Six Important Installation Steps about Drilling Decanter Centrifuge

As the most important equipment in drilling solids control system, decanter centrifuge is mainly used to separate the suspended mud with particles above 2 microns in diameter, and deal with the drilling mud and liquid.

Drilling fluids decanter centrifuge could finish the separating process due to the centrifugal force. The kind of solids control equipment is set with electronic box generating high-speed centrifugal force, which can speed up the setting velocity of particles in fluids and make the separation of particles with different sedimentation coefficient and buoyant density. The particle discharge is finished by the propeller. Under the action of the differential gear, the screw propeller and the drum form a certain speed difference. Settled particle on the inner wall of the roller is scrapped from the cylinder wall, down by helical blade into the small end of drum, and dehydration. Finally, the particles reach to the sand discharging nozzle, and was thrown into the drum. This drilling mud process from decanter centrifuge is finished.

1. the drilling mud decanter centrifuge should be installed in the place of entrance of drilling pump in the distance, guaranteeing the full mix of recycled drilling fluids.

2. Decanter centrifuge should be fixed firmly, the stands supporting the machine should be fixed on the surface of mud tank with supporting beam

3. When installing the oilfield decanter centrifuge, it is important to ensure the sand launder capable of extending out of the tank so as to discharge the sand well. At the same time, the sand tank should be connected with water supply pipelines, which are good to discharge the sand smooth

4. Drilling mud pump should be installed the proper position behind cyclones of the mud desander and mud desilter. The feed pipe and inlet pipe should be jointed close

5. it is also essential to connect the inlet pipe with flush water supply pipe on the tank and shunt pipe

6. the final step is to connect the power supply. The switch control between decanter centrifuge control box and the power supply should be maintained regularly so as to ensure the security.
 

2014 CIPPE is around the corner. It has welcomed by the companies willing to display the new researches, products and service. A lot of oilfield solids control equipment manufacturer have registered. KOSUN is one of them, applying for display area of 350 square meters. The number of stand is E2160. On the occasion, KOSUN will introduce a series of professional solids control equipment, drilling decanter centrifuge, shale shaker, mud desander, mud desilter and etc.
