Reduce risk. Lower costs.

Get meas urable, improved

results on your next project

Those are the exact results that the M-I SWACO Integrated Package Delivery (IPD) capabilities deliver through integrated mud mixing, fluids processing, drilling and Drilling Waste Management (DWM). We can apply this inte gration to our drilling and DWM product lines across the globe, helping you succeed in harsh environments, where extended life requirements of assets and facilities matter most, where QHSE issues demand continual close attention, and where it makes good business sense to reduce spares.

As the world’s largest supplier of drilling and completion fluids and drilling waste management equipment, M-I SWACO can take you from flowline to ultimate reuse or disposal as a logical extension of our vast knowledge of fluid technology and management. Our Aberdeen-based IPD organization manages the design, procurement, manufacture, installation and commissioning of custom-built, integrated equipment packages for M-I SWACO operations worldwide. The team also has offices in Houston, Stavanger, Volgograd and Singapore.

What M-I SWACO IPD can do for you While it is an accepted fact that the use of modern technology can signif icantly reduce E&P costs, oper ators and service companies are still faced with the burden of identifying and then applying the optimum technologies for project needs. The decision to evaluate a project in detail from start to finish, followed by strategic management, can help the operator reduce costs and increase operational efficiency.

Our experienced multidisciplinary team delivers integrated packages of equipment for the management of drilling and completion fluids, oil and synthetic-coated drilled cuttings as well as production and well flowback waste streams.

Features and advantages

(10)

Integrated controls deliver improved safety, efficiency and economics Human-Machine Interface (HMI) systems are becoming increasingly common features in modern drilling installations. They can be designed to operate in standalone mode, or can be integrated into the drilling-rig manufacturers’ other control systems. The outputs from these systems, including alarms, are available to the operator, driller, and loggers and M-I SWACO personnel.

HMI systems allow operators to set performance parameters, or preset timed operations, for equipment that previously had to be manually operated and monitored. Benefits include a significantly improved working environment, keeping workers out of potentially hazardous environments, reducing personnel requirements, and improving equipment performance. We use systems-control hardware and software that enables remote control

and monitoring of all our main equipment packages. Reliable remote monitoring from either shore-based or corporate facilities is a growing reality. Benefits now being witnessed by various global operators include:

■

■ Improved operating safety from

remote control ■

■ Efficient equipment adjustment

and control ■

■ Efficient mixing and blending of

chemicals into mud systems ■

■ Minimal exposure of personnel

to potentially hazardous areas through remote detection of equipment failure or inoperability ■

■ Reduced onsite personnel

requirement as a result of remote diagnostics

Smoother operations begin with project-specific documentation Documentation becomes particularly important toward helping equipment operators get the most from the systems

we design, build and manufacture. To address this issue, another core activity of the IPD team is to produce project- specific documentation that accompanies each of the packages. We provide:

■

■ A Supplier Master Documentation

Schedule (SMDS) that can include up to 600 documents for complex projects

■

■ A data-collection tool that captures information of every tag detail within the scope of supply

■

■ Project-specific user manuals

■

■ Project-assurance manuals

The M-I SWACO Integrated Package Delivery group is dedicated to producing project- specific, fit-for-purpose equipment packages, including drilling waste management and mud-mixing systems, for new and refurbished drilling installations.

Drilling Waste Management Systems

Solids Control Systems & Products

Improve drilling efficiency

and environmental compliance

with an integrated

solids-control system

The goal of all modern solids- control systems is to reduce overall well costs through the efficient removal of drilled solids while reducing and minimizing the loss of drill fluids. Additional goals include worker health and safety and environmental compliance.

The key to designing the best systems in the market comes down to working with the rig designers, contractors, operators and ship yards to provide the best in class.

To operate each type of equipment so that the maximum separation efficiency is achieved requires a lot of thought, and many factors must be considered. The quantity and sizing of equipment must be specific so that the efficiency of the solids-control system can be maximized through data such as final volume of mud accumulated while drilling, total volume of solids removed and fluid dilution rates. The greater percentage of drill solids removed and drilling fluid preserved, the higher the operating efficiency.

Redefining solids control through the systems approach

To meet the demands of new advancements within the drilling market, M-I SWACO has looked at the wider drilling process to design a fit-for-purpose solids-control system. Incorporating modern drilling methods, new equipment enhancements and understanding issues such a limited-discharge legislation and drilling-fluid properties, we have designed the best-in-class system for the market. We work with the customer at the project and local operational levels so we can transfer process knowledge and practical operational experience to the system’s design. This helps ensure that the system meets the requirements for today’s drilling practices and allow expansion for tomorrow’s.

