Mud Degasser

Mud Degasser Overview

A mud degasser is an essential piece of equipment designed to treat gas-invaded drilling fluids. It is a critical component in various drilling fluid circulation and purification systems. This device quickly removes invading gases from drilling fluids, restoring the specific gravity and stabilizing the fluid’s properties. Additionally, it is an essential piece of equipment for deep, ultra-deep, and underbalanced well projects, and can also function as a high-power agitator.

HCQ Series Degasser Features

1. The vacuum degasser occupies a small footprint and offers high degassing efficiency.

2. Belt drive protects the motor.

3. The degasser can also function as a high-power mud agitator.

4. Vacuum degassers can be customized to meet customer requirements.

Vacuum Degasser Applications

During the drilling process, harmful gases often accumulate within the wellhead. These gases reduce the hydraulic head of the drilling fluid and its ability to carry cuttings. When the gas pressure within the well is high enough, it can cause a blowout. Therefore, a vacuum degasser is required to centrally remove the gas from the mud.
