Gumbo Equipment
Gumbo Boxes
IMPROVING SOLIDS CONTROL EFFICIENCY BY EFFECTIVELY REMOVING GUMBO AND
OTHER STICKY CLAYS BEFORE THEY REACH OTHER SOLIDS CONTROL EQUIPMENT
Gumbo removal equipment is the first step in effective

solids removal when sticky clays and gumbo are drilled.
The Gumbo Box, in conjunction with the Gumbo Chain or
Scalper removes gumbo before it reaches other solids
control equipment.
The Gumbo Box can process high volumes of drilling
fluid while removing gumbo and sticky clays that would
blind off other scalping units. The optional integrated flow
divider can feed up to eight shakers from one gumbo
box, eliminating additional equipment, and allowing for a
compact installation. Single units may be easily bypassed
when not in use.

KING COBRA Drying Shaker

RECOVERING VALUABLE FLUIDS WHILE REDUCING THE OIL-ON-CUTTINGS
CONTENT WITH RUGGED, DEPENDABLE AND PROVEN PERFORMANCE
The KING COBRA drying shaker is based on the KING

COBRA platform, but is specifically designed for the
secondary recovery of drilling fluids that are discharged
with the solids from the primary shale shakers. The
drying shaker is an effective means of preventing the
discharge of oil-wet solids and excess fluids that are
contained on or within the solids.
The KING COBRA drying shaker utilizes linear motion
and four pretension screens to recover the fluids from
the discharged solids. In most applications, the unit
has successfully reduced the liquid weight percentage
of oil-on-cuttings content to an average less than 14%.
The shaker is also supplied with a sump that is able
to contain up to 30.8 bbl (4.9 m3) of recovered fluids.
Typically, the recovered fluids are transferred from the
Solids Control
sump (via centrifugal pump) to the active mud system
for reuse.
Maintenance is minimal and only a small inventory
of replacement parts is necessary to sustain optimal
operation. The KING COBRA drying shaker will
greatly reduce the drilling costs associated with
fluid replacement, clean-up and environmental
assessments.

is the first to introduce CONSTANT-G CONTROL™ to
provide optimum performance to meet drilling rates and
separation efficiency.
CONSTANT-G CONTROL
CONSTANT-G CONTROL (CGC) is a patented technology
developed to maintain an optimal G-force rating on the
VSM Multi-Sizer separator during varying liquid/solids
loading conditions. CGC Technology maximizes screen
performance, solids conveyance and throughput while
enhancing screen life. CGC is an industry first and a
standard feature on the VSM Multi-Sizer.
With the addition of an accelerometer on the basket
Solids Control
tied to the VFD operating the drive motors, the VFD is
able to constantly monitor the Multi-Sizer separator’s
G-force and adjust the motor speed in order to maintain
the G-force at predetermined set points, depending on
fluid and solids loading on the basket. The Multi-Sizer
separator will run at a lower G-force and reduces wear
on screens and components, while operating with little
solids loading. When loading becomes more extreme
and higher G’s are needed to process all of the drilling
fluid, the Multi-Sizer separator will automatically ramp up
to a higher G-force.
The VSM Multi-Sizer separator also offers a flexible
flow (Flex-Flow) system that provides the ability to run
in two unique operating modes: “in-series” and “in-

DEFINITIONS AND FAQS
The America Petroleum Institute screen labeling practice, API

RP 13E, has been superseded and merged with API RP 13C.
NOV has provided this document as clarification during the
introduction of this new practice.
• Previously, API RP 13E used light to measure the distribution of
hole sizes and then calculated values for D16, D50 and D84.
• Now, API RP 13C uses particles to measure the coarsest
particle that passes through the screen, resulting in a
measured value of D100.
• Historically API RP 13E’s D50 was considered the primary
cut-point of the screen. Currently, API RP 13C uses D100 to
compare two different screens.
• Separation curves show that the D100 value is always coarser than the D50 value.
NOV views the change from API RP 13E to API RP 13C as a positive step, because of the move from a light basis to a
particle separation basis. Since the two standards measure the screens using completely different test procedures and

