GN Solids Control is close to finalizing the assembly of a new batch of screw conveyors. The screw conveyors are designed to significantly improve the efficiency of drilling operations. These screw conveyors are essential for the collection and transfer of drilling cuttings generated in oil and gas drilling field. It is a critical process in the oil and gas drilling mud systems.
Engineered for versatility, these screw conveyors are intended to work seamlessly with drilling mud shale shakers and mud cleaners. By efficiently moving drilling cuttings, they help maintain the optimal performance of these crucial pieces of equipment, ensuring that the drilling process runs smoothly and without interruption.
Beyond their primary function, these screw conveyors are also capable of serving as discharge augers for the decanter centrifuge and the vertical cuttings dryer. Decanter centrifuges are essential for separating solids from drilling fluids, while vertical cuttings dryers reduce the oil content in drilling cuttings. It can reduce the Oil on cuttings (OOC) to 3% ~ 5%. When used as discharge augers, the screw conveyors ensure that processed materials are transferred efficiently, supporting an effective waste management system.
Constructed with high-quality materials, these screw conveyors are built to withstand the harsh conditions of drilling environments. Their robust design ensures reliable performance with minimal maintenance, reducing operational downtime—a crucial aspect in managing the costs of drilling projects.
The top covers of the screw conveyor can be gratings and metal plate. There are hinges on one side of the auger frame, which is used for locks / bolts on the other side.
There are grab line and pull cord switch connected to the grab cable looping on top of the auger covers for automatic power trip when the top cover is opened up from closed position.
As the assembly of this batch of screw conveyors reaches its final stages, GN Solids Control reinforces its dedication to delivering advanced solutions that meet the evolving needs of the drilling industry. These screw conveyors are poised to play a key role in enhancing the efficiency, environmental responsibility, and overall productivity of drilling operations.
