Since solids control equipment was utilized, cost for drilling fluids maintenance, cleaning up and disposal have been dramatically reduced. Due to the benefit, solids control equipment started to be widely adopted in the late 1800’s. Later, the related solids control system, solids control service and other solids control factors were gradually developed. The whole process witnesses the history and development of the solids control.

Do you know of history about solids control? Here you can get a general understanding about it. A series of weirs and settling pits were used to separate the cuttings from the borehole. Exactly, they are used the gravity principle, which allows the solids to be settled out from naturally. The first solids control technique is that the clean mud was flowed into suction pit so as to pump down the hole. Although it seems very right now, at that time when technology was not very advanced and professional, it is really hard to get the solids control technology. In 1930s, there was an innovative finding in the oil drilling industry. It is the introduction of shale shaker, which is one of the most important solids control equipment now.

Mentioning about shale shaker, it is known as the first stage of the oil drilling fluids purification. In the world, there have been many brands of shale shaker. In China, KOSUN is well-known to many enterprises because of KOSUN linear motion shale shakers. Compared with other branded shakers, linear motion shale shakers offered by KOSUN are more economical and efficient. The design is compact, the efficiency is high and the cost is reasonable. To be honest, KOSUN shale shakers have been used on many projects and helped the oil drilling enterprises accomplished their aims.
