In the Oil and Gas drilling field, for treating and dealing with drilling mud, there is not only solids control systems and waste management systems. But also, the liquid mud plants, which is also called as LMP. Besides the solids control system and waste management systems, GN Solids Control also have complete LMP or according equipments available.

 

What is LMP?

LMP is short for Liquid Mud Plant, which is mainly used beside a solids control system or other mud systems for storage the drilling mud. In order to avoid mud from settling, most important equipments used in LMP are mud agitators and mud guns. At a certain distance, usually every 3 meters, there is a mud agitator and beside each agitator, there is a mud gun. And also jet mud mixing equipments, like centrifugal pumps and mud mixing hoppers, used for adding and mixing the chemicals to the drilling mud and keep a desired mud proportion.

Who Use LMPs?

Anyone who use drilling mud in their projects or for their customers, may use LMPs. Those companies include but not limited to：

1. Drilling companies those who provide their customers drilling service with their own rigs and solids control systems.
2. Drilling Mud/Liquid companies, who do not participate directly in drilling works, but they provide drilling mud to the users and reclaim the mud back and save it for next use.

GN Solids Control also provide LMP to its clients both domestic and abroad. And also, some LMP users purchase equipments from GN Solids Control when renewing their LMP, because comparing with tanks, the equipments is to some degree consumable. And also, lots of large tank manufacturers have established a long-term co-operation with GN Solids Control by continuously purchasing mud agitators and mud guns from GN.

Next month, in November 2014, GN Solids Control will attend Abu Dhabi Oil Show once again, this time for ADIPEC, GN will come with GNLW363 high speed decanter centrifuge. And this centrifuge now is for sale in advance.

As is known to all, Abu Dhabi Oil Show is a feast of oil and gas industry for the whole world, it has the similar fame as OTC in USA and even more famous than CIPPE in China. All companies attend that Oil Show always bring their best seller product or newest design. This time, GN decided to bring a set of GNLW363 Decanter Centrifuge, because this centrifuge is our top seller in this year. And it is welcomed by our customers.

Recently, several GN old customers asked GN for help, cause they wanted to use their GN decanter centrifuges designed for 460V/380HZ in condition of 380V/50HZ power source condition. Some of them purchased VFD control panel decanter centrifuges, some purchased fixed speeded centrifuges.

In order to meet their requests, GN electric engineer summarized below notes for instruction. Take GNLW363BG series centrifuges as cited example, cause this model is the most popular centrifuge of GN.

In case of fixed speed control panel centrifuge GNLW363BG:

For a fixed speeded GNLW363BG for 460V/60HZ, the standard speed is 3200RPM at 60HZ frequency. We can make it suitable for 380V/50HZ by adopting a transformer for the motors to be well functional, but the rotating speed will be less than the rated 3200RPM when the electric frequency is 50HZ, it would be around 2670RPM. In order to keep the ideal rotating speed, the end user need to add a set of pulley and belt for 3200RPM at 50HZ.

In case of VFD control panel GNLW363BG-VFD:

If the centrifuge is designed for 460V/60HZ with VFD control panel, in order to use it in 380V/50HZ, firstly, we need to add a transformer. But the transformer only enables the motor to be function well with new power source. But unlike the fixed speed, there is no need to adopt another set of pulley and belt. Only thing need to be change is some parameters in the control panel per GN engineer’s detailed instruction.

Besides this 14inch bowl decanter centrifuge GNLW363, GN Solids Control also has other centrifuges, nearly covering all necessary applications in field of solids control and waste management in drilling process. Like middle speed big bowl centrifuge GNLW452 for barite recovery, big bowl centrifuge GNLW453BG-VFD and GNLW553-VFD and baby centrifuge GNLW223 mainly for diamond drilling, and etc.

Welcome to visit our website or email to us for more information, and we can discuss what more customized requirements we could meet for you.

As the only China manufacturer who can produce both vertical cutting dryer and big bowl centrifuges, GN Solids Control has a wide range of centrifuge options. And, of course, the feeding pump is important, too. Besides main equipments for drilling solids control and waste management systems, GN also produce and provide feeding pumps for main equipments.

 Normally, for centrifuge feeding pumps, there are 2 options, which are submersible slurry pump and positive displacement pump.

1. GN submersible slurry pump. In fact, submersible slurry pump is a vertical centrifugal pump, similar function and working principal as normal centrifugal pumps with a single suction system. GN series submersible slurry pumps are made of anti-abrasion alloy and capable of conveying high concentration particles. Because there is no bearing or seal between the impeller and pump body, there is no need to maintenance. And it can resist a comparably high temperature. It is not only ideal option as a centrifuge feeding pump, but also, it is always used as feeding pump for shale shakers of HDD or TBM mud cleaning systems for transferring mud from mud pit.
2. GNG series Positive Displacement Pump, also called screw pumps. It is a standard option for centrifuge feeding purpose, cause it could stably feeding the centrifuge without stirring up the drilling mud. The most important parts of screw pump is rotor and stator, by their specially designed shapes of those parts, feeding capacity and pressure are steady. GNG screw pumps can be driven by variable speed motor and speed could be adjusted accordingly.

Besides above mentioned centrifuge feeding pumps, GN also produce highly cost-effective centrifugal pumps GNSB series and GNJQB series shear pumps. The centrifugal pumps are widely used for feeding desander and desilter in a solids control system and used as mixing pumps also.
