNLW363-VFD with vfd control panel could reach both middle speed and high speed by adjusting the data on a smart touching screen.
