HDD Desanders

Welcome to Petropath Fluids India Pvt. Ltd., where innovation meets precision. Our premium quality HDD desanders are engineered to enhance drilling operations in the horizontal directional drilling (HDD) industry. In this comprehensive guide, we’ll explore the significance of desanders, their features, and how they contribute to successful trenchless construction projects.

What Is an HDD Desander?

An HDD desander is a vital component in the HDD process. It is a solid control device equipped with a set of hydrocyclones that efficiently separates sand and silt from the drilling fluids. The desander is strategically positioned after the shale shaker and degasser but before the desilter. Let’s delve into the details.

Key Functions of HDD Desander

  1. Solid Removal:
    • The desander effectively removes abrasive solids (such as sand and silt) from the drilling fluid.
    • It ensures that these solids, which cannot be removed by shakers, do not compromise drilling efficiency.
  2. Particle Size Range:
    • Desanders typically separate solids within the range of 45-74μm.
    • They play a crucial role in maintaining borehole stability and preventing equipment wear.
  3. Centrifugal Pump Operation:
    • A centrifugal pump transports the drilling fluid from the mud tank into the set of hydrocyclones.
    • Desanders have no moving parts, ensuring reliability and minimal maintenance.
