Vacuum Degasser

Overview

Resources

The vacuum degasser is the most common form of degassing systems used in the oil & gas industry. Drillng fluid is pulled into the tank by vacuum action. The fluid rises inside the tank and is distributed over a series of plates which releases the gas bubbles from the drilling fluid. The gas is pumped out of the system and the fluid transferred to hydrocyclones or a centrifuge for further processing.

  • Each plate features a weir design for equal distribution of liquid across surface.

  •  Multiple stacked plates spreads gas-cut mud so that entrained gas bubbles are brought to the surface where deep corrugation provides turbulance giving maximum separation efficiency of gases from mud.

  • Vent on each plate for direct vertical exiting of the separated gases.
