2 sets mud agitator are waiting to be delivered to Muscat, Oman. Different from our standard agitator, the prime future of these 2 sets agitators is that they have a very long rotationg shaft which is of 3.3 meters.
 mud tank agitator
Our customer will apply the agitators on the cylindrical tanks with depth near 4 meters. The agitator is consist of 15KW electrical motor, gear box and shaft with double impellers. The 3.3 meters long shaft is devided into 2 sections, in order to easy transportation and different purpose in operating. The double layer 950mm diameter impeller is designed as movable as per the customer’s requirements, the joint point of the shaft is between the 2 layers impeller, after removeing the down half section, the agitator still could work.
During the communication with our customer, we suggest to install the stabilizer for the agitator to prevent the shaking when the shaft rotating. Considering there is pipeling opening at the bottom of the tank, our customer design the stabilizer impending with the supports connecting with the tank wall, and they will produce by theirself.
Now the agitator is waiting for delivery, if you have requests for our mud agitator and other solids control equipments, just feel free to contact with us.

Paddle Mixer is a widely seen device in solid control system, which is mainly used to agitate and blend drilling mud so as to control the depositions of solid particles in the tank cycling system and keep the mud property.

Paddle Mixer Structure and Operation Principle
Paddle Mixer Include: explosion–proof motor, reducer, seating and impeller. The motor and reducer are installed horizontally on the top surface of the mud tank.
Connection: Rigid shaft adapters are used to connect the motor to reducer, and reducer to impeller.
Operation Principle: The impeller agitates the drilling mud and makes it revolving to enhance the stirring effect. The plate mounted to the impeller shaft by flange with bolts could prevent solid particles in mud from depositing around the impeller so as to reduce the friction force when the shaft rotating.

Mud Tank is widely used in the oilfield mud recycling system not only as the vessel of drilling mud, but also as the base of the drilling mud treatment equipments. In a complete mud recycling system for the oil well drilling rig, there would be many tanks involved. Sometimes, all these tanks looked same from out shape, and connected by pipeline; while other times, these tanks are various in demension and independent for different function. These tanks maybe given different names by different supplier, now, we will talk about the tank with name from GN Solids Control.

Mud Tank as Shaker Tank
From the shaker tank, we are getting into the mud cleaning system, in general condition, we will install shale shaker on the tank surface, and the quantity of shale shaker depends on the treating capacity of the system. In order to remove the gas from the drilling mud and enhance the efficiency of the following centrifugal pump which feed the mud to cyclone seperator, we could, as per the client requirment, install a vacuum degasser behind the shale shaker. If there is still enough space on the tank surface, we could install the desander, desilter or mud cleaner on it. However, we always install the mud cleaner in the next tank to prevent the crowded layout on tank surface, then we get into the next tank.

To know how does mud agitator work during drilling fluid process we need to understand the basic information on its principle and main functions, etc.
Mud agitator types
In oil well drilling mud solids control system, presently we use mechanical agitators, but majority will use hydraulic agitators also. The mechanical agitator is combined with transfer device, shaft and impeller.
Different type mud agitators will have different function, such as moving agitators, tube type agitators, swing agitator. Moving agitator contains two rotation type. Including self-rote according to itself bearing center, and the revolution subject to tank center. Both rotation including vertical type and horizontal type. This results strong convection will keep solid not deposite

Agitator function in drilling mud process
In order to keep the drilling fluids even and make particles suspending, we need to fix the agitators on recycling tank. Agitating will promote the coordination of drilling mud material, such as bentonite and barite. The agitation is very important to dissolve the bentonite, it increases the area between each part and increase the speed of reaction.
What will keep drilling mud density and other features steady? We should keep agitator working continuously to avoid solid precipitating and keep solid suspending is helpful to separate them by Desander, Desilter, and dcanter centrifuge, etc. But the useful solid such as weighting materials including red iron, barite powder and some bentonite need even suspension.

GN produce mud agitators for mud tank which is used in oil.gas drilling and HDD mud system.
Mud agitator is including the following components:
A “C” Face Explosion Proof Motor, Helical-Bevel Gearbox, Mounting Plate, Impeller, Shaft and Necessary Couplings.
Connection method:
The mud agitator have two types connection method, Motor directly coupled to the Gear box,called “direct coupled”. Motor coupled to the Gear box by a shaft, called ” Axis-coupled”.
 axis-coupled mud agitator
The difference of direct coupled and Axis-coupled is as belows.
1 Axis coupled agitator with large volume, large weight, and take up a large space.
2 Axis coupled agitator with cheaper gear box, so the total cost is cheaper than direct coupled agitator.
3 Direct coupled agitator is easy to use and maintain.
4 Axis coupled is old design, and direct coupled is new design.
