What is the working principle of vacuum degasser for drilling fluids mud system

Vacuum degasser actually is the 2nd purification equipment for oilfield drilling fluid. It is used to remove little invaded gas in drilling mud. It will be set between shale shaker and mud cleaner/desander.

In oilfield drilling fluid system, there are 2 types degasser. One is poor boy degasser separate large quantity invaded gas, the other is the vacuum degasser, and we also call it gas buster. Degasser in oilfield, main function is getting rid of invaded harmful or poisonous gas. To prevent blowout keep oilfield job site safe.

Vacuum degasser for drilling fluids solids control

1. Vacuum Degasser is also called mud/Gas separator. Mud/gas separators (Degasser) is the first units of solids?arranged to treat drilling mud. As such, they process all of the drilling mud from the flow line before the mud reaches the primary?shale shakers. The units have no moving parts and rely on the density difference between the gas and the mud for removal. The process is simple, yet very effective for well?drilling fluids processing system.

2. Vaccum degasser is used to remove the small entrained gas bubbles left in the mud by the mud/gas separator. These units are positioned downstream from mud/gas separators, gumbo removal equipments (if utilized),?shale shakers?and mud conditioners (if utilized), while hydrocyclone desander and decanting centrifuges follow in the arrangement.

Vacuum degasser working principle

Vacuum degasser is vertical type degasser. It consists of vessel, base, vacuum pump, gear box, internal blade. Basic principle is degasser adopts water circle vacuum pump. Based on vacuum gas or negative pressure the gas buster will remove harmful air rapidly. It is very necessary device in oil and gas drilling, explore well, and unbalance drilling. Adaptable for various well drilling fluid purification systems.

Furthermore, vacuum degasser also can filter some sundries out. This degasser has optimal structure and prime configuration, this help degasser reliable and efficient
