In the world of drilling, efficiency and sustainability are key. The GNMS-500GT, a mobile mud system by GN Solids Control, is setting new
standards in Australia for the purification and recovery of drilling mud. This advanced system not only boosts operational efficiency but
also significantly reduces waste disposal costs, making it an ideal solution for geothermal and other mobile drilling projects.
The GNMS-500GT is designed to process an impressive 400-500 gallons per minute (GPM) or 90-100 cubic meters per hour (m³/h),
separating particles down to 15 microns. This level of precision ensures that the clean drilling mud can be reused, which is a significant
advantage for any drilling operation.
Key Features of the GNMS-500GT
Mobility & Adaptability:
The track-mounted, modular design of the GNMS-500GT is its standout feature. It allows for easy movement across various terrains,
making it the perfect choice for geothermal drilling and other mobile drilling projects that require frequent relocation. This adaptability
ensures that the system can be swiftly deployed to different sites, reducing setup time and increasing overall productivity.
Cost-Efficiency:
By recycling drilling fluids, the GNMS-500GT reduces the need for fresh mud, which in turn lowers disposal expenses. This not only
benefits the bottom line but also aligns with environmental sustainability goals by minimizing the amount of waste generated from
drilling operations.
Easy Maintenance:
The compact and efficient design of the GNMS-500GT streamlines maintenance procedures, ensuring minimal downtime and reduced
costs.
The Impact of the GNMS-500GT on Australian Drilling Industry
The introduction of the GNMS-500GT into the Australian market is a significant step forward for the solids control industry. With its
ability to process large volumes of drilling mud while maintaining high standards of cleanliness, this system is poised to revolutionize
how drilling projects are managed.
Operational Efficiency
The high processing capacity of the GNMS-500GT allows drilling operations to continue at a faster pace without the need to frequently
stop for mud replacement. This results in a more efficient workflow and a reduction in the overall time required to complete drilling
projects.
Environmental Benefits
The GNMS-500GT’s ability to recycle drilling mud contributes to a greener approach to drilling. By reducing the volume of waste that
needs to be disposed of, the system helps to minimize the environmental impact of drilling operations, which is particularly important
in Australia’s environmentally sensitive regions.
Economic Savings
The cost savings from reduced mud disposal and the need for less fresh mud are substantial. These savings can be reinvested into other
areas of the business, such as research and development, or passed on to clients in the form of more competitive pricing.
