Top 5 Benefits of Using a Desilter
Investing in a Desilter in solids control systems provides multiple operational and financial benefits:
✅ Improved Mud Quality – Removes harmful fine particles for better drilling fluid performance.
⚡ Extended Equipment Life – Protects pumps, bits, and motors from abrasive wear.
💧 Lower Mud Costs – Enhances fluid recycling and reduces the need for new mud.
🛠️ Operational Efficiency – Prevents downtime by keeping mud within drilling specifications.
🌍 Environmentally Responsible – Minimizes waste volumes and supports sustainable drilling.
The desilter for oil and gas rigs is used across multiple drilling setups:
Onshore and offshore rigs for fine solids removal.
Integrated into drilling fluids solids control systems for better performance.
Coal Bed Methane and geothermal wells for unconventional drilling operations.
Mud recycling units where efficient solids removal enhances fluid circulation.
FAQs –Desilter
It removes particles in the 15–45 micron range, finer than a desander.
Options range from 8 to 20 cones depending on flow rate needs.
Yes, our equipment works with Water-Based Mud (WBM) and Oil-Based Mud (OBM).
It improves drilling fluid quality, protects equipment, and reduces mud costs.