the classifying number changes from D50 to D100, the API RP 13C values will be different from API RP 13E values for the
same screen.
FAQS
1. What is D100 and how is it related to the API screen designation?
• The D100 value represents the diameter of the coarsest particle (in microns) which will pass through the screen during a dry laboratory test and
is a single number, not a range of sizes.
• The API screen designation for a screen is the API-defined range of sizes into which the D100 value falls. Some of the coarser size classes span
quite a large range of D100 values.
2. What does/doesn’t the D100 tell us?
• The D100 value is the finest particle diameter at which the screen no longer sends 100% of the particles to the discard stream. This is also the
coarsest particle that will pass through the screen.
• The D50 value is the particle size at which the screen sends 50% of the particles to the “overs” (discard), while the remaining 50% report to the
“unders” (undersized stream) and should not be compared to the D100. The D50 is interpreted as the micron size where a screen makes a
50/50 split.
• The API RP 13C D100 is a very specific value determined from a carefully-controlled laboratory procedure so that any laboratory could measure the
same value for any given screen cloth.
3. Will a screen with a D100 of 110 microns remove solids finer than 110 microns?
• Yes, more than half of the particles that are coarser than D50 and finer than D100 will report to the overs. A significant portion of the particles finer
than D50 will also report to the unders. (By definition, every particle classified in the D100 size or coarser will report to the overs as expected.)
4. Have any of the NOV screen mesh combinations changed?
• Yes, however only a few of the screen mesh combinations required a change in order to provide a screen in each API Screen designation.
5. Why is there such a great variance between the old and new screen labeling values?
• The biggest variation is due to the shift from the D50 value to the D100 value.
• The previous test procedure for screens, API RP 13E, measured the distribution of the screen holes as measured by light, not solids. Subsequently,
the screens were labeled using the D50, D16 and D84 separation curve.
• The current test procedure, API RP 13C, measures the coarsest particle which passes through the screen, which is a more accurate and repeatable
test method. The screens are now labeled using the D100 size criteria.
6. Should I use the old screen number or the new API screen designation when ordering replacement screens?
• NOV will accept orders according to the system that customers prefer. Orders may be placed using either the old nomenclature or the new
API screen designation.
7. If the 200-mesh screen is now labeled API 120, should a finer screen be used now?
• Customers are advised to continue using the screens that work best for their applications, regardless of the new API screen designation. The sand
content found in the mud report remains the best indicator of what type screen to use. The new testing procedure reports a different value and its
primary intent is to provide a standard measuring system for comparing screens among competing manufacturers.
• The mud report will dictate what type of screen is required. With a weighted mud, the mud should be screened fine enough to produce just a
trace of sand. If the mud report is showing a sand content of .25% or more, the advice is: screen finer. With an unweighted mud, the mud should
be screened as fine as possible (with consideration to practical screen life), while maintaining the prescribed mud weight.
8. Why does NOV choose to use both original screen nomenclature, as well as the new API RP 13C screen
designation?
• It is expected that customers will refer to both the original and the new nomenclature for an indefinite period. NOV will continue to use its original
nomenclature and provide information regarding correlating API RP 13C screen designations to allow customers to choose what works best for
them.
9. What is the practical value of the new API RP 13C screen labeling practice to the end user?
• The new API RP 13C labeling practice provides an excellent standard and benchmark for comparing one screen manufacturer’s screen separation
to another. The closer the D100 values, even within the same size class, the better the comparison will be.
• NOV will work with customers to ensure that screen comparison tests are performed in a fair manner for all parties, allowing the development of a
balanced test plan, including a double-blind particle size analysis protocol, whenever a screen comparison is to be conducted.

