Every container unit has obtained valid CSC container certification, which greatly simplifies cross‑ocean shipping, container transport and on‑site relocation procedures for end‑users.

Modular Two‑Tier Stackable Layout Advantage

One of the core design highlights of this oil drilling mud system is its two‑tier stackable arrangement capability. Field crews can stack qualified tank units in two layers on site according to actual land footprint, project scale and fluid volume demands. This stacking design effectively reduces overall land occupation without sacrificing total storage capacity, which brings obvious value for sites with limited available space. When project tasks are finished, these tank modules can be disassembled directly for container transportation to the next working location, avoiding heavy‑duty disassembly‑reconstruction work of traditional fixed mud pits.

All modules are pre‑fabricated and pre‑tested inside GN Solids Control workshop before shipment. Main pipe interfaces, connecting flanges and matching mounting positions are reserved in advance. After containers arrive at job‑site, operators only need to finish module connection and simple commissioning work, which significantly cuts down on‑site installation cycle and reduces field labor cost. The whole LMP solution supports matching with related solids control equipment to realize complete drilling fluid mixing, storage and supply workflow.

As an experienced manufacturer of modular liquid mud plant, GN Solids Control keeps providing customized container‑type mud station solutions for global drilling fluid service providers.

GN Solids Control has completed shipment of double‑deck Shale Shaker units to support a large‑scale deep well drilling operation. The equipment left the manufacturing facility on 12 August 2026 and will serve as primary first‑stage separation equipment within the on‑site mud purification process, addressing the demanding solids removal requirements generated during deep formation penetration.

Deep well drilling imposes heavy burdens on surface processing hardware. High density drilling fluids, large cuttings volumes and fluctuating flow rates require shaker screens to maintain stable throughput while keeping fluid loss at an acceptable level. The double‑deck shale shaker adopted for this project features two‑level screening structure, which effectively separates coarse and medium‑sized drill solids in one pass. Compared with single‑deck models, it improves total handling capacity and enhances separation efficiency under high‑viscosity mud conditions frequently encountered in deep well sections.

Application Advantages for Deep Well Drilling Conditions

When drilling into deep formations, mud weight is normally increased to maintain wellbore stability. Under such operating parameters, conventional screening equipment often suffers screen blinding, overflow and reduced processing performance. GN double‑deck shale shaker is engineered to resist these typical pain points. Adjustable high‑frequency vibration motors deliver consistent G‑force, supporting continuous processing even when inlet mud contains high content of rock cuttings. Modular screen mounting design allows fast screen replacement on location, shortening equipment downtime during round‑the‑clock drilling shifts.

All supplied units have passed factory acceptance test covering vibration performance, sealing check, noise measurement and full‑flow simulation. Every component complies with international industrial standards for on‑site drilling environment. Technical documentation including operation manual, spare‑parts list and inspection reports are packaged together for field commissioning teams.
