GN Solids Control, a leading manufacturer of solids control equipment, offers a comprehensive range of products tailored to meet the specific needs of Africa's drilling industry. Among its esteemed offerings are the GN desander and desilter, which occupy a pivotal role in treating drilling fluids.
The GN desander and desilter, classified as second and third-class solid control equipment, are designed to efficiently process drilling fluids. Their classification is primarily based on the size of the cone diameter. Typically, desanders feature a cone diameter exceeding 6″, while desilters have a cone diameter less than 6″. Commonly used models, such as the 8″ and 10″ cones desander, are effective in separating solid-phase particles ranging from 47-76μm in drilling fluids. Similarly, the 5″ and 4″ cones excel in separating particles sized 15-47μm.
Complementing this solid-phase separation system is the JBQ series mud agitator. This agitator, especially the models below 5.5 kW, employs a blender cycloid speed reducer, making it suitable for drug liquids mixing tanks. Its compact structure ensures minimal space occupation. On the other hand, agitators rated above 7.5 kW utilize a turbo and worm gear speed reducer, offering high torque transmission, stable revolution, and reliable performance. Common models include the JBQ5.5kW, JBQ7.5kW, JBQ11kW, and JBQ15kW. These agitators are crucial components in GN Solids Control's drilling fluids processing system.
Moreover, the GNSB Series centrifugal pump plays a vital role in slurry, mud, or water transfer. It can serve as a feeding pump for desander and desilter or as a mixing pump for Jet Mud Mixer. Additionally, it finds application as a trip pump and supercharging pump for rig mud pumps. All GN model centrifugal pumps feature tungsten carbide mechanical seals and renowned brand bearings, ensuring durability and reliability. Their interchangeable spare parts with most international brand pumps facilitate easy sourcing and maintenance. The pumps' open impeller design reduces axial thrust loads, simplifying installation, repair, and maintenance processes.
GN Solids Control Equipment, with its innovative designs and robust performance, is a trusted choice for Africa's drilling clients. Its desander, desilter, mud agitator, and centrifugal pump offer a comprehensive solution for efficient drilling fluid treatment, ensuring smoother and more cost-effective drilling operations.