Degassers
DG-ATM Series Degassers

EFFECTIVELY REMOVING ENTRAINED GASSES WITH SIMPLE, EFFICIENT AND EFFECTIVE DESIGN
The DG-ATM series atmospheric degassers aid in the

prevention of potential blowouts. These degassers remove
gasses from gas cut mud, while pumping the proper mud
weight downhole.
The DG-ATM-6 is designed for standard tanks and DG-
ATM-8 is manufactured for deep mud tanks. The design and
operation is simple and effective. Fluid enters the submerged
pump of the degasser through spiraled inlets, in a whirling
motion. This action, enhanced with an inlet impeller, maintains
a void around the shaft that prevents the pump from gas
locKING. The fluid is fanned out from the baffle plate with
high velocity, creating a thin sheet that impacts the wall of
the spray tank, above the mud surface. The fluid is fanned out
from the baffle plate with high velocity, creating a thin sheet
Solids Control
that impacts the wall of the spray tank. Degassing occurs as
the gas particles are brought to the mud surface by the high
impact and turbulence of the thin spray sheet at the wall of
the spray tank. The degassed fluid collects at the base of the
spray tank and flows out of the discharge trough to the next
pit. The gasses escape through the top of the spray tank and
dissipate into the atmosphere.
DG-ATM Series Degassers

FEATURES BENEFITS
Simple, rugged, field-proven design Reliable operation with minimal maintenance and downtime

Mud/Gas Separator
H2S Mud/Gas Separator

SAFELY REMOVES LARGE VOLUMES OF FREE GAS, WITH CERTIFIED NACE, OSHA, AND ASME DESIGN
In dangerous “kick” conditions, the Mud/Gas Separator

allows operators to circulate the drilling fluid by removing
large pockets of gas. It optimizes mud/gas separation at the
flowline and vents dangerous gases away to safe distances
from the rig and personnel.
The Mud/Gas Separator controls gas and permits continued
drilling in underbalanced conditions. In some areas, this
“underbalanced” situation is accepted as normal drilling
conditions. Wells with dramatic pressure surges are
commonplace. These “kicks” contain high liquid volumes
and in some instances, may purge the well of all mud. They
may also pose safety hazards for rig personnel and could
damage formations, thereby jeopardizing the well.
INSTALLATION
Solids Control
The Mud/Gas Separator may be mounted as a permanent

fixture or as a portable unit. Under some operating
conditions, the vessel may vibrate if not properly supported.
It is critical that the separator is anchored and braced to
prevent movement of both the separator body and the lines.
The velocity of the fluids and the abrasive nature of the liquid/
gas mixture may erode piping downstream of the chokes
and manifolds. The efficient baffling system enhances mud/
gas separation instantly. It permits operators to safely drill
through critical gas-producing formations, with minimal
erosion and minimal safety hazards.
H2S Mud/Gas Separator

FEATURES BENEFITS
NACE, OSHA and ASME certifications Certified design for installation in nearly all applications
High processing capacity Continued drilling in variety of conditions
Removal of dangerous H2S Promotes safe rig environment
Baffle plates within vessel Efficient removal of free gas
Customizable specifications Built to match drilling program and application
Backpressure manifold in flare line Control of the delivery of gas to the flare line

Vacuum Transfer
Vacuum Pod Unit

PROVIDING QUICK AND EASY COLLECTION AND TRANSFER OF RIG WASTE
The Vacuum Pod Unit is a quick and easy method of

collecting and transporting waste around a rig site. In
conjunction with a 168-horsepower or 150-horsepower

vacuum unit, the Vacuum Pod receives waste that
is stored within the vessel from cuttings boxes, slips
tanks, spills from pit cleaning, and other areas.
A radar level sensor measures the volume level of waste
within the vessel and starts the pumps when capacity
is reached. The unit has two operational modes:
automatic and manual. In automatic mode, when the
level of waste inside the vessel is within three feet of the
sensor, the controller activates an internal relay, closing
the contactor and starting the progressing cavity
pump. The pump runs until the waste drops to six feet
from the sensor. The controller will automatically turn
off the internal relay, stopping the pump until the waste
again rises to within three feet of the sensor. This loop
runs indefinitely while the starter is in automatic mode.
In manual mode, the operator can manually control
the progressing-cavity pump to discharge waste as

