Professional at solids liquids separation, now GN road to the piling field. In Desander for Piling construction, we introduce the piling slurry recycle and the process of the piling slurry treatment. Now we are going to talk about the application and the desander for piling in the piling construction system.
Piling Introduction
Foundations relying on driven piles often have groups of piles connected by a pile cap (a large concrete block into which the heads of the piles are embedded) to distribute loads which are larger than one pile can bear. Pile caps and isolated piles are typically connected with grade beams to tie the foundation elements together; Continue reading “Piling Slurry Treatment”
The main function of the mud system of ZJ50 drilling rig is: recycle, clean the drilling fluids with debris from the wellhead. this system can eliminate sands less than 7μm in size, and supply drilling rigs with satisfied drilling fluids.
1. The installation
Level off the work site, set a good base. As show as figure 1 : install and fix GNPS70-3S shale shaker & ZQJ250 × 3 / 100 × 16 mud cleaner and jet mud mixer SLH150-50. connect all manifolds ,walkways, guardrails ,ladders, etc.. Ensure all parts flexible and on the good site. Connect inlet manifolds as showed. Connect all the solids control equipment control circuit connectors.
2. Working process of the recycling system
Firstly, start up the shaker box locking device of GNPS70-3S shale shaker & ZQJ250×2/100×16 mud cleaner (as to its operation please refer to the related user manual), and have a trying operation. And ensure all valves not been blocked . The butterfly vavles should be shut up while connecting the mud cleaner pipes. Send drilling fluids to the mud cleaner while bigger capacity needed.
The GN Ditch Magnet is a junk retrieval tool designed to remove metal particles from drilling mud. The Ditch Magnet Removing metal particles from the drilling mud that the shale shaker will not get. This unit will capture all metals having magnetic attraction and hold them until they can be removed from the mud stream. The Magnet is particularly valuable during milling operations. Removal of mill cuttings and debris reduces wear of mud pumps and other equipment, as well as eliminating problems caused by the return downhole of harmful debris. They are equally effective during washover and fishing jobs.
Construction of GN Ditch Magnet
Ditch magnet consists of a main body and a fixed support which are all made of stainless steel. The main body is composed of two layers, both top and bottom surfaces of each layer can adsorb scrap iron. The main body is made of imported magnet with the highest absorbability, which feathers high absorbability, large adsorption area and long service life. The installation method is: hang the fixed supports at the two sides of the ditch magnet to the mud with four 800 mm stainless steel chains.

Other Brand Ditch Magnet
Bowen Ditch Magnet Construction:
The Bowen Ditch Magnet features simplicity, ruggedness and high power-to-weight ratio. The 36-inch long Magnet weighs only 90 pounds and will hold in suspension as much as half this weight of mill cuttings. The design is clean; eliminating trays, gates and other auxiliary equipment. The magnet is encased in stainless steel and has integral handles at each end for lifting.
No special instructions are required to operate the Bowen Ditch Magnet. It is most effective when suspended by soft line in the mud ditch. It may also be suspended by soft line in the shaker discharge. The unit should be cleaned several times per day, depending on milling rate. Just remove the Magnet and clean with fresh or salt water hose. Wipe all cuttings from the unit and return it to duty. The unit may be cleaned less often during other operations when return cuttings come slower.
Driller mud system and GN Solids Control both are very famous drilling equipments company. Here I am going to compare these two companies.
Drillers Mud Systems, LLC offers a variety of mud pumps, mud mixing/ recycling systems, spare parts and tooling designed to fit in Horizontal Directional Drilling or Oilfield applications. It can supply all of HDD or drilling needs.
Slurry pump is widely used in oil&gas drilling work, mining programs and so on. Variable Frequency Drives Slurry Pumps is one kind of slurry pump, and main body is the same with other slurry pumps. And it usually not used so widely as usual ones.
Any way if you need to choose a right Variable Frequency Drives Slurry Pumps, firstly choose the right pump, then the motor, then maybe control panel is needed.
GN Solids Control supply kinds of slurry pumps for all kinds of application, especially in oil and gas drilling. If you want to get the right model from us, usually you must supply these informations:
1.the productivity (flow) you required;
2. the lift you required, or the envioment in your work site, is there any difference in height of the related equipments and others (mud pits for example).
As a yougn drilling mud system manufacturer in China,GN Solids Control started exporting business from 2008,just in 3 years,GN Solids has exported drilling mud systems and equipments to over 40 countries around the world.
Countries GN mud system been exported
GN has established agency in over 10 countries around the world and exported to more than 40 overseas countries : Australia , Brazil, Canada , India, Indonesia, Kazakhstan , Kuwait, Korea, Libya, Malaysia, Morocco,Nigeria , Poland, Russia, Singapore ,Thailand, Turkey ,UAE, Ukraine, USA etc. Many repeated mud systems customers proved our reliable service.
Why GN mud system can be exported to over 40 countries?
1)Top Quality:Standard manufacture for mud system,GN is an API & ISO certified company,assures you top quality.
2)Customized Solutions:With GN experienced engineer team, GN design and make both multi-tanks mud system and single tank smart unit according to clients requirements . Instead of a collection of equipments from various sources, the GN drilling mud system are field-proven solids-control components specifically designed to function as a single unit.

There are three kinds of drilling fluid, oil based fluids (OBF’s), synthetic based fluids (SBF’s), water based fluids (WBF’s). Every coin have two sides, three ways have there own advantages and disadvantages, but for water based fluids, one important factor is: enviomental friendly, while not delivering optimal performance in more challenging drilling conditions.
Enviomental drilling fluid is water based fluid, no need any biologichal process. Just screening, hydrocycling, decanting, and so on, only mechinical separation.

To know why people need to weight the drilling mud as operation goes,firstly,we need to know
Water-based drilling mud most commonly consists of bentonite clay (gel) with additives such as barium sulfate (barite), calcium
Drilling mud weighting system
carbonate (chalk) or hematite. Various thickeners are used to influence the viscosity of the fluid, e.g. xanthan gum, guar gum, glycol, carboxymethylcellulose, polyanionic cellulose (PAC), or starch. In turn, deflocculants are used to reduce viscosity of clay-based muds; anionic polyelectrolytes (e.g. acrylates, polyphosphates, lignosulfonates (Lig) or tannic acid derivates such as Quebracho) are frequently used. Red mud was the name for a Quebracho-based mixture, named after the color of the red tannic acid salts; it was commonly used in 1940s to 1950s, then was made obsolete when lignosulfonates became available. Other components are added to provide various specific functional characteristics as listed above.
While operation goes,some material as composed of the drilling mud above may lose.To keep the balance of the drilling mud,drillers need to weight the drilling mud by adding chemicals into the mud.Usually,a complete drilling mud weighting system is consist of following equipment or accessories.

About CSG (Coal Seam Gas)
As an end-use product, CSG is the same as natural gas, and can be utilised in all natural gas appliances and commercial applications.The difference between CSG and other natural gas is mostly how it occurs in nature. CSG collects in the coal seam by bonding to the surface of coal particles, whereas other natural gas is stored in the pore spaces between grains of sandstone or similar rock.
Coal seams in the ground are generally filled with water, and it is the pressure of the water that keeps the gas adsorbed as a thin film on the surface of the coal. The cleats, the fracture system of coal, may be interconnected and permeable. In a high quality CSG deposit the cleats are permeable enough to allow gas and water to flow freely through them.
The level of gas produced from a coal bed is dependent on the thickness of the coal, gas content, permeability and the depth of the coal seam.The coal seams that can produce CSG economically are usually between 200m to 1,000m below the surface.
