Mud Balance Tester

Used to determine density of the drilling fluid. The instrument consists of a constant volume cup with a lever arm and rider calibrated to read directly the density of the fluid in ppg (water 8.33), pcf (water 62.4), specific gravity (water = 1.0) and pressure gradient in psi/1000 ft. (water 433 psi/1000 ft.) Calibration Test […]

Shale Shakers

Shale shakers are components of drilling equipment used in many industries, such as coal cleaning, mining, oil and gas drilling.They are the first phase of a solids control system on a drilling rig, and are used to remove large solids (cuttings) from the drilling fluid (“mud”). Typical shale shakers on a drilling rigDrilling fluids are […]

Mud Bucket

This guy working as Mud bucket are machine designed for safer and easier operation during wet trips. The mud bucket is mounted on the drill floor and connected to the mud system drain tank by a flexible hose. The mud seal for each individual dimension can be easily replaced. The articulated arm is supplied with […]

Oil-based Mud

Is a drilling fluid used in drilling engineering. It is composed of oil as the continuous phase and water as the dispersed phase in conjunction with emulsifiers, wetting agents and gellants. The oil base can be diesel, kerosene, fuel oil, selected crude oil or mineral oil. The requirements are a gravity of 36–37 API, a […]

What Are Drilling Fluids, Types, Composition And Uses

Drilling fluids, also known as drilling muds, play a crucial role in the oil and gas exploration process. These specialized fluids serve multiple purposes, including cooling and lubricating the drill bit, carrying rock cuttings to the surface, and maintaining wellbore stability. In this blog post, we’ll delve into drilling fluids, exploring their types, composition, and […]

What is Water-Based Mud?

Water-based mud is a drilling fluid where water is the primary continuous phase. It is a suspension of water, clay, and other chemical additives designed to meet specific operational requirements. WBMs are tailored to ensure wellbore stability, lubricate the drill bit, and carry drilled cuttings to the surface. Composition of Water-Based Mud The composition of […]
