A shale shaker is a crucial component in the process of drilling for oil and gas. It is a vibrating screen or sieve that helps separate cuttings (solid particles) from the drilling fluid (mud) during the drilling process. The primary purpose of the shale shaker is to remove large solids, typically larger than 75 microns, from the drilling fluid. Shale shaker is first phase solids control equipment in drilling fluids processing system, also known as key solids control equipment in drilling mud system, shale shaker decides performance of the whole solids control system. GN Solids Control can design double shakers and triplicate shakers on single skid according to clients’ special requirements and also supply relevant connecting manifold, according to current industry situation, GN provide both third generation linear motion shale shaker and fourth generation balanced elliptical shale shaker. Here’s how a shale shaker works, as drilling progresses, the drill bit generates cuttings that mix with the drilling fluid. This mixture is known as drilling mud. The drilling mud, along with the cuttings, flows into the shale shaker. The shale shaker consists of a vibrating screen or mesh that allows the drilling fluid to pass through while retaining the larger cuttings. The shale shaker vibrates rapidly, causing the drilling fluid to pass through the screen. The vibrating motion helps to separate the cuttings from the drilling fluid. The size of the openings in the screen determines the size of the particles that can pass through. The larger cuttings are retained on the screen and are subsequently removed from the drilling fluid. These cuttings are then are typically collected and disposed of. The drilling fluid, now free from larger cuttings, continues its journey in the drilling process. It may go through additional processes or equipment to further clean and condition the fluid before being reused in the drilling operation. Shale shakers play a crucial role in maintaining the integrity of the drilling fluid, ensuring that it remains effective in carrying cuttings to the surface and providing stability to the wellbore. This process is essential for drilling operations in the oil and gas industry, as it helps prevent equipment damage, maintains drilling efficiency, and aids in environmental protection by managing the disposal of cuttings. GNZS linear motion shale shaker absorbed advanced tech at home and abroad ,and integrated GN own design. GN complete series shale shaker can meet customers’ variable demand. Clients feedback proved the advantages of this kind of shale shaker: high G-force, wide screen area, compressed structure, cost-effective, etc.
