Oil drilling is a highly hazardous operation, and cone desanders play a crucial role. As a crucial tool in oil drilling, solids control desanders prevent sand and particles from entering the wellbore, thereby maintaining a clean and stable wellbore. This is crucial in oil drilling, as a wellbore filled with sand and particles can severely impact the drilling process and endanger the safety of drillers.
Oil drilling cone desanders can remove harmful solids larger than 44 microns, improving drilling fluid properties and increasing drilling efficiency.
The cone desander primarily consists of two 10-inch cyclone assemblies, a slurry inlet and outlet manifolds, an underflow screen, and a support assembly. Drilling fluid is first pumped through the inlet into the cyclone by a sand pump. Pump pressure causes the slurry to swirl at high speed within the cyclone, where centrifugal force separates the liquid and solids in the drilling fluid. Solids exit from the bottom of the cyclone while the liquid overflows from the top. The overflowing slurry then returns to the circulation system, while a vibrating screen processes and screens the underflowing solids before they exit the tank.
In recent years, with the continuous advancement of oil extraction technology, the role of desanders has become increasingly important in oil drilling operations. Whether on land or offshore, they provide effective protection for drillers, ensuring they can complete drilling operations while maintaining wellbore stability and oil production. Therefore, cone desanders are an essential tool, and their importance is self-evident.
In short, cone desanders in oil drilling ensure the safety of oil drillers, ensure wellbore cleanliness, and maintain oil well production. It should be recognized that solids control desanders are not just a piece of equipment; they are invaluable tools in our production.
