Nigeria is a beautiful country, though for the first instance, some bad things come to us before thinking about the view, market or anything else. When my colleage is really doing business with Nigerian people, we found some nice person, and always good to cooperate with them, then my colleague said, Im now half Nigerian.
GN Solids Control have done a lot of business with Nigeria companies, mud company, drilling contractor, servsing companies, and so on. This time, we sent 3 sets of drilling waste management system to Nigeria, and now my colleague is there for commissining. Then we get some testing video, pictures, with good result.

This Nigeria client is one of the big drilling contractor in Nigeria, the order is the third order for this client, before this order, client has ever bought shaker screens and 4 decanter centrifuges and one liquid mud plant from GN Solids Control. Right now, GN Solids Control is building another 2 vertical cuttings dryer and a number of screw pump and screw conveyors for the client.
It is modular waste mangement equipment, with certain modification on site, which comes to you in this way, the client lift the centrifuge in a much higher place. The client have 6 rigs, now they are equiping half of their rigs with drilling waste management system.
The list of the waste management equipment include:
3 sets vertical cuttings dryer
6 sets high speed VFD decanter centrifuges
9 screw pumps, with 6 for feeding decanter centrifuges, ther other 3 for flushing the cuttings dryer.
15 screw conveyors for transfer drilling waste to feed the equipment and discharge the solids.
To make sure everything goes perfectlly well on site, we supplly the client layout drawings, and 3D drawings to show all the needed details as instructions. This sweat action do not only save the commissioning hassels, also make everything, communications easier.

Cooperating with the famous German rig supplier T&T, GN has been one of the biggest mud recycling system supplier in Australian market for a long time. GN also have joined a lot of the impoartant times in this field, have been the exhibition for a few years. And in ASTT 2015, again, as the only Chinese mud system supplier in the exhibition, GN brought the most popular self contained mud system GNMS200G.

The GNMS200G mud recycling system including:
One Double deck shale shaker with screen area up to 2.2 m3,
and four 4 inch desilter cones is mounted over the up deck of the shaker unit,
One 11Kw centrifugal pump for feeding desilter,
and one 11kw mixing pump for the hopper are included.
All equiped on a 4mtrs mud tank, mud tank dimension is L4000×W2285×H2632; the operating dimension is also limited in: L4000×W2860×H3746

Fast & Economic Transportation:
Sea Shipping:
1 20ft container for the whole unit; even with necessary spare parts.

Inland transportation:
Only need fold down the lights, and walkways.
Folklift lifting

Optional chances:
Some clients may want to handle finer particles, then GNLW223G centrifuge is a good option to equiped with this system together.

Contact GN Solids Control for more details. This only list some highlights, freely to tell us which part you are interested in.

The market is pretty quite, but China drilling waste management market is booming. From a few years ago, when we decided to invest on the driling waste managment, we never estimated the demand will be far more than solids control system.

Beyond that, GN is the first company exported drilling waste management system to Russia, and at the first time, it is to big players, Baker Hughes. Now more and more Russian clients knows us, and get in touch with us. One more system to Russia recently.

After sent the unit to Baker Hughes, and get very good feedback, it becomes a very popular design, also more and more competitors do the similar modifications.

Basicly, it contains a cuttings dryer, and a centrifuge, c/w feeding pumps, flushing pumps, feeding screws, intermediate tanks, and flexible lifting frame supportings.

For more convenient layout on site, we also have separate modular parts options. This will be shown in Shanghai CIPPE exhibition.

Modular units for drilling waste management is becoming more and more popular, because of the small dimension and small weight, flexible for transportation and jobsite layout. Different kinds of soft pipes, screw conveyors and pumps are the blood vessel of the whole drilling waste management system, to connect the key equipment. GN Solids Control will take the key equipment to oil show.

For the all in one system, it is more convenient to move the whole system. And after settled, the postion of the equipment is certain, for long time operations, this is easier for all the on site operaters.

Remark: GN vertical cuttings dryer can also be used for WBM drilling cuttings treatment. Compared with High G dryer, the treatment results is much better, however, the power consumption is much bigger. The vertical cuttings dryer is 55kw for big size cuttings dryer (GNCD930 dryer) and 37kw for mini vertical cuttings dryer (GNCD730 dryer); only 3.88kw for High G dryer (GNZS594HGE-LD). Operation cost of vertical cuttings dryer and high G dryer is almost same. The most costly operation parts for vertical cuttings dryer is screen basket; the most costly operation spare parts for high G dryer is shaker screen. They both need to be replaced after some period use.

Also a lot of customized choices are availalbe, kindly let us know your requirement, then we can supply you with the right solutions.

The Final Stop / Destination of drill cuttings waste
We all knew that people are more strict on environment protection, for drilling waste, we know we need make it environment friendly, then dump. The final step of drilling waste cuttings waste is solidification, thermal desortion, injection back, or eat by germs. Solidification of wastes involves the production of a solid mass having sufficiently high structural integrity to allow transport and /or disposal of the solid without requiring secondary containment. This technology converts hydrologic sensitive liquid and semi-liquids waste in a physical form that can be stored safely.
Then it is part of the real nature, from the end to the beginning.

Drill Cuttings Waste Solidification Unit Introduction
It is not born for the oil drilling waste market, as we did not even keep in mind we need to do this before.
Mainly it consist of collection box for drill cuttings waste, cement, absorber, other chemicals. Screw conveyors to collect them all to the mixer, a big one collect waste, two small one collect from small box, but to the same end; another screw, a screw mixer.
The high-shear mixer mixes all the material, and push to the front at the same time. When the solids go to the discharge port, it is already mixed sufficiently, then discharge.

What do you want?
1) A final stop for OBM WBM drilling waste.
The drilling cuttings stabilization /solidification unit provide an effective method for processing oil- base waste and water based waste; In a result, it produces an environmentally safe, dry material that is acceptable for onsite, or land farming disposal at an approved waste facility.

2) An ONE STOP SOLUTION
Here we are!
After GN produced the solidification /stablization unit, now GN can do all this closed-loop drilling mud recycling process.
From Solids Control, to the cuttings dryer, centrifuge, then stablization unit.