VPL 600 Vertical Filtration Unit

SERVICING A VARIETY OF FLUIDS FILTRATION APPLICATIONS WITH PROVEN DESIGN AND PERFORMANCE
The VPL 600 Vertical Leaf Filtration Unit is ideal for the
treatment of completion fluids during wellbore clean-up,
gravel pack operations, workovers, water injection operations
and general seawater/brine filtration. The VPL 600 uses
powdered filter media, which is injected into the dirty inlet
stream. The unit is a proven performer in the market, with an
excellent track record for producing a continuous supply of
clean completion fluids. The VPL also possesses excellent
solids removal capabilities. Diatomaceous Earth or Perlite is
the preferred media for wellbore clean-up operations, due to

their high permeability and filtration qualities.
The brine is normally delivered to the VPL 600 via the rig
mixing pump. On arrival to the unit, the brine is dosed with the
powdered filter media and then fed through the filter unit. The
filter media builds a permeable “cake” on the filter screens,
capturing even the finest particles while still allowing the fluid
to pass through. The fluid is then fed through a cartridge filter,
fitted with 2-micron absolute filters, for a final polish, ensuring
that there will be no particles in the brine that can cause
formation damage.

SORBFLOW Oil-Absorption Filter Cartridges

ADVANCING FLUIDS FILTRATION WITH INNOVATIVE TECHNOLOGY
SORBFLOW cartridges employ a proprietary modified

polymer to remove hydrocarbons from fluids. This polymer
both absorbs and chemically binds the hydrocarbon
molecules into its interior matrices. This differs from the design
of the competition, which typically removes hydrocarbon via
surface absorption onto the filtration medium. SORBFLOW
cartridges enable users to reduce hydrocarbon levels to
meet discharge regulations, while increasing the working life
of valuable process fluids.

The affinity of the polymeric absorbent for hydrocarbon
molecules is so great, accelerated testing by the Toxic
Characteristics Leachate Procedure (TCLP) indicated the
effluent hydrocarbon level in water to be below current and
proposed SEPA/EPA limits. The modified polymer controls
the speed of absorption by eliminating the potential for
skin formation at the polymer/hydrocarbon interface.
Consequently, this polymer, when incorporated into a radial
flow-design cartridge, ensures maximum utilization of
surface area. The nature of the polymer makes it an effective
absorbent for free, emulsified and dissolved oils, synthetic
lubricants, grease and a multitude of organic solvents.

Mud Dewatering
Dewatering Water-Based Drilling Fluids

FURTHERING THE PROCESSING OF DRILLING FLUID IN SENSITIVE ENVIRONMENTS
NOV provides dewatering services which can remove

almost all colloidal particles down to clear water by
using chemical treatment (polymer), a manifold system
and a centrifuge. Most dewatering applications occur
in areas of zero discharge, where closed loop systems
are required. In closed loop systems, dewatering is the
final step of the mud processing process, following the
separation of liquid from solids provided by the shale
shakers, hydrocyclones and centrifuges.

Dewatering services may also be required where there
is a high cost or perceived future liability associated
with mud and/or solids disposal. Finally, dewatering
may also be performed when the active mud

Hydro-VAC
Hydro-VAC
VACUUM ASSISTED CYCLONE WITH EFFICIENT PARTICLE SIZE CLASSIFICATION
The Vacuum Assisted Cyclone, or Hydro-VAC, is a liquid/

solids separator that can be used to wash, classify and
dewater mineral slurries and other process streams.
Compared to conventional hydrocyclones, the Hydro-
VAC provides more consistent (drier) underflow, reduced
plugging from oversized particles and is virtually unaffected
by changes in feed density. These units operate at lower
feed pressures, reducing power requirements and apex
wear.
The Hydro-VAC has a proven track record in many
applications:
• Pond fines recovery
Industrial Products
• Concentrating concrete sand

• Degritting processes
• Scrubbing operations
• Dewatering drilled solids
Slurry is supplied to the feed inlet of the Hydro-VAC by a
centrifugal pump. The slurry enters the feed chamber, spirals
through the conical section and separates into two phases:
the dense solids underflow and the light liquid overflow.
The solids exit the Hydro-VAC through the apex and density
regulator. The clean fluid overflow exits the Hydro-VAC
through the vortex finder and siphons to an atmospheric
collection point below the separator. The amount of vacuum
is controlled by the overflow vacuum assembly.
