The desilter processes the mud from the drilling process to remove silt particles and ensure the drilling fluid’s cleanliness. This improves drilling efficiency, protects the drilling equipment, and reduces the occurrence of failures.
The mud desilter, a three-stage solids control device, operates within the drilling fluid’s solid phase control system. It combines a cyclone desilter and a shale shaker, and manufacturers can also supply it without the underflow screens according to customer requests.
The drilling fluid desilter usually use 4″ and 5″ cyclones, which is mainly used to separate solid particles with a particle size of 15-44 microns in the drilling fluid.
