TrueMud™ Mixing Technology


Flameless, non-scaling heat can be achieved with the TrueMud™ Mixing System. This innovative technology incorporates the Shockwave Power Reactor® that transfers energy directly to fluid. This technology can be used for microscopic dynamic mixing of chemicals and polymers and to heat the fluid to 120°F (or more as required) to allow centrifuging operations to run more efficiently.

Testing Completed In the Gulf of Mexico

Liquid Mud Mixing
 

Recent testing of the full scale trailer mounted unit have confirmed heating times of less that an hour to bring 250 bbls of synthetic drilling fluid to 120°F. This also resulted in a 400% increase in fluid rheological properties. Below is the documentation for the mixing/heating test.

The results yielded a 400% increase in fluid properties after heating and mixing. The time to heat the fluid was also considerably less that anticipated.


Heating to Feed the Centrifuge
 

The TrueMud™ Mixer was also utilized to feed 120°F fluid to the centrifuge at 2 to 3 barrels per minute and realized a 10 to 15 % increase in efficiency for the centrifuge enabling a better cut and increased rates in the centrifuging of synthetic fluids. 14.6 ppg fluid was fed to the centrifuge for each of the tests.
