Method For Centrifugal Separation Enhancement

View page
US Patent:
7455783, Nov 25, 2008
Filed:
Apr 11, 2006
Appl. No.:
11/401599
Inventors:
Neale Browne - Houston TX, US
Catalin Ivan - Sugar Land TX, US
Assignee:
M-I L.L.C. - Houston TX
International Classification:
B01D 17/038
US Classification:
210774, 175 66, 210787, 494 37, 494901
Abstract:
A method for removing low gravity solids from an oil-based drilling fluid includes directing the drilling fluid into a first inlet of a first line in fluid communication with a centrifuge, injecting steam into the drilling fluid through a second inlet in the first line, wherein the second inlet is upstream from the centrifuge, directing the commingled drilling fluid and steam into the centrifuge, rotating the centrifuge at a rotational speed sufficient to separate solids from liquids, collecting solids from a solids discharge, and collecting effluent from an effluent outlet, wherein the effluent has low gravity solids in an amount less than 1. 5%.

Apparatus For Separation Of Water From Oil-Based Drilling Fluid And Advanced Water Treatment

View page
US Patent:
7497954, Mar 3, 2009
Filed:
Feb 7, 2006
Appl. No.:
11/348940
Inventors:
Catalin Ivan - Houston TX, US
Rahul Dixit - Houston TX, US
Assignee:
M-I L.L.C. - Houston TX
International Classification:
C02F 1/24
C02F 1/54
C02F 9/02
US Classification:
210703, 210705, 210708, 210712, 210725, 210202, 210205, 210206, 2102212, 175 66, 175206
Abstract:
An apparatus for separating water from oil-based drilling fluid includes an separation tank, a chemical treatment apparatus having one or more de-oiling polymer preparation tanks, and a dissolved air flotation unit. Slop mud is directed into the separation tank where surfactant is added to separate the drilling fluid from oily water. The drilling fluid is drained for further processing. The oily water is removed by an outlet arrangement from the separation tank and directed to an initial treatment line. One or more de-oiling polymers are added to the oily water in the initial treatment line and mixed therewith. The mixture may then be directed to the dissolved air flotation unit where dissolved air is released into the bottom of the mixture. The dissolved air adheres to suspended solids in the mixture and lifts them to the top surface as a froth. The froth is skimmed from the top surface of the mixture and collected.

Method Of Processing Drilling Fluid

View page
US Patent:
7514005, Apr 7, 2009
Filed:
Jan 26, 2006
Appl. No.:
11/340034
Inventors:
Neale Browne - Houston TX, US
Catalin Ivan - Sugar Land TX, US
Assignee:
M-I L.L.C. - Houston TX
International Classification:
B01D 17/04
US Classification:
210708, 175 66, 175206, 210689, 210710, 210737, 210738, 210770
Abstract:
A method for processing drilling fluid comprising an oil and water emulsion and solid material includes breaking the emulsion into an oil phase and a water phase, increasing the surface area of the solid material, adsorbing at least some of the water phase to the increased surface area of the solid material, and recovering at least some of the oil phase. The drilling fluid may be moved within a container to break the emulsion and increase the surface area of the solids material. Water phase or solid material may be added to the drilling fluid to maximize the amount of water phase adsorbed into the solid material and minimize the amount of oil phase adsorbed to the solid material. The drilling fluid may be processed while being transported between locations. The solid material may be dried in a thermal dryer to vaporize and recover the water phase and any adsorbed oil phase.

Method To Measure Flow Line Return Fluid Density And Flow Rate

View page
US Patent:
7735378, Jun 15, 2010
Filed:
Dec 18, 2007
Appl. No.:
11/959009
Inventors:
Christian Singfield - Shorncliffe, AU
Catalin D. Ivan - Houston TX, US
Mark Morgan - Houston TX, US
Assignee:
FSI International Corp Limited - Sandgate
Mezurx Pty Ltd - Spring Hill
International Classification:
G01F 1/00
US Classification:
73861
Abstract:
Generally, the present invention is directed to the in situ measurement of fluid density and/or flow rate in tubular conduits, wherein such measurement comprises measuring dynamic fluid level and/or load (weight) in a region of the conduit and correlating these measurements of the fluid with a density and/or flow rate. Such measurements are typically directed toward drilling fluids transported within the tubular conduits—particularly the return flow, wherein the fluid comprises extraneous material (e. g. , cuttings, etc. ) which can alter the density and flow rate of the drilling fluid.
