Mud Gas Separator and Flare Ignition Device

Kick or blowout situation sometimes occurs in oil drilling industrial. The reason for these situation is that the annular hydrostatic pressure in a drilling well temporarily (and usually relatively suddenly) becomes less than the formation, or pore, pressure in a permeable section downhole, and before control of the situation is lost. That is dangerous.How should we solve this problem in order to protect the security of the operators and environment, for the gas cut-in is always combustibel and poisonous? The answer is mud gas separator and flare ignition deviece.

Mud Gas Separator / Gas Buster
Mud Gas Separator is commonly called as gas buster or poor boy degasser which locates before the shale shaker in the solids control system. It captures and separates large volume of free gas within the drilling fluid. If there is a “KICK” situation, this vessel separates the mud and the gas by allowing it to flow over baffle plates. The gas then is forced to flow through a line and vent it to a flare. It is always safe to design the mud gas separator that will handle the maximum possible gas flow that can occur.

Operation principle of the Gas Buster
The principle behind the mud gas separator is relatively simple. The mud and gas mixture is fed at the inlet allowing it to impinge on a series of baffles designed to separate gas and mud. The free gas then is moved into the flare line to reduce the threat of toxic and hazardous gases and the mud then discharges to the shale shaker and to the tank.

Flare Ignition Device
You must feel confusing about how the gas be treated if we do not introduce ignition device to you. Flare ingnition device is the security and environment friendly equipment to process the harmful Combustible gas in drilling fluids. It has been widely used in petroleum drilling engineering matched with mud gas separator. After the gas flow in it, It can have the blown down harmful gas ignited and burned to prevent the environment and security from being endangered.
