Recently GN was awarded a new order of 6 sets of shale shaker and 2 sets of jet mud mixer for an Indian drilling company. Till now all the manufacturing work has been done and it has entered the stage of commissioning and final testing before delivery. After all the work is finished, all the equipment will be loaded on the ship and headed for the Indian job site to help the customer executing their job.

This Indian drilling company owns their own solid control and mud recycling system. This time they just want to replace their old shale shaker fleet and change for the new ones. After researching and doing investigation in GN’s facility and make comparison with some other solid control equipment manufacturers, the customer finally impressed by GN’s product for its good quality and competitive price.

As one of GN’s core products, the shale shaker has many great features. The simple but all very functional structure can make the operator easily learn how to use it and maintain it. The special shaker bed seal design is GN’s patent and is welcomed and liked by many oilfield customers. All the steel structures have been heat treated which will guarantee the toughness and longevity. And one more thing needs to be added is that all the shaker screens from GN have been upgraded to the composite frame, which means the new shaker screen has better separation performance, much larger opening area which will make the shaker has larger processing capacity, and the longevity will be better which can make the job site work safer and the workers don’t need to change the screens frequently, it reduces the chance of accident. And the screens can be stocked over 5 years without being corroded or rusted.
The jet mud mixer is equipped with centrifugal pump which now is 100% interchangeable with Mission OEM pump. We believe more and more customers will like it.

As a world famous solid control equipment manufacturer, GN Solids Control now could be your one stop shop for solid control equipment purchase and solution provider. GN’s product range not only covers the traditional ones, such as shale shaker, decanter centrifuge, cutting dryer, mud cleaner, etc, but GN also develop some new equipment all the time, such as the vacuum pump.
Vacuum pump is also known as the solid transfer pump, which can transfer high gravity and high density solid, with great performance and less maintenance. Though this product is very tough, you still need to be carefully maintain it or it will cause serious problems. Here are some maintenance requirement for your reference.

Maintenance is the key segment to guarantee the vacuum pump running properly. It should be frequently to check and maintain the vacuum pump according to the instruction book. This is the main measure to reduce the downtime of the vacuum pump and keep the equipment running properly all the time. Should designate the technician who was trained with the vacuum pump technology to operate, manage and maintain the vacuum pump.  Vacuum should be periodically checked, maintained and serviced to guarantee the function and key parts and safeguard procedure of the vacuum pump under normal condition. And guarantee the vacuum pump working under good condition, and the guarantee the mechanical property and technical characteristic of the vacuum pump. Prolong the equipment longevity and lower the usage cost. A large scale maintenance should be done every 3 months, inspect the tank body, the usage of the combination of feed and suction pipe and discharge pipe, if found they are severely damaged, should exchange immediately. It’s only allowed for the designated and trained staff to operate and maintain the vacuum pump, and operate the equipment properly, strictly according to the operation use and maintenance procedure’s requirement

The vacuum pump is a very cost effective product and we believe there will be more and more customers like it and would like to try it. Welcome to visit www.gnsolidsamerica.com and please send your inquiries to USA@gnsolidscontrol.com

As the oil and gas exploration and production technology is improving day by day, the traditional mud recycling system is gradually replaced by automatic, systematic and close-looped mud recycling system. Cutting dryers is more and more used together with the solid control system in the drilling rigs to meet the critical environmental requirement. The cutting dryer can meet the environmental requirement and recover and recycle more material for reuse.

Among all of GN’s products, one of them is the star product, that is cutting dryer. No matter in the flow line for solid control or for waste management, it has shown great performance. There are two types of cutting dryer, fixed speed and VFD. GN can manufacture them according to different customer’s requirements and save money for customers. The screen bowl’s maximum diameter is 930mm. And there are three different kind of screens for your choice, 250 micron, 350 micron and 500 micron. The handling capacity is 30 to 50 tons per hour. Tungsten carbide protect the flights on the rotor from abrasive solids and ensure longer operation life. The special design of high pressure air knife can clean the basket screen automatically and easily, and avoid the screen to be blinded by the viscosity mud and water based mud. The flushing system with specially designed nozzles around the body of cutting dryer can avoid the liquid discharge channel being blocked by sediments. The lubrication system is electrically interlocked with the main motor starter to prevent machine operation in the event of low or no oil pressure to the gearbox. The VFD control panel can facilitate soft starting, fingertip control of the VFD system can change the motor speed and thus the G force can be changed to the working conditions. The VFD system is made by ABB or SIEMENS and it is explosive proof.

That’s the brief introduction about GN’s cutting dryer. Welcome to visit www.gnsolidsamerica.com and please send your inquiries to USA@gnsolidscontrol.com
