Poor boy degasser in oil drilling

Poor boy degasser also referred to mud gas separator is an ideal equipment to operate when drilling is likely to encounter large volumes of gas. The separators are used primarily to separate and reliably vent large pockets of free gas from the active mud system. Usually it is set ahead of shaker but connected with the choke manifold.

Application of poor boy degasser

Poor boy degasser

The mud gas separator unit, with models engineered for use onshore and offshore, is used to reliably separate and reliably vent large pockets of free gas from the drilling fluid system. It is also ideal for use when an operator is drilling with an underbalanced mud column. The compact separator is well-suited for the space limitations of offshore drilling. It is skid-mounted and trailer transportable, which simplifies transport, spotting, and installation

It is different with vacuum degasser. As vacuum degasser request the pump to supply drilling mud for its operation. The drilling mud flow out through manifolds with certain pressure will push the fluid fall off from inlet and hit on baffles in separator. Then the gas bubbles will break and fly up via the vent line, as all drilling mud after processed will flow out of mud gas separator through discharge line with mud seal.

Aipu MGS Poor boy degasser

MGS poor boy degasser unit offers the industry’s high gas- and liquids-process capacity and enables operators to drill deeper large-diameter and exploratory wells at higher circulating rates. The unit improves kick handling capabilities, promotes optimal circulation rates, and facilitates drilling large-diameter holes through targeted zones. The MGS mud/gas separator unit increases gas- and liquids-handling capacities and enables the immediate sale of gas during drilling operations. It also provides more efficient separation of emulsions and gas-cut mud in either gas or oil environments, eliminating the need for a skimming system in a gas environment.

They separate and reliably vents pockets of free gas from drilling and workover operations. They ideal where drilling and workover are likely to encounter sour gas or when an operator needs to control the well with small, efficient equipment. Each unit is ruggedly built and coated with corrosion-resistant epoxy to ensure long life while processing hazardous and toxic gases

If clients prefer higher leveled products, we can also fabricate them with the Q345R plate. With more stronger resistance on H2S and so on. Please don’t feel hesitated to contact us if you have any question or interest
