Solids Control Equipment

Essential components for effective drilling fluid management and waste reduction

What is Solids Control Equipment?

Solids control equipment, also known as drilling fluids equipment, refers to the machinery used to remove drilled solids from drilling fluid (mud) while retaining the liquid phase and valuable additives. This equipment is critical for maintaining optimal drilling fluid properties and ensuring efficient drilling operations.

Modern solids control equipment utilizes mechanical separation techniques to progressively remove particles of decreasing size from the drilling fluid. This multi-stage process helps extend the life of drilling fluids, reduces waste disposal costs, and improves overall drilling efficiency.

Improved Drilling Efficiency

Cleaner drilling fluids reduce wear on equipment and improve penetration rates

Cost Reduction

Significant savings through reduced fluid losses and disposal costs

Environmental Benefits

Minimizes waste volumes and enables proper disposal of cuttings

Equipment Protection

Reduces wear on pumps and other downstream equipment

Desander

Desanders

Hydrocyclone devices that remove medium-sized solids (40-100 microns) from the drilling fluid after the shale shaker stage.

View Products
Desilter

Desilters

Smaller hydrocyclones that remove fine solids (15-40 microns) from the drilling fluid, working after the desander stage.

View Products
Centrifuge

Centrifuges

High-speed rotating equipment that separates ultra-fine solids (2-15 microns) based on density differences.
