Clarifying Decanters for Oil & Gas
The higher demand for hydrocarbons is pushing us further into a tough environment. New high-tech rigs / FPSOs are developed to cope with these new challenges. Our contribution is to help you protect our fragile environment and to maintain the “zero discharge” philosophy.
Our available decanters for this application have a low bowl angle for optimal thickening and a hydraulic scroll drive for maximum power. We have also the patented bowl design for handling of brine with a specific gravity of up to 1.5 sg.
GEA has developed special decanters for treating drilling fluids. Apart from high-performing and top separation efficiency the decanter centrifuges distinguish themselves through safe operation and robust design. The decanter centrifuges are self-contained skid mounted centrifuge systems on a single frame with integrated control panel. They are suitable for installation in ATEX Ex-Zone 1 (Category 2G) Temperature Class T3 according to European Standards when treating Drilling Mud (classified as non-explosive product), or US equivalent class 1, Division 1.
