3 Crucial Oilfield Tools for Cleaning Rigs

Using heavy machinery in oilfields is not an easy task. The build-up of debris can lead to fire outbreaks, air pollution, and breathing problems for the employees who have to work with heavy machines in oilfields. Moreover, it can also cause the equipment to slow down, malfunction, and even break down completely. By using high pressure washing for oil rigs , they can be cleaned effectively and without too much manual labour. Drums, pipes, storage tanks, towers, reactors, and vacuum units are some of the important parts of refineries that need regular and expert cleaning.  First and foremost, degreasing needs to be done which makes the equipment free from harmful gases and chemicals thereby allowing the maintenance workers to enter it for further cleaning. Another effective method is pressure washing which can clean the build-up of debris and dirt. However, knowing how to use a pressure washer is extremely important. If the high-pressure water gets in contact with any person, it c

It’s Time to Talk about Various Oil Field Services

  The oil and gas industry plays a very crucial role in the development of a country. The oil and gas this industry produced is used in daily accommodation and working operations. However, it is not easy to produce that much oil and gas continuously without any external effort. Thus, to carry out major operations easily and efficiently, the oil and gas industry requires the best oil field services.   Oil field services are very important for the oil and gas industry, as these services are required to keep the efficiency and outcome of the industry better and more productive. Now let us look at some of the services that are provided by an oil field industry. Hydrovac Truck Services Hydrovac truck services are done to excavate or evacuate with the use of vacuum and water. In this process, the proper utilization of pressurized water is done to remove debris and soil and evacuate the area. All of this process is done with the  Vacuum trucks  provided by oil field  companies .

Cleaning Oil Fields with Pressure Washers

The oil and gas sector is considered to be one of the most global powerhouses of the world’s biggest sector. The importance of the oil and gas industry is known to all of us. Thousands of employees work 24/7 just to meet the current needs of the world. Due to the inflammable nature of oil, it’s hazardous to work around rig and refineries as it creates a major risk of explosion.  So, Cleaning plays a major role to make oil fields safe. Since the machinery is too heavy to clean with traditional ways,  oilfield pressure washing services  are used nowadays. How does Pressure Washing help? For heavy-duty equipment, oil rigs accumulate sludge and grime which is difficult to clean with brushes. A power washer uses high-pressure water spray to remove oil and sludge from the machine parts which is not possible with traditional ways of cleaning. It is a far more safer and efficient way of cleaning. How Explosion-Proof Pressure Washing helps? An explosion-proof pressure washer uses de

Water Hauling Services in Hydraulic Fracturing

  In the oilfields, a massive amount of water fluid such as saltwater is produced during extraction. As this is the waste fluid, there is a need to remove and dispose of it. Several other functions require water, but due to its unavailability in all the areas, the need for water hauling services arises.  Water is used for extracting oil from cracks and pores in conventional fields. It's another use is in washing equipment and dust control. Not just this, water also plays a role in hydraulic fracturing for extracting crude oil and natural gas.     Hydraulic Fracturing Increasing the production of a well is a critical component of the exploration of the oilfield. Since 1949, hydraulic fracturing became a part of the oil industry. Before that, either nitroglycerin  detonations or dynamite were into use.    However, today, the majority of oil and gas wells in the United States use hydraulic fracturing. Apart from improving the performance of the well, it lessens drilling and

Shale Shaker in the Processes of Oilfields

Image
  A shale shaker is a separation tool that is used for removing the portions of cutting (solids) from the drilling liquid. It is an essential equipment of drilling that plays the first phase of controlling solid on a drilling rig. It is one of the most necessary parts of the drilling equipment. Apart from the oil and gas industry, this equipment is also used in other industries such as coal mining and cleaning, ore mining, and cleaning.    How Does It Work?   Shale Shakers consist of a screen that separates solid particles. Removing large solids or portions of cuttings from drilling fluids is necessary for the uninterrupted continuation of the properties of the fluid. These screens can be modified to fit effectively and supply enhanced flow rates, removal of superior solids, and expanded life of the screen.    Most of the shale shakers work by flowing the fluid on the top of the screening surface. It leads to the removal of larger solids at the discharge end, along with smaller s

Testing the Shale Shaker System for Enhanced Working

Image
  No doubt, a Shale shaker is important in separating mud from drilling solids, on the rig. The smaller solids are separated from the larger solids as they (smaller solids) pass through the mesh screen and the larger ones stay on the screen bed, getting removed later. The smaller solids that passed through the mesh are again purified in the mud tank. Thus, it is important that the shaker screen selected must match your drilling requirements. However, the selection of the shaker screen also depends on its G-force. The g-force number states the vibration speed of the shale shaker screen bed. Thus, while selecting the shale shaker, in addition to your drilling requirements, the shale shaker system testing should also be considered and checked. Most of the companies that manufacture shale shaker screen tests its G force number before shipping it. Moreover, most of the companies that use a Shale Shaker Screen also test the shaker’s system through a G-Force Testing Meter. They also check

4 Points to Remember While Hiring Water Hauling Services

Image
Typical drilling operation produces a large amount of waste fluid by products that require to be removed and disposed of. To discard these waste fluid by products, oilfield water haulers are used which transport waste fluid away from drilling sites to approved disposal sites. These vacuum equipped trucks not only throw away waste fluids but also haul water from various locations to small water systems for fulfilling the customer’s needs. However, finding the right company for water hauling can be a complex, time-consuming, and tiresome process as numerous water hauling companies promise to provide fast and affordable access to hauling water. Here are 4 points to remember before selecting a company which provides trustworthy water hauling services –  Equipment Water hauling equipment generally includes a rig at the front of the truck, a tank at the back with varying water holding capacities (500-5,000 gallons), and a piece of pumping equipment comprising of spray nozzles.
