Function of Jet Mud Hoppers
The unit is used to make up drilling fluid or increase total amount of the drilling fluid, change the fluid density, viscosity, and dehydration. When making up again, put the materials of drilling fluid (such as bentonite and barite powder) and corresponding chemical additives (such as polymer) into the recycle tank through the jet unit. If put them directly, the materials of drilling fluid and chemical additives will be deposited largely or dump together and we can’t obtain diffused and well-proportioned drilling fluid.
SLH jet mud hopper is a unit used together with the solid control system for petroleum drilling. It is suitable for drilling from 1,500 meters to 6,000 meters and can strengthen and make up drilling fluid through the fixed control system horizontally. The unit includes one jet mixing funnel and one mud hopper that are installed by pipe valves. It is safe and stable and can be moved conveniently.
