A Mud Tank is a container made from steel plate and steel tube with an open top for storing drilling fluids on a drilling rig. At the end of March, DC Solid control finished the production of 5 sets heavy mud tanks.
Why I said it is heavy mud tank, because of its thickening of the steel plate, side plate is 10mm thickness, and bottom base is 12mm thickness. But our common mud tank is 8mm thickness, so I call it heavy mud tanks.
Mud Tank is also called a mud pit. Mud Tanks can be of either cone or square shape depending on the shape of the tank bottom. A Mud Tank is necessary in the solids control system and also plays a crucial role for the transport of the drilling fluids. It can be classified according to its functions into chemical tank, metering tank, storing tank and circulating tank etc.
Yesterday, the mud tanks successfully passed the third part test, including (MPI, Hydro test and Load test). The clients are satified with our production time and quality and promise will placing another 16 sets light mud tanks in May. Please follow up my blog to know more about it.
