Liquid Mud Plant (LMP): Modern, Efficient, and Environment-Friendly Mud Management Solution
2025-11-24
The Liquid Mud Plant (LMP) is an integrated system designed for projects requiring reliable, large-scale drilling mud storage and processing.
It combines storage, mixing, purification, recirculation, and solid-waste separation into one complete solution—built to meet modern engineering and environmental standards.

1. What the LMP System Does?
The LMP system provides a full mud-management workflow:
✔ Storage
Large-capacity vertical tanks for efficient, space-saving mud storage.
✔ Mixing & Conditioning
Automated systems maintain accurate mud density and viscosity.
✔ Purification
Multi-stage equipment removes harmful solids and contaminants.
✔ Circulation & Reuse
Purified mud is recycled in a closed-loop system, reducing material consumption.
✔ Solid Waste Separation
Cuttings and waste are dehydrated into dry cakes for easy, low-cost disposal.
2. Why Choose the KOSUN LMP System?
✔ Space-Efficient Design
Vertical tanks reduce land usage by 40%+ compared to traditional horizontal tanks.
Ideal for urban sites, factory environments, and projects with limited space.
✔ Modular and Flexible
Modules can be added, removed, or rearranged depending on project needs.
Quick installation and relocation increase equipment utilization.
✔ Intelligent Operation
Smooth tank interiors with anti-settlement features prevent solids from accumulating.
Automated dosing and mixing ensure consistent mud quality at all times.
✔Cost Reduction
High mud recycling rate lowers material costs.
Solid-waste reduction lowers transportation and disposal fees.
Automation minimizes labor requirements and operational risks.
✔ Environmentally Compliant
Fully enclosed operation prevents leakage and protects soil and groundwater.
Meets strict environmental regulations for waste management.
Supports green, clean, and responsible project execution.
3. How the System Works
Step 1:Mud Storage
Large vertical tanks hold up to 7,500 / 15,000 / 30,000 / 45,000 BBL based on project needs.
Step 2: Mud Mixing
Automated mixers adjust density and viscosity to required values.
Step 3: Mud Purification
Multi-stage purification (shale shaker, desander, desilter) removes unwanted solids.
Step 4: Mud Reuse
Clean mud is pumped back for drilling, tunneling, or other operations.
Step 5: Solid Waste Processing
Separated solids are dehydrated into dry cakes for easy transport and disposal.
4. Application Industries
The LMP system is suitable for all mud-intensive operations, including:
Oil & gas drilling
Horizontal directional drilling (HDD)
Piling and foundation engineering
Tunnel boring and excavation
River dredging
Industrial mud recycling projects
5. Your Partner in Efficient Mud Management
The LMP is not just a piece of equipment—it is a complete solution designed to:Improve operational efficiency
Reduce overall project cost
Ensure safer and greener construction
Support high-quality drilling and excavation results
