Mud Solids Control's Value for the Whole Drilling Process

May 19, 2014

Solids control is a technique that uses combined equipment for drilling rigs to separate the solids in the drilling fluids that are crushed by the drill bits and carried out of the well to the surface.

Solids control systems consist of five stages, including mud tanks, shale shakers, vacuum degassers, desanders, desilters and centrifuge. Each of these items play a major role on the drilling rig as a filtration system to extract solids from the mud and return cleaner mud to the active system. It controls Mud weight and allows the rig to drill faster and keep the properties of the well-bore hole consistent so that producing formations are protected, it helps prevent blow outs and is environmentally friendly.
 


 

Solids Control Value

When done right, solids control can make the overall drilling operation more efficient

Proper solids control ensures that drilling fluid remains in good condition. This saves money in multiple ways:

Increased ROP

Less tool wear

Reduced torque and drag, better hole cleaning

In addition, keeping solids out of the active mud system reduces the amount of new fluid that must be made up to dilute the active system.
