The bottom shale shaker model is same with the shale shaker GNZS594. The treating capacity is up to 1000gpm with 2ea of 10 or 12 inch desander cone, 16 ea of 4 inch desilter cone.
Except for shale shaker, mud cleaner and screw conveyor, GN also produce drilling mud decanter centrifuge and drilling waste treatment decanter centrifuge, vertical cuttings dryer and high G drying shaker,pls contact with GN solids control.

Drilling Rig Solids control equipments spare parts manufacturer in China

As a professional drilling rig solids control equipments manufacturer in China, we provide complete spare parts for our OEM equipments, and also replacement shaker screens for other brand shale shaker. Recently one batch of drilling rig solids control equipments spare parts are ready for maintenance of our solids control equipments. The list of spare parts including:
For Vertical cuttings dryer:


Different opening screen basket with scraper, Bell jar assembly with scraper, Rotor assembly with flights, Gearbox, pulley of power unit, air knife components, belt
The maintenance of the centralized lubrication system of GN vertical cuttings dryer is very easy, the user need to clean the oil tank regularly. If found abnormal, remove the screws at the four corners of the oil tank to separate the oil tank from others, tighten the 4 screws of the upper cover and oil tank. The mud discharged through the screen basket gap contains solid particles, which will damage the screen basket. When the solids layer increased to specific gap, the screen basket need to be replaced, otherwise the drilling cuttings dryness can not meet the technical requirement. Regularly check the wear of screen basket scraper, and adjust the gap between the scraper and the screen basket to keep the gap in a normal range.
For decanter centrifuge：


Hydraulic coupler assembly, Bearing block
For screw conveyor:
Variator, auger drive, hanger shaft


For screw pump:
Stator, rotor, universal joint, gearbox , variable speed gearbox
For VFD control panel, electrical parts and components, such as drives, PLC, pressure gauge, HMI Display unit, etc.
Except for these spare parts, we also produce replacement shaker screens for different brands shale shaker from API 20 to API 325 which comply with API RP 13C standard. If you need solids control spare parts and shaker screens, pls contact GN solids control.

Drilling Cuttings Vertical Dryer System for Middle East Client

Recently one set of drilling cuttings vertical dryer system are ready for delivery to Middle East Client, the client just finished inspection before delivery to inspect the fitting and performance of the vertical cuttings dryer system.


The vertical cuttings dryer system consists of the equipments as below:
1. Vertical cuttings dryer GNCD930G
2. VFD decanter centrifuge GNLW363D-VFD
3. Screw conveyor 2 sets, one as flushing pump of vertical cuttings dryer, one as feeding pump of decanter centrifuge, their control is inside the control panel of vertical cuttings dryer and decanter centrifuge. The decanter centrifuge VFD control panel
4. Screw conveyor, to transfer the drilling cuttings to vertical dryer system continuously. GN produced screw conveyor have been widely used to transfer drilling cuttings, waste sludge with high solids content but less moisture, industrial waste, etc. materials in the world. GN screw conveyor with each section standard length of 12ft, we can make it with different numbers of sections for different transfer length, as 12 ft with 1 section, 24 ft with 2 sections, 36ft with 3 sections, 48ft with 4 sections. There are sealing rubber between sections and fastened with bolts. The connecting shaft between the middle section and the adjacent blade shaft should be securely fastened with bolts, and the blades at both ends of the hinge bearing should have continuity. When the screw conveyor is installed slantly, GN produced telescopic bracket can be used for angle adjustment. The closed plate cover or grating cover can be selected as requirement.
5. Telescopic skid for decanter centrifuge and vertical cuttings dryer on one skid, for convenient transportation and operation. The telescopic skid can be made as integral skid or separate skid according to the site’s requirement.

OBM Vertical Cuttings Dryer for Several Africa Customer

Recently several packages of OBM vertical cuttings dryer unit are delivered to several Africa customers. Some clients bought single drilling waste management equipments, including vertical cuttings dryer, decanter centrifuge, screw pump, screw conveyor, spare parts,etc. Some clients ordered the complete vertical cuttings dryer package, which including vertical cuttings dryer, decanter centrifuge with its feeding pump, telescopic skid for the vertical cuttings dryer and decanter centrifuge, fluids catching tank as an intermediate tank, the VFD control panel and feeding pump are installed on the telescopic skid for convenient transportation and operation.


Since 2012 till now, GN solids control has sold hundreds of OBM vertical cuttings dryer package to Africa clients for OBM drilling cuttings treatment and volume reduction treatment before feeding to Thermal desorption unit. With reliable working,long service life, easy operation and maintenance, GN vertical cuttings dryer and decanter centrifuge has got positive feedback from our clients at site, especially for the steadily working under hot weather in Africa.


GN vertical cuttings dryer has been updated to G version according to client’s feedback, the lastest version design has been the most user friendly and best performance, it is the ideal equipment for OBM drilling cuttings treatment. GNCD930G-GP vertical cuttings dryer working principal is that the motor drive the main pulley, the main pulley drive the gearbox cover via belt, the gearbox drive the bell jar assembly and screen basket assembly. Fix the gearbox input shaft, to make the gearbox output shaft speed lower than gearbox cover speed, to drive the rotor assembly in a lower speed than screen basket assembly speed. Then, the screen basket assembly and rotor assembly form same rotation direction separation machine with proper differential speed.
