Brightway Dewatering Unit and System Instruction

The 20FT Dewatering Unit provides a process of chemically enhanced configuration to remove the fine solids less than 5 microns from the water based drilling fluids.

As it known that traditional solids control equipment’s like shale shaker, desander, desilter, and decanter centrifuge will removes solids upper than 5 microns, for colloidalsize particles which is less than 5 microns will build up in the drilling mud system.

To maintain the drilling mud properties, the operators have to dilute the drilling fluids with water; this consumes more water and creates more drilling waste.

By utilizing the 20FT dewatering unit, the result is a chemically enhanced flocculation of colloidal and ultra-fine drilled solids that can be efficiently removed with the BWLW365G dewatering centrifuge.

For limited and zero discharged closed loop system, the  dewatering unit is a very important unit to keep the mud clean and reduce the drilling waste which has to be sent for treatment and disposal. Before entering the dewatering phase, for the weighted drilling mud, firstly it enters a barite recovery centrifuge to recovery the barite to the active mud system. The 20 FT containerized dewatering unit can be transported as a standard 20 ft. container. The system includes all the standard dewatering components.

Brightway also have the dewatering decanter centrifuge available can be mounted on a separate telescoping skid or on the drilling mud tank.
