Drilling fluid processing
Solids Control
Shale shakers, mud cleaners, desanders, desilters and decanter centrifuges for drilling rigs.
Overview
Clean mud drills faster and costs less. A solids-control system strips drilled cuttings out of the drilling fluid in stages, from coarse screening on the shale shaker down to fine particles in the decanter centrifuge, so the fluid can go back down the hole.
We supply each stage and its spares, including screens, cones and wear parts, sized to your rig’s circulation rate and mud system.
Principal brands
