According to the environment protection laws and regulations in many countries, the drilling waste management system is mandatory for a drilling rig\u2019s solids control system. A complete drilling waste management system includes 2 systems, one is to treat the drilling cuttings discharged by the solids control shale shakers, which is used for reduce the cuttings for a safe discharge, and also for recovery of the drilling fluids. The other is drilling fluids waste management, which is used to remove the extra particles in the drilling fluids after a long time recycling in a solids control system.<\/p>\n

1. Drilling cuttings waste management system. In a word, this system\u2019s first mission is to minimize the cuttings to be discharged. Based on different mud type, the first separation equipment is different.<\/p>\n

1.1. For oil based mud, which is used in most of drilling fields, a vertical cuttings dryer<\/a> is more efficient. A vertical cuttings dryer is a high speed rotating machine which uses the centrifugal force to splash the liquid to through a mesh while the same mesh is used to block the cuttings. GNCD930 series vertical cuttings dryers can reduce the oil on cutting to below 5%.<\/p>\n

1.2. For water based mud, a high G drying shaker<\/a> is a better choice. It is similar as a shale shaker. And the main differences from a solids control shale shaker are: a high G shaker has a larger G force and the feeding of a high G shale shaker is like a hopper.<\/p>\n

2. The second step for separation, for both the OBM cuttings and WBM cuttings is always a high speed decanter centrifuge,<\/a> which is used to remove the finer solids particles in the liquid after the first equipment\u2019s work. Unless a solids control centrifuge, this centrifuge for drilling waste management is always equipped by a VFD control panel, which is more flexible for variable mud condition.<\/p>\n
