The Kosun Solids Control System is a critical component in modern drilling operations, designed to remove unwanted solids from drilling fluids, ensuring optimal performance and environmental safety. As drilling activities become more complex, efficient solids control systems are essential to maintain fluid properties, reduce waste, and lower operational costs. Kosun, a leading manufacturer in the oilfield equipment industry, provides advanced solids control solutions that improve drilling efficiency and sustainability.

Key Components of the Kosun Solids Control System

The system typically includes several integrated pieces of equipment, each playing a vital role in the solids removal process:

1. Shale Shakers – The first line of defense, separating large cuttings from the drilling fluid using vibrating screens.

2. Desanders & Desilters – Hydrocyclones that remove finer particles to maintain fluid cleanliness.

3. Decanter Centrifuges – High-speed centrifuges that separate ultra-fine solids and recover barite for reuse.

4. Mud Cleaners – A combination of shakers and hydrocyclones for enhanced solids removal.

5. Degassers – Remove trapped gases from the drilling fluid to prevent hazardous conditions.

Advantages of Kosun’s System

• Improved Drilling Efficiency – Clean drilling fluids reduce wear on equipment and enhance penetration rates.

• Cost Savings – Effective solids control minimizes fluid loss and reduces disposal costs.

• Environmental Compliance – Proper waste management ensures adherence to environmental regulations.

• Customizable Solutions – Kosun offers tailored systems for different drilling conditions, including offshore and HPHT (High-Pressure High-Temperature) environments.

Applications

Kosun’s solids control systems are widely used in:

• Oil and gas drilling
