Mud gas separator is also called Poorboy degasser or liquid gas separator which is a common safety device in oil and gas drilling mud circulation system. The purpose of a separator is to separate free gas or mixed gas and oil from the drilling fluid and convey the gas or oil to a flare or holding tank.

Mud-gas Separator handles a high proportion of mud solids and may experience hydrate plugging as a result of gas expansion through choke. Design of our Mud Gas Separator is based on conventional process practice, involving a liquid seal system matched to an adequate gas vent.

Specification of mud gas separator
Temperature range : -40°C TO 75°C
Pressure rating : UP TO 15 BAR
Venting size : UP TO 12″
Outlet size : UP TO 10″
Dimension: Based on rig requirements.
Capacity inlet pipe (MIN/IN) : UP TO 125/5

DC Solid control supply both vertical or horizontal Mud gas separator and fitted with internal baffles and distribution nozzles but performance of the liquid seal is independent of these design features.

Mud gas separator is designed primarily for the removal of entrained gas, from the drilling fluid. The mud gas separator is designed in multiple capacities, to meet specific mud gas needs. But what should we pay attention to when use the mud gas separator.

Two situations can cause mud gas separator blow-through.

1. Friction pressure of the gas venting through the vent line exceeds the mud-leg hydrostatic pressure, resulting in evacuation of fluid from the separator. Friction pressure of the mud through the mud return line is considered negligible because of its short length.

2. Vessel ID is too small, causing insufficient retention time for the gas to separate efficiently from the mud. This situation is commonly called insufficient separator cut.

To estimate a peak gas flow rate properly, we must consider a “typical” kick. The typical kick will depend on the well location, depth, type size, and component ratios of influx. Kick data should be based on previous offset well data and should be a realistic worst-case gas kick.

DC Machinery developed the horizontal drill mud gas separator but also supplies any custom units according to customer specifications and preferences. We also provide complete system gas handling analysis to establish the capacity of the separators in conjunction with the vent line and mud seal.

There are three types of mud gas separator used in the oil well drilling. Closed bottom, open bottom and float type. however the closed bottom is most popular one. It is closed at vessel bottom with mud return line directed back to the mud tank. Mud leg is maintained in the separator by installation of an inverted U-shaped bend in mud return line.

There are three major types of mud gas separators that Tech-Fab fabricates:

Open bottom: These separators are often called “poor boys,” and immerse the bottom of the machine in the mud deposit.
Closed bottom: A closed bottom mud gas separator features a sealed base, which directs the mud return into the storage tank.
Float: The float design is similar to the closed bottom type of separator, except that it has a valve rather than a permanently sealed line for the mud return. Fixed or elevated pedestals are also used to mount the base.

Mud gas separator is commonly called a gas-buster or poor boy degasser. It captures and separates large volume of free gas within the drilling mud.For oil and gas well drilling, we usually set mud gas separator ahead of shale shakers. The drilling mud out of well bore will flow into degasser via the chock manifold.

DCZYQ Mud Gas Separator (Poor Boy Degasser) is engineered specifically for onshore drilling operations. The working principle of the poor boy degasser is simple. The drilling mud with gas mixture in the bore hole is transferred by mud return lines to the inlet of the mud gas separator, allowing it to impinge on a series of baffles which separates gas from drilling mud. The free gas flows into the flare line to be burned and the mud discharges to the shale shaker and to the mud tank.

DCZYQ series Mud gas Separator combined with the Electric Ignition Device can be used to ensure the security of drilling process. It is divided into the normal pressure Mud gas separator and pressure auto-control Mud gas separator according to the pressure.

To achieve great performance, we kindly suggest Q345B material to resist H2S air. And the pressure vessel certification will give user more confidence for some special working condition. At DC solids control, APMGS1200 mud gas separator is rather popular. Please find more information below.

The Mud/Gas Separator allows operators to circulate the drilling fluid by removing large pockets of gas. The gas cut mud enters the unit, where it hits a series of baffle plates. These baffle plates provide surface area for the dispersion of the gas cut mud.

The mud is routed to solids control equipment for further processing while the separated gas travels to the flare line at the top of the unit to be vented at a safe distance from the rig and rig personnel.

The mud/gas separator is designed to provide effective separation of the mud and gas circulated from the well by venting the gas and returning the mud to the mud pits. Small amounts of entrained gas can then be handled by a vacuum-type degasser located in the mud pits. The mud/gas separator controls gas cutting during kick situations, during drilling with significant drilled gas in the mud returns, or when trip gas is circulated up.

Three types of mud/gas separators commonly are used today: closed bottom, open bottom, and float type. The principle of mud/gas separation within each type of vessel is identical. Differences can be found in the method of maintaining the mud leg.

Commonly called the poor boy, the open-bottom mud/gas separator is typically mounted on a mud tank or trip tank with the bottom of the separator body submerged in the mud. The fluid level (mud leg) in the separator is controlled by adjusting the fluid level in the mud tank or by moving the separator up or down within the tank. Mud-tank height can restrict the maximum mud leg obtainable for open-bottom mud/gas separators.
