The LP mud gun is designed for safe removal of settled solids in drilling fluid holding tanks. Highly applicable when optimum tank design is unachievable.
Features and benefits:
- 3600 low pressure flushing for effective circulation in tank corners
- Eases removal of settled solids thus saving rig time, man hours and operator exposure to harmful chemicals.
- Meets all relevant HSE requirements minimizes risks related to hazardous chemicals
Solid mud content, such as barite and low gravity drill solids, will settle over time in areas of low fluid movement. The mud gun can be used as a preventive mean to combat solids build up and as a tool to reduce hours spent on tank cleaning. To flush out settled solids or to avoid build up of barite in tank corners a flow is directed towards the problem area. Flushing out solids eliminates the need for hazardous tank entries to manually remove settled solids.
The mud gun nozzle is steered simply by moving the above tank handle.
The LP mud gun is designed for an offshore environment, and is engineered to reduce maintenance and service to a minimum.