As the heart of the fluids process, solids control is the key to cost reduction. Ensuring its effectiveness lies in understanding that different drilling operations will optimize, and must be able to configure, the installed equipment in different ways. This is how the volume of liquid contents in the waste stream is minimized, reducing waste- processing costs. Tight control greatly reduces the need for dilution, and this further minimizes fluid and waste-processing costs. The key to accurate process design is applying comprehensive analysis techniques and competently executing their application.

(13)

Solids Control Systems & Products: Drilling W

aste Management Systems

Accommodating the process-design variables

The first consideration in designing the solids-control system is that there are enough shale shakers to process the drilling fluid, accounting for circulation rates, mud types, water depths, drilling-fluid properties and separation parameters to a given specification. The goal is to remove as much of the drilled cuttings as possible. Given the importance of the shale shaker, it is also very important to understand the effects of separation efficiency on screen life with different motions and G-forces. M-I SWACO helps clients determine the most efficient shakers and screens to achieve optimum economic performance of the solids-control system.

The separation performance of a shale shaker screen is normally represented by the percentage of drill solids removed and the screen life. Grading the screens will vary from manufacturer to manufacturer, but the best way to compare is to look at fluid volume capacity versus solids- removal efficiency.

The mud cleaner is a bank of hydrocyclones mounted over the shaker. In some installations, there are desander and desilter cones mounted in such a way that the unit can be used as a mud cleaner or as a shaker and hydrocyclone unit separately. With today’s finer-screening shakers that have higher overall efficiency rates than the traditional linear-motion shakers, the applications for mud cleaners are limited.

Decanting centrifuges are a very important component of the solids-control system and understanding how to optimize them can be challenging, but when used properly, they are a very valuable asset to complete the system. Centrifuges are capable of removing very fine solids - down to 5µ - that cannot be removed by any other equipment. The centrifuge can greatly improve the separation efficiency of the solids-removal system while drilling with water-base muds to assist in the reduction of liquid-discharge volumes. In weighted muds, the centri fuge is used to reclaim barite while removing colloidal solids that can cause high mud viscosity, poor filter-cake properties and decreased penetration rates.

The centrifuge is the primary separa tion device used in a chemically enhanced dewatering system to reduce liquid discharge volumes.

Mud-Mixing System

Solids Control Systems & Products

Regardless of rig size or project complexity, M-I SWACO will use our operational and engineering experience to design a system that meets the customers and market expectations. We will then engineer, fabricate and commission the mud-mixing system required to perform efficiently and safely. Whether it’s a single HiriDe_{* eductor, or a}

fully automated, touch-screen-controlled, multifunction system, it will deliver the best performance available.

If one quality best describes the system, it is “versatility.” Originally conceived for mixing drilling fluids, an M-I SWACO system can be designed for completion fluids as well. Rugged construction, using low-temperature carbon steel and stainless steel, ensures long life in hostile environments. All components feature a minimized footprint and the flexibility to be positioned as rig space dictates.

System components

Each of the components supplied by M-I SWACO can be put in one of three categories: Solids induction, liquid injection and control.

Automatic sack slitter and pallet lifter An operator feeds sacked chemicals into the automatic sack slitter where the chemical is separated from the sack in a dust-controlled environment. The chemicals are then passed through the HiriDe eductor, or dosing screw/ valve to the HiriDe eductor, to facilitate mixing. The sack is discarded into a disposal bag to minimize operator handling and dusting. A pallet lifter is used in conjunction with the sack slitter to ergonom ically enhance the operator’s activities by eliminating the need for bending and picking up heavy sacks.

Solids Control Systems & Products: Shakers

M-I SWACO new-generation MD-3* triple-decker shaker offers an ideal combination of high efficiency, adaptability and space optimization. The compact MD-3 shale shaker is unique in that it can adapt quickly as drilling conditions and cuttings volumes change.

Changing drilling conditions require immediate and flexible solids control solutions. At the same time, ever-tightening environmental restrictions demand up-to-the-minute compliance. There is also the matter of high drilling costs and the need to recover expensive base fluids. In addition, offshore and some onshore locations have limited space available demanding technologies be as compact as possible.

The MD-3 shale shaker meets all those requirements and more. The advanced MD-3 shaker delivers in a small footprint, a high-efficiency solids-control option adaptable to changing drilling conditions. The highly efficient solids removal capacity of the MD-3 shaker translates to lower waste volumes, costs and downtime. What’s more, by generating drier cuttings at reduced volumes, the MD-3 shaker cuts your environmental footprint and associated coats.

PT Shale Shaker

Solids Control Systems & Products: Shakers

The flexibility of dual motion

The dual-motion shale shaker that adapts as solids change

M-I SWACO has combined linear and balanced elliptical motion technology to create the revo lu tion ary Meerkat PT* dual-motion shaker. The design incor porates a 0.6 hp vibrator motor that allows it to perform on an unparalleled level.

