Function of vacuum degasser 

Vacuum degasser used in filling well, grinding well and sinkiang Di na well. All technology indexes all achieve the design requirements. Degassing effect is marked and will produce the good economic benefit. In the regular drilling process, if occur drilling fluid gas cutting, the vacuum degasser can dispose it. It can avoid the influence of gas cutting to drilling fluid working performance, decrease the abrading of mud pump, improve the efficiency of water and decrease the repairing times and stop drilling dispose times.

Comprehensiveness of vacuum degasser 

In unbalanced drilling, now have the degassing equipment – drilling fluid gas separator, it only separate the free gas in drilling fluid, but it can’t eliminate the not free gas. Drilling fluid often have gas cutting. The function of vacuum degasser is eliminating the not free gas. The equipment developed succeed provide the guarantee for the matched equipment of regular drilling and unbalanced drilling.

Why vacuum degasser can eliminate the gas 

In order to efficiency eliminate the gas in drilling fluid must meet the requirements:

The bubbles in drilling fluids should expose on the surface, will rapidly swell and fracture in the negative pressure condition. Gas cutting drilling fluid will remain a certain times in separation chamber. After gas cutting enter into separation chamber will present the turbulent condition flowing. So the degassing effect decided by the reasonable control of vacuum, the remaining times of gas cutting drilling fluid in degassing chamber and the turbulent condition in degassing chamber.

Degassing chamber vacuum is higher, the bubbles received the expansionary force in drilling fluid is bigger, the volume expansion is bigger, drilling fluid give the buoyancy is bigger, then bubbles are easy float to the drilling fluid surface to broken.

The selectivity solid phase control technology 

Application selectivity solid phase control technology, the returned drilling fluid from well mouth through high efficiency screened divided into big grain wet drilling cuttings and sieving fluid, which separated the three class solid phase through classification filter separator, from thick to fine successively is thick drilling cuttings(74~35 µm)aggravate solid phase(35~15 µm)and fine drilling cuttings (2~15 µm), after the aggravate solid phase separated by separator return into drilling fluid system, the coarse and fine drilling cuttings excretion. It can eliminate more harmful solid phase, especially the diameter particles lower than aggravate solid phase harmful solid particles, can improve drilling machine speed, decrease drilling fluid viscosity and dilution water and decrease drilling fluid volume.

Drilling cuttings in –line treatment technology: 

We only value drilling fluid treatment past, but lose sight of the treat to drilling cuttings, drilling cuttings directly discharge into mud pit. Every well all need a mud pit, the area should exceed 500m2. According to treat the wed drilling cutting in-line, can divided into filtrate and dry drilling cuttings, filter returned to drilling fluid system, the dry drilling cuttings are placed in storage and transportation box, centralized processing and recycling used, according to drilling cuttings in-line treatment technology can make drilling cuttings and waste drilling fluid can’t drop on the ground in drilling field, can fully recover available drilling fluid and don’t use mud pit, it has the obvious e economic benefic and huge social benefit.

Drilling fluid recycle technology 

Usually the waste drilling fluid is 100-300m3 after a well drilled successfully. According to the homologous stratum characteristics and drilling fluid type to separate the waste, to the available drilling fluid proceed fully recycle use, can decrease drilling fluid gross, decrease emission load, the benefit is very obvious. Of course, the drilling fluid recycle need a set of processing measure, main including the improvement of drilling fluid performance, classification storage and reliable application.

 

Applicability and structure

Drilling fluid mud jet mixer, an commonly used equipment in mixing fluid, is an important part of drilling fluid solid control system. When well blowout occurs, it can be used to mix large amount of weighted materials even in drilling fluid within little time.

Working mechanism

The drilling flow into the jet pump with certain pressure, in the jet pump fluid spouts out from jet nozzle first, then flows into shear pipe through mixing chamber, Material will be added from hopper to mixing hopper, and move into shear pipe with the flow. During this process, they are dispersed and mixed. The mixture will enter into drilling fluid tank when flows out of the shear pipe.

The shear pipe is hollow and it can expand gradually based on certain curved surface. It is mainly used to enlarge shearing force inside the pipe to disperse the material further and increase the mixture pressure head, this will make it easy to enter in to circulation tank.

Installation and commissioning

Connect the inlet opening of drilling fluid mixing jet mud mixer with the outlet pipe of sand pump, and the hopper outlet leads to drilling mud tank.

6’’ flanges should be used at inlet and outlet.

The hopper should not be equipped too high, sine the more high, the less of mixing capacity.

The centrifugal pump used here should match with the mixing jet mixer.

Maintenance

The necessary maintenance can improve the working reliability of the jet mud mixer, and prolong its service life.

A Daily maintenance

The work is cleaning the feeding hopper and mixing chamber, keeping the equipment neat.

B Periodic maintenance

Checking the fasteners

Checking the fasteners once a month, be sure they are tightening.

Unit anticorrosion

Painting the paint breakage timely.

Flare ignition device is the treating device of oil drilling, refinery and natural gas gathering and transportation station, using flare ignition device ignite the harmful gas to eliminate the harmful to environment and safety harm, it is a kind of security environmental equipment.

Except for use in refinery and transportation gas, it is widely used in oil drilling process. The device is mainly made of DN200 (DN150) gas burner, GDH-2 electronic igniter, ignite appliance (liquid gas tank, tube), drilling fluid gas separator and other ect.

Working routine 

The working process of the device is:

Closed the liquid gas storage tank, extinguish draw fire tube, keep the combustible evacuation air fired.

The superiority of ignition device 

Electrical flare ignition device make manual work fire up to automatic operation, refraction the humanistic philosophy and environmental protection. So it is necessary to use electronic ignition device, in drilling and formation testing process, open flow is the usual. In past 10 years, open fire up is all manual operation.

The person who approached to open flow point, it is easy to burned, have the big risk; meanwhile, manual operation duration time is long, the accuracy rate is not high, the poisonous gas will discharged to the air and lead to pollute environment. The ignition device produced by DC solid control overcomes the shortcomings. It can fire the poisonous flammable gas at times, remove the pollution and harmful.
