API Standard Drilling Equipment Vacuum Degasser / Vacuum Degassing Unit as Solid Control Equipment for Oilfield Drilling

Vacuum Degasser Descriptions:

Vacuum degasser is adapted to get rid of various cut-in-gases in the drilling fluids.

Vacuum degasser is very important for returning mud gravity, stabilizing mud viscosity and reducing drilling cost. Therefore, it works as one type mud cleaning equipment. As it is placed after the shale shaker, so we can call it second stage mud cleaning equipment in mud recycling ssystem. At the same time vacuum degasser can be used as a heavy-power agitator.

Vacuum degasser are used to remove the small entrained gas bubbles left in the mud by the mud / gas separator. These units are positioned downstream from mud / gas separators, shale shakers and mud cleaners, while hydrocyclones and centrifuges follow in the arrangement.

Vacuum Degasser Features & Benefits:

1. Self-priming device enables it to pump drilling fluids without centrifugal pump.

2. Corrosion is eliminated and cost of repairing as well as maintenance reduced.

3. The design is compact and the footprint is small.

4. It can also work as powerful drilling fluids agitator.
