It is widely recognized as a key piece of equipment within the drilling mud system because its performance directly affects the efficiency of the entire solids control system. The supplied units are engineered to provide effective primary separation of large drill cuttings, ensuring that downstream equipment operates under optimal conditions.

2. Two Units of Mud Cleaners (GNZJ Series)

The GNZJ mud cleaner is a standard model within our product line. It combines desander and desilter hydrocyclones mounted over a fine-mesh shale shaker, delivering efficient secondary and tertiary solids removal. Our mud cleaner is designed to meet almost all requirements for oil and gas well drilling fluids treatment systems as well as HDD mud recycling systems. For customers with special needs, we can design customized, cost-effective mud cleaners based on specific application requirements.

3. Four Units of Decanter Centrifuges

GN designs and manufactures both decanter centrifuges and three-phase centrifuges for industrial separation applications. The solid bowl decanter centrifuge has operated according to the same basic principle since the 19th century, but GN has advanced the technology by designing specific centrifuges tailored to particular separation tasks. The use of resilient, high-quality materials has significantly improved centrifuge performance and service life.

This shipment to the Middle East further demonstrates GN Solids Control’s ability to deliver comprehensive solids control packages that meet the rigorous demands of international drilling projects. We remain dedicated to providing innovative, field-proven equipment that helps our clients achieve operational efficiency and cost savings.

GN Solids Control is pleased to announce the successful shipment of a comprehensive package of solids control equipment and solids vacuum pumps to a client in the MENA (Middle East and North Africa) region.

The system integrates three core components, each engineered to perform a critical function in the overall fluid management and waste reduction process:

Vertical Cuttings Dryer: Designed to efficiently separate liquids from drilling cuttings, significantly reducing the volume of drilling waste for disposal. The vertical cuttings dryer is capable of reducing oil-on-cuttings (OOC) to below 5%, minimizing environmental impact and lowering waste disposal costs. Using centrifugal force, the dryer extracts valuable drilling fluids that can be returned to the active system for reuse, maximizing fluid recovery and reducing overall drilling expenses.

Solids Vacuum Pump: A pneumatic transfer pump specifically engineered to move high solids content materials such as drilling waste, oil sludge, and tank bottom sludge. Powered by compressed air rather than electricity, it is ideal for hazardous and explosion-proof zones, ensuring safe operation in challenging field conditions.

Decanter Centrifuge: Providing precision solid-liquid separation, the decanter centrifuge removes fine and ultra-fine solids from drilling fluids, controlling low-shear rate viscosity and recovering valuable barite.

This shipment to the MENA client further reinforces GN Solids Control’s position as a global leader in solids control and drilling waste management solutions. We remain dedicated to providing innovative, reliable equipment that enables our clients to operate safely, efficiently, and sustainably in the world’s most demanding drilling environments.

GN Solids Control is pleased to announce the successful shipment of a custom-designed drilling fluids mixing and storage tank system to an international oilfield service company.

The system features a robust combination of mixing tanks and storage tanks, engineered to efficiently prepare, condition, and store drilling fluids on site. Each mud tank incorporates essential components including mud mixing hoppers, centrifugal mixing pumps, and mud agitators to maintain consistent fluid homogeneity and prevent solids sedimentation throughout drilling operations.

The mixing tanks are equipped with venturi-style hoppers and powerful centrifugal pumps for rapid incorporation of chemicals and additives into the drilling fluid system. The storage tanks, available in both vertical and horizontal configurations, are designed for large-volume containment with integrated level sensors for accurate volume monitoring.

This modular allows for rapid deployment and easy configuration according to specific drilling site requirements. When integrated with other solids control equipment such as shale shakers, degassers, and decanter centrifuges, the solution enables oilfield service companies to maintain precise control over fluid properties, reduce chemical costs, and minimize non-productive time.

This shipment to an international oilfield service company reinforces GN Solids Control’s position as a trusted partner for turnkey drilling fluid management solutions worldwide.

GN Solids Control is pleased to announce the successful delivery of the GNTBM-500 Underground Engineering Slurry Separation Plant to a valued client in Asia. This advanced system is specifically engineered for underground engineering applications such as slurry shield tunneling, pipe jacking, and diaphragm wall construction, where efficient and reliable slurry management is critical to project success.

The GNTBM-500 is designed to deliver a robust processing capacity of 500 cubic meters per hour, ensuring continuous and effective treatment of excavated slurry. This high-throughput capability makes it an ideal solution for medium to large-scale underground construction projects requiring consistent separation performance.

Three-Stage Separation System

At the heart of the GNTBM-500 lies a comprehensive three-stage separation train:

Stage 1 – Scalping Shaker: Removes coarse particles and large debris from the incoming slurry.

Stage 2 – Desander: Eliminates medium-sized sand particles to protect downstream equipment.

Stage 3 – Desilter: Achieves fine solids removal, delivering clean slurry ready for recirculation.

This integrated approach ensures that the separation process is both efficient and thorough, reducing wear on pumps and extending the service life of the overall system.

Integrated Storage and VFD Control

The GNTBM-500 incorporates built-in slurry storage tanks and variable frequency drive (VFD) control, which provides smooth start-up, precise flow regulation, and significant energy savings. The VFD technology also enhances operational stability and allows the system to adapt to varying slurry conditions in real time.

Modular Design for Rapid Deployment

Understanding the demands of busy construction sites, the GNTBM-500 features a compact and modular design. This allows for a smaller footprint, faster assembly and disassembly, and easier transportation between job sites. The system is truly ready for rapid deployment, minimizing downtime and maximizing productivity.

This shipment to Asia further demonstrates GN Solids Control’s capability to deliver specialized slurry separation solutions that meet the rigorous demands of underground engineering projects worldwide.
