Project Background:
As a major energy producer in Central Asia, Turkmenistan imposes stringent reliability and environmental standards on oil and gas drilling equipment. To meet the high-standard requirements of a large local oilfield, KOSUN has provided a high-efficiency, eco-friendly solids control system for the ZJ70 drilling rig, designed to optimize drilling fluid treatment, enhance drilling efficiency, and reduce waste emissions.
Project Overview:
Location: An oil and gas field in Turkmenistan
Rig Model: ZJ70 Drilling Rig
Solids Control Configuration: Five-stage purification system (including shale shakers, desanders, desilters, centrifuges, agitators, etc.)
Capacity: Designed for drilling fluid circulation in deep wells up to 7,000 meters
Technical Highlights: Modular Design, Automated Control, Eco-friendly & Energy-efficient
System Components & Functions:
Shale Shaker (Primary Purification): High-frequency linear motion shale shaker with a processing capacity of ≥180 m³/h; features adjustable screen mesh to effectively separate drill cuttings >74 μm.
Desander & Desilter System (Secondary/Tertiary Purification): Hydrocyclone units (Desander + Desilter) remove solid particles ranging from 15–74 μm, effectively reducing drilling fluid density.
Decanter Centrifuge (Quaternary Purification): High-speed decanter centrifuge separates ultra-fine particles (2–10 μm) to control the viscosity and stability of the drilling fluid.
Auxiliary Equipment: Automatic chemical dosing unit, mud agitators, and liquid level control system for real-time regulation of drilling fluid properties.
Technical Innovation & Advantages
High Adaptability: The system is optimized for Turkmenistan’s high-temperature and sandy environments, featuring integrated sunshade canopies for equipment protection.
Environmental Compliance: A closed-loop design minimizes drilling fluid leakage, ensuring waste disposal meets local environmental regulations.
Intelligent Management: Centralized PLC control enables real-time monitoring of flow rate, density, and solids content, significantly reducing manual intervention.
Project Achievements
Efficiency Gains: Achieved a solids removal rate of ≥95% and increased drilling fluid recycling by 30%, significantly lowering overall drilling costs.
Customer Testimonial: Stable system operation helped increase the daily drilling footage by 15%, earning high recognition from the oilfield operator.
Industry Benchmark: Established as a flagship case for deep-well solids control in Turkmenistan, leading to follow-up orders for similar projects.
The Turkmenistan ZJ70 Drilling Rig Solids Control System overcomes the challenges of drilling fluid treatment in high-temperature environments through a customized solutions approach. This project demonstrates the technical strength and localization capabilities of Chinese manufacturing, providing reliable support for oil and gas development in Turkmenistan.
