Mechanical Seal Reliable Horizontal Centrifugal Pump For Solids Control System

Drilling fluid process Centrifugal pump is used to transport fluid by conversion of rotational kinetic energy to the hydraulic energy of the fluids flow. The rotational energy typically comes from an engine or electric motor. Aipu supply pumps driven by 10HP to 100HP, which are popular in drilling mud process. Pumps size are 3x2, 4x3, 5x4, 6x5, 8x6. They will perform differently under different power, voltage, or frequency.
No matter for oil and gas drilling, or Water drilling, CBM, or piling, and so on. The solids control system need pump to be power or energy supply of fluid circulation or mud recycling. From shaker compartment, we use pump to transfer drilling mud to desander or mud cleaner. From mixing tank we need mixing hopper pump to blend or compound new drilling fluid.
Drilling mud solids control Centrifugal pumps used in well drilling fluids system are mechanical seal pump. Aipu produce high quality centrifugal pumps. Centrifugal pump is also called sand pump, as the dilling fluid to be processed contain large quantity drilled solid or cuttings.
Usually sand pumps have the following types
Trip Pump: Trip pump will sit at trip tank to transfer mud from trip tank into drill hole directly in special conditions. The pump normal driven by 11 or 15kw electrical motor with a 4×3 size pump. The mud flow 200 to 250GPM is enough.
Desander & desilter feeding pump: It is normally 8×6 size pump driven by 55kw motor for 1000GPM mud flow for oil and gas drilling, but 6×5 or 5×4 size pump with smaller electrical motor will be used for smaller mud flow capacity for oil & gas drilling, coal bed methan drilling, horizontal directional drilling or water well drilling.
Water pump: The water pump will set on water tank with water line supply to solids control mud tank. A diesel pump may work as standby incase of fire.
Mixing Pump: The mixing pump normally 8×6 size driven by 55kw electrical motor to supply mud to mixing hopper for new mud mixing application.
Charge Pump: 1 or 2 set charge pump will sit beside mud pump for charging application.
