General information about the mud pump
Due to the simple operation and reliability performance, mud pump is widely used in oil, gas and petrochemical industries. Mud pump can be used for all the main processes which are associated with pumping through pipelines of various liquids – oil, petroleum products, liquefied gases, water , mud , chemicals , etc.
Functions of mud pump for drilling rigs
Mud pumps are used to transfer mud to the drilling wells to cool down drilling bits and lubricated the drilling bits, especially for oil and gas drilling wells. It is usually used together with mud recycling system to pump the clean mud to drilling wells for drilling. Mud pumps transfer mud to the drilling well to cool down bits, takeout sands and shattered rocks.
Applications of mud pump for oil and gas drilling
During drilling oil and gas wells, mud pump have an exclusive usage. They are used to circulate water or mud in the borehole. In the oil rigs, mud pump can also used for extraction of oil from wells , water pumping and high-viscosity oil through pipelines , hydraulic fracturing , water injection . Since in oil industry no one area where mud pump would not be used, further to improving mud pump in technical and economic remains a major challenge of the oil industry. Saving power when working, make it high efficiency and complete installed capacity of hydraulic machines is considered as the most important tasks of the mud pump manufacturer.
