Ensure the Jet Mud Mixer Works Correctly in Solids Control System

Oct 18, 2013

Jet mud mixing hopper is a new special equipment in oil drilling field. This drilling fluids jet mud mixer is a high performance equipment working together with the solids control system for petroleum drilling. This jet mud mixer is mainly used to configure and increase the drilling fluids, change the fluid’s density, viscosity, and dehydration.

The unit includes one sand pump, one or two jet mixing hoppers and one jet mud mixer that are installed on a base with pipe valves. It is safe and stable and can be moved conveniently. At the same time, we can make twin jet mud mixer according to the user requirements.

Jet mud mixer is mainly applied to mix drilling mud. Generally, it will be set on mixing tank skid. Drilling fluids jet mud mixer is combined with venturi jet hopper and centrifugal pump, which takes less space and makes mixing more convenient. The mixing capacity and discharge rate decides the certain model. Drilling fluids jet mud mixer can be widely used in fluid recovery system, oil and gas drilling mud solids control system and the drilling and mining exploration fluid unit. Jet mud mixer is powerful and efficient.

How to ensure that the jet mud mixer works correctly ?

1. For mixing, firstly, water tanks are filled up, then add bentonite from the hopper, the mixing system mix the bentonite and fluids from the pump, then it goes from the blue pipe into the tank.
Firstly you can put the water into the mixing tank, then add the bentonite powder through the jet mixer, the powder will enter into the mixing tank, they will be mixed together by the mud agitator.

2. For agitating mud, shut off the valve of the blue pipeline which links to the tank top side ( as in pics ), and open the valve of the black tube ( which links to the mud gun pipeline ), then, with the mud gun jet mixing pressure, agitate the mud in the tanks.

Another way is to put the mud tank jet mixer on the skid of the tank, it is convenient for transportation, and easy for operation.
