Drilling fluid is indispensible in the oil drilling operation, but it costs a lot at the same time. It is necessary to recycle and reuse the drilling mud during the process of digging oil wells. Decanter centrifuge is designed for barite recovery and dewatering in global drilling projects where the best efficient fluids/solids separation is required. Here is some information of the KOSUN LW series decanter centrifuge.

Drilling decanter centrifuge application:

KOSUN LW series decanter centrifuge is used in separating suspension of solid phase with particle diameter(d≥2μm) for drilling mud and fluids handling. Ruggedly built for oilfield and industrial services, it is especially effective in environmentally sensitive areas. It delivers high fluid-recovery rates and efficient solids control to significantly reduce the costs of makeup fluids and disposal. The centrifuge must test the dynamic balance for smooth operation over long periods. Speed ranging from 0 to 3900 RPM and generating centrifugal forces reach up to 3000G.

Oilfield decanting centrifuge features & benefits

• Innovative design includes longer bowl for increased retention time, resulting in drier solids and finer cut points

• Big bowl Big Volume, high G force available

• Stainless steel bowl, scroll, compartment and cover resist corrosion and provide long service life.

• Tungsten carbide scroll points with wide spacing flights at tapered end create a finer layer of conveyed solids for consistent, uniform separation and maximum solids control efficiency.

• German FAG or Sweden SKF brand bearings

• Electrical Components: SIEMENS/Schneider ATEX or IEC Ex for option.

• Screw pump & centrifugal pump feeding pump option available to meet different application.

KOSUN decanter centrifuge can meet with different requirements of mud treatment under various drilling conditions that can do sedimentation and separation for particles more than 2 um. After being treated, the mud can achieve ideal viscosity and proportion, resulting in better recycling, high efficiency, saving and environment protection.
