2 Phase Oilfield Drilling Mud Decanter Centrifuge For Oily Sludge Treatment

Product Specification

2-Phase Oilfield Drilling Mud Decanter Centrifuge for Oily Sludge Treatment

AIPU oilfield decanter centrifuge is equipment specialized in the drilling industry. the decanter centrifuge can effectively separate the unneeded solid materials in the drilling fluids, thereby ensuring the drilling fluids' reuse. while purifying drilling mud, it can also realize the recovery of barite. thereby ensuring the integrity of the entire process flow and providing a guarantee for the sequence of processes.

AIPU oilfield decanter centrifuges are widely used in oily sludge treatment, waste water treatment, drilling oil-based mud solid waste treatment, and three-phase oil sludge separation systems.

Why do we call centrifuge the 4th solids control equipment or the 5th cleaning equipment?

Because it's behind desilter cone or mud cleaner. The middle-speed centrifuge is usually fixed frequency and get rid of 5-7microns cuttings. While the high-speed one is usually VFD and separate 2-5 microns cuttings out of the liquid. 

The material of decanter centrifuge is stainless steel. The minimum grade is S.S304, and then S.S316, S.S316L, Duplex 2205. The screw impeller can be welded or coated with tungsten carbide for better anti-corrosive performance. This will help us to get longer service life and save time to maintain or repair

Besides cuttings separation in drilling mud, the centrifuge is also used to recycle some barite. And decanter centrifuge is widely used in waste management, oil sludge treatment more and more.

Your Advantages In Processing Drilling Mud and Emulsions:

• Reduction in disposal costs
• Reduction in the quantity of sludge in the closed system
• Cost-saving of up to 60% for maintenance and upkeep
• Reduction in wear, especially on the slurry pump and drill bit
• Extended sludge service life

Decanter centrifuge is also referred to as centrifuge decanter, decanting centrifuge.

In oil and gas drilling, we call then solids control centrifuge or drilling fluids centrifuges. Drilling mud is pumped into centrifuge by screw pump or submersible slurry pump. The treating capacity is from 40-65m³/h. Higher speed centrifuge process less drilling fluids or produce fewer particles. However, higher speed centrifuge separates finer solids out of drilling mud. Centrifuge mud source is in the desilter tank/compartment.

The decanter centrifuge bowl size is ranged from 450x1000mm to 530x1320mm. Different size drums will produce a different flow rate. Of course, the speed is not the same on all centrifuge.

Worldwide, a hundred decanters are already in use in the drilling slurry industry. Aipu solids control has a broad range of experience and numerous references that offer you decisive advantages:

• Decanters specially adapted to the drilling slurry, with special wear protection
• Production of the decanters exclusively in Germany, with high-quality materials and trained specialists
• Many years of experience and relevant specialist knowledge in the use of decanters for processing drilling slurry, drilling emulsions and drilling muds
• Inexpensive, worldwide aftersales service and a comparatively low amount of maintenance work
• Personal support, on-site service and project planning individually tailored to your requirements