But as drilling conditions change,

the Meerkat PT dual-motion shaker

can be adjusted “on the fly.” Simply flipping a switch on the control box reconfigures the shaker from linear to balanced ellip tical motion. There is no need to suspend or shut down operations. With the Meerkat PT shaker oper ating in the gentler balanced ellip tical mode, solids encounter reduced G-forces and longer screen residence time. This results in drier solids, improved drilling-fluid recovery, longer screen life and reduced operating costs.

The economy of linear motion

The dual-motor Meerkat PT

linear-motion shaker is especially effective while drilling top-hole sections where heavy, high-volume solids are usually encountered. In these intervals, shakers need to generate high G-forces to effectively move dense solids across the screens.

The M-I SWACO Meerkat PT shaker

represents the latest developments in compact, modular design and the flex ibility for multiple configurations to meet a wide range of customer requirements and rig environments. This brochure is a reference to the two standard configurations of the Meerkat PT shaker:

■

■ Standard Meerkat PT shaker with

header box ■

■ Standard Meerkat PT low-profile shaker with possum belly

All motor specifications (hp, voltage, speed) are nominal values and may vary with configurations. Additional nonstandard config urations of the Meerkat PT shaker will be made

(27)

■

■ Units can be customized to meet

both tight-space requirements and high-performance criteria

■

■ All configurations are compact

and modular ■

■ Linear motion for fast conveyance

and heavy loading; balanced elliptical motion for maximum retention time and drier cuttings

■

■ Elliptical motion at the flip of a switch without stopping the shaker

■

■ Balanced basket functions flawlessly

in either linear or balanced elliptical mode, with dry, light loads or wet, heavy loads

■

■ Most reliable mechanical

jack ing system in the industry - simple and easy to use; requires no pinning ■

■ Unique distribution box option can

replace flowline possum belly, providing increased handling capacity and dampening the velocity of fluid from the flowline ■

■ Pre-tensioned composite screens for

fast screen changes and overall ease of use

■

■ Ultra-tight seal between screen and

screen bed eliminates solids buildup and costly bypass of solids

■

■ Largest net-usable screen

area among shakers of similar footprint: 15.9 ft2_{(1.5 m}2₎

PT shaker

takes performance to a new level

Solids Control Systems & Products: Shakers

The Meerkat PT shaker’s modular construction is as basic and important to its

success as the unit’s dual-motion capability.

By incorporating the concept of modules, M-I SWACO has built big advantages

into the Meerkat PT shaker. Customers have the option of bolting single

Meerkat PT units into a dual or triple configuration, with different feed systems and

mud cleaner options. In the field, rig personnel can reconfigure the unit quickly, via bolted connections, to meet changing requirements.

Another big advantage of the M-I SWACO bolted, modular design becomes apparent when it’s time to ship the unit internationally. With the M-I SWACO mobilization option, our crews will partially disassemble the Meerkat PT shaker and pack it in a

safe, compatible container. The unit’s modularity reduces disassembly and packing time at the shipping end and unpacking and reassembly time at the receiving end. Once onsite, crews can configure the modules and install the shakers, using bolted, not welded, connections.

These configurations are just the beginning

M-I SWACO is currently developing additional configurations of the Meerkat PT

shaker. To see for yourself what we have planned, visit an M-I SWACO representative to review the latest specifications for our soon-to-be-launched models.

These configurations are just the beginning

M-I SWACO high-capacity com posite shaker screens are the most rugged, long-lasting and efficient screens available. The new com posite screens, unique in the industry, provide resistance to corrosive drilling fluids. The screens also offer significant fluid capacity, excellent resistance to blinding, drier solids discharge and a large net-usable screen area.

Composite construction creates an ultra-tight seal between the screen and screen bed and eliminates solids buildup and costly solids bypass. The unique screen-locking mechanism wedges the screen firmly in place and allows the screen to be removed for repair or replacement.

The flexibility of dual motion

With the new generation Mongoose

Pro dual-motion shale shaker, M-I SWACO has combined balanced and progressive elliptical motion technology for a shaker that adapts as drilling conditions change.

As drilling conditions change, the evolutionary Mongoose Pro dual-motion shaker can be adjusted “on the fly.” Simply flipping a switch on the control box reconfigures the shaker from balanced to progressive elliptical motion. There is no need to suspend or shut

down operations. With the Mongoose

Pro shaker operating in the gentler progressive elliptical mode, solids encounter reduced G-forces and longer screen residence time.

This results in drier solids, improved drilling-fluid recovery, longer screen life and reduced operating costs.

The economy of elliptical motion

The Mongoose Pro shaker in balanced

elliptical mode is especially effective while drilling top-hole sections where heavy, high-volume solids usually are encountered. In these intervals, shakers need to generate high G-forces to effectively move dense solids across the screens. During drilling breaks and increased viscosity the balanced elliptical motion eliminates the need for screen changes as well as losses.
