The process of drilling mud removal in solids control system

Solids control is a technique used in a drilling rig to separate the solids in the drilling fluids that are crushed by the drill bits and carried out of the well surface. Normally, a solids control system contains five stages: solids control system  solids control  solids control equipment  drilling fluid cleaning system   shale shaker    desander  desilter  decanter centrifuge  centrifuge centrifugal pump   mud cleaner   vacuum degasser   Hydrocyclone cone    mud agitator    flare igniter     submersible slurry pump  mud tank    mud gas separator   Jet Mud Mixer    mud mixing pump   mud gun  screw pump    Shale Shaker Screen    shearing pump   Vertical Cutting Dryer. The shale shaker is used to separate big solids with diameter above 75μm, the desander addresses solids from 45-74μm , and the desilter segregates solids between 15-44μm. Sometimes the desander and desilter are combined as one high efficiency mud cleaner. When air enters the drilling fluids, a vacuum degasser is used to separate the air. If no air in the mud, the degasser would work as a big agitator. All these stages are mounted on the top of the mud tank. After separating the solids, the clean mud can be pumped into the borehole again.

The process of drilling mud removal
The primary and the first stage of solids control equipment is shale shakers which can conduct a solids removal above 75 microns and usually combined with other solid control equipment. The second and third stage equipment are desanders that removes cuttings of 45-75 microns and desilters which do a separation between 15~45 microns. The desander and desliter can be work together to be served as a drilling mud cleaner. Then, the last stage is decanting centrifuge which can remove the particles above 2 microns. After these steps, the drilling solids will be removed and the recycle and reuse of drilling mud can be achieved.
