Linear Motion Drilling Mud Equipment Drilling Mud Cleaner

Linear motion drilling mud cleaners used in oil and gas field drilling

Mud cleaner is important equipment for oil and gas field drilling or exploration. Usually mud cleaner is linear motion. However, according to Oil drilling mud solids control mud conditioner is a hot sale product at AIPU Solids Control. There are many different configuration. Such as cones quantity, bottom shaker, electrical system, and so on

It's also referred to Mud conditioner. It's an equipment consisting shaker, desander cone and desilter cone. We call it three in one, too. For oil drilling mud process, desander cone is sized 8-12''. The desilter cone is 4'' or 5''. Different size cones hold different treating capacity. When we confirm the configuration or design on mud cleaner, we should consider the general flow rate of all cones. For example, 4" cone capacity is about 20m³/h and we request 240m³/h flow rate we need to configure 12 cones at least. To consider some heavy mud and large solids content we suggest 125% of rated capacity.

Drilling mud is transferred to cones by centrifugal pump from the shaker tank. Desander cone and desilter cone are fed by different pumps. This will provdie better result. Under pump pressure the fluids will run into cones and flow with centrifugal force. Then the heavy particlas will deposit down and pushed out of cone drop in Apex.

After the mud cleaner processing, the solids larger than 15 microns will be separated out of drilling fluids. The drilling mud with solids spray out of cones drop down to bottom screen panel. Under vibration and filtration, the solids will be more dry and save much fluids for well drilling.The cleaned mud is transferred to centrifuge.

Cones of Hunter mud cleaner are all high quality polyurethane. Including 4'', 10'' or 12''. Such cones are durable and anti-corrosive, oil-resistant, high temperature-resistant. They are very suitable for drilling fluids process. For some clients, they prefer flexible capacity adjustment during operation so we'll install ball valves on the cones inlet line.

Some clients don't know the difference between desander and desilter. Actually, it's very easy to identify them. Bigger cone separate larger particles, smaller one separate the finer particles. And fluids will be separated by desilter after processed by desander.

Besides mud conditioner, the separated desander and desilter is another option for users. Please refer to information on desander and desilter for more reference. The bottom shaker under mud cleaner cone is used to dry fluids out of cone. So, the mesh size is rather high and the capacity is enough for discharge from cone but not same as previous shaker

Plese check below technical specification of mud cleaner for your reference.
