The mud gas separator plays a pivotal role in the drilling process. Its primary function is to efficiently eliminate large gas bubbles from the drilling mud, particularly those containing hazardous gases such as H2S. This is a vital step before the mud is directed to shaker screens for further processing. By effectively removing these gas bubbles, GN Solids Control's vacuum degasser ensures a safer and more efficient drilling operation.


In addition to the mud gas separator, GN Solids Control offers another essential gas removel unit. This unit is available in two varieties, the vacuum degasser and the centrifugal degasser. The vacuum degasser is designed to eliminate fine bubbles from the drilling mud before it is directed to desander or desilter cyclones. This process prevents the introduction of unwanted air into the cyclones, which can lead to rapid wear and tear. On the other hand, the centrifugal degasser provides an efficient solution while occupying less space within the drilling mud tank. This versatility allows drilling operations to choose the degassing method that best suits their specific needs and space constraints.
