CBM Drilling 5 Stage Solids Control System for India Drilling Company

 

GN Solids Control recently com pleted the manufacturing and factory acceptance test of a 5 stage solids control system, which will be shipped to an Indian drilling contractor for their CBM Drilling project. This engineered mud processing package is purpose-built to handle coalbed methane drilling mud, efficiently separate drilled solids, maintain stable mud density and reduce overall operational cost for on-site drilling operations.

The customer from India focuses on coalbed methane exploration and production. In CBM Drilling operations, fine coal particles and rock cuttings easily contaminate drilling fluid. Without reliable solids removal, the mud properties will deteriorate rapidly, bringing high wear risk to drilling rig pumps and downhole tools. After comparing multiple global suppliers, the Indian team selected GN Solids Control as their partner for this mud recycling package, relying on our rich field experience in coalbed methane drilling fluid treatment.

5-stage Configuration for CBM Drilling Mud Treatment

This complete system adopts a five-stage solids removal sequence. The first phase is shale shaker for primary coarse cuttings separation. The subsequent hydrocyclone units remove medium-sized solids, followed by a vacuum degasser to eliminate gas entrained inside the drilling mud, which is critical for CBM applications with frequent gas influx. The final stage uses decanter centrifuge to strip ultra-fine solids, to keep the mud within target parameters for continuous drilling.

All mud tanks, pipelines and supporting skids are fabricated according to international drilling standards. The modular skid-mounted design allows fast site assembly and disassembly, suitable for frequent rig movement in remote CBM drilling sites across India. Every unit passes strict pressure and function testing before delivery, to minimize on-site commissioning difficulty.

 

Global After-sales & Technical Support

GN Solids Control provides full set technical documentation, spare parts list and remote commissioning guidance for this Indian CBM project. Our engineering team can offer on-site technical service upon request. As a professional manufacturer, we keep optimizing solids control packages to fit different formation conditions of CBM, HDD and oil & gas drilling projects worldwide. This shipment further strengthens GN’s market footprint within South Asia coalbed methane drilling sector.

CBM Drilling 5 Stage Solids Control System for India Drilling Company

GN Solids Control has completed the delivery of a full 5‑stage solids control system tailored for coal‑bed‑methane (CBM) drilling to an Indian local drilling contractor. CBM projects face unique challenges: complex coal‑bearing formations generate large volumes of fine coal cuttings, which easily deteriorate mud properties and trigger downhole troubles without multi‑level progressive purification.

Different from conventional 3‑stage or 4‑stage mud recycling skids, GN’s five‑stage system adopts step‑by‑step separation workflow: linear‑motion shale shaker for primary coarse cuttings removal, vacuum degasser for gas elimination, hydrocyclone desander, desilter, and variable‑frequency decanter centrifuge for ultra‑fine solids disposal down to 2 μm. This complete workflow stabilizes mud density and viscosity for CBM borehole stability.

Built upon GN’s mature manufacturing standards for shale shaker and mud‑system products, all tank frames go through stress‑relief heat‑treatment after welding to withstand heavy‑duty field vibration. Core shale shakers adopt imported OLI vibration motors with adjustable deck angle, while API‑RP‑13C compliant interchangeable shaker screens extend service life under high‑solids coal‑mud conditions. Modular skid‑mounted layout facilitates land transport across remote Indian drilling sites; walkways, handrails, agitators, mud guns and transfer pumps are fully pre‑integrated to minimize on‑site assembly workload.

The 5‑stage configuration brings tangible operational gains: effective barite recovery cuts consumption of weighting agents and bentonite; mud recycling rate rises greatly to lower waste‑mud disposal expenditure and satisfy local environmental requirements. GN offers factory FAT test reports, on‑site installation guidance and operator training.

This project marks GN’s further penetration into South‑Asia CBM market. GN keeps supplying standardized and custom‑built solids‑control packages for CBM, HDD and geothermal drilling contractors worldwide.

GN 5-Deck Stack Vibrating Screen for Overseas Customer

Mining and mineral processing plants worldwide face two common challenges: limited plant floor space and demand for precise multi-fraction particle classification. For overseas mineral processors, EPC contractors and aggregate producers, GN’s 5-Deck Stack Vibrating Screen delivers a compact, high-performance fine screening solution for wet classification and dewatering.
GN’s self-developed 5-deck stack vibrating screen adopts a two-degree-of-freedom resonance principle, driven by dual synchronized vibration motors to create stable linear vibration. Unlike multiple separate single-deck screens that occupy huge workshop space, five independent screening decks are stacked vertically within one unit. This compact footprint allows customers to achieve five different particle size separations in one single pass, greatly saving civil construction and layout investment for mine sites.
The screen frame is fabricated with heavy steel and undergoes stress relief after welding to eliminate welding residual stress. This critical heat treatment minimizes deformation and cracking under continuous heavy vibration, extending machine service life in highly abrasive mining environments. Each deck is fitted with high-quality polyurethane screen panels, featuring anti-blinding performance, high open area and outstanding wear resistance. As a key consumable part, PU screen panels can be replaced quickly without disassembling the whole stack, lowering onsite maintenance downtime and operational cost.
This stack screen handles a wide range of materials, including iron ore, nickel ore, gold ore, coal, quartz sand and construction aggregate. It works perfectly as pre-screening equipment upstream of tailings dewatering decanter centrifuges. By removing coarse oversize particles before feeding slurry into centrifuges, it protects the decanter bowl from severe wear and reduces unplanned shutdowns, which is highly valued by global EPC solution providers such as mineral tailings treatment contractors.
GN offers full customization for overseas clients. Customers can adjust deck quantity, mesh aperture, feeding capacity and wear protection coating based on local ore characteristics. Every unit is fully tested before shipment, with complete technical documentation, operation manuals and spare part packages prepared for international delivery.For mineral processing projects where space is restricted and precise fine grading is required, GN 5-Deck Stack Vibrating Screen provides a reliable, cost-effective alternative to traditional hydrocyclones and conventional multi-layer screens.
