Deep well drilling projects usually operate with higher mud density, larger circulating volumes, and more demanding solids control requirements than conventional drilling operations. To handle these conditions, GN SOLIDS CONTROL provides the GN Double Deck Shale Shaker, designed to offer larger screening capacity within a compact footprint while maintaining stable performance in harsh drilling environments.
Compared with a conventional single-deck shaker, a double deck shale shaker provides two screening surfaces for more flexible solids separation. This configuration is especially suitable for deep well drilling projects where high flow rate, heavy drilling fluid, and limited rig space are major considerations. The upper and lower decks can be equipped with different API mesh screens according to the required separation performance.
For deep well applications, shale shakers must provide strong vibration, reliable structural strength, easy screen replacement, and stable operation under continuous heavy-duty service. GN shale shakers are designed with high-quality vibration motors, reinforced screen baskets, adjustable deck angles, and durable composite frame shale shaker screens. These features help improve fluid recovery, reduce drilling fluid losses, and maintain consistent solids removal efficiency.
GN SOLIDS CONTROL can supply both onshore and offshore shale shaker solutions. For drilling waste management, the High G Drying Shaker can be used to recover more valuable drilling fluid from cuttings before further treatment. GN also provides the COMBO SHALE SHAKER (Mud Cleaner), integrating shale shaker, desander, and desilter functions for compact and efficient solids control.
A complete deep well drilling solids control and waste management system can also include screw conveyor equipment for cuttings transportation and a decanter centrifuge for fine solids separation. GN decanter centrifuges are available with VFD, FHD, or fixed speed control for option, allowing customers to select the appropriate control mode according to drilling conditions and operating requirements.
With integrated equipment design and manufacturing capability, GN SOLIDS CONTROL can provide customized solids control packages for demanding deep well drilling projects, helping drilling contractors achieve efficient mud recovery, reliable solids separation, and stable long-term operation.
