GN Solids Control is pleased to announce the establishment of GN New Chem, a specialized company focused on chemical products and process solutions for oil and gas drilling, oilfield production, waste treatment, mining, and environmental applications.

The establishment of GN New Chem represents an important step in GN’s continued development from a solids control equipment manufacturer into a more comprehensive solution provider combining:

Equipment + Chemicals + Process Expertise

For many years, GN Solids Control has provided solids control systems, drilling waste management equipment, decanter centrifuges, vertical cuttings dryers, mud treatment systems, and oily sludge treatment solutions to customers around the world.

In many of these applications, the performance of mechanical equipment is closely related to the chemical properties of the material being treated. Suitable chemical products can improve drilling fluid performance, enhance solids-liquid separation, increase oil recovery, reduce waste volume, and improve the overall efficiency of the treatment process.

GN New Chem has been established to strengthen GN’s chemical product capabilities and provide customers with more complete and application-oriented solutions.

The main business areas of GN New Chem include:

• Drilling fluid additives;
• Oilfield production chemicals;
• Drilling waste treatment chemicals;
• Oily sludge treatment chemicals;
• Water and wastewater treatment chemicals;
• Mining and mineral processing chemicals.

For drilling operations, GN New Chem will provide chemical products for fluid-loss control, viscosity adjustment, shale inhibition, lubrication, plugging, and other drilling fluid requirements.

For oilfield production applications, the company will provide specialty chemicals such as demulsifiers, corrosion inhibitors, scale inhibitors, paraffin-control chemicals, and other products used in oil and gas production and treatment processes.

For drilling waste and oily sludge treatment, GN New Chem chemicals can be used together with GN Solids Control equipment, including shale shakers, decanter centrifuges, mud dewatering units, and oily sludge treatment systems.

The combination of suitable chemicals and reliable separation equipment can help improve oil-water-solid separation, recover valuable hydrocarbons, reduce residual waste, and lower overall disposal costs.

GN New Chem will also provide laboratory testing, chemical selection, dosing recommendations, and process optimization based on the customer’s material characteristics, operating conditions, and treatment objectives.

Through the cooperation between GN Solids Control and GN New Chem, customers will be able to obtain more coordinated solutions covering:

• Solids control and mud recycling;
• Drilling fluid treatment;
• Drilling waste management;
• Oily sludge treatment;
• Oil and water separation;
• Chemical dosing and process optimization;
• Technical support and field service.

The establishment of GN New Chem further expands GN’s product portfolio and strengthens the Group’s ability to serve global customers in the oil and gas, mining, environmental, and industrial treatment markets.

GN Solids Control and GN New Chem will continue working together to develop more efficient, economical, and environmentally responsible solutions for customers worldwide.

Middle East. This delivery demonstrates our continued commitment to providing essential solids control equipment for the region’s demanding drilling operations.

ZCQ Series Vacuum Degasser

The ZCQ series vacuum degasser is a specialized device designed for the effective treatment of gas-contaminated drilling fluids. It can quickly remove various invasive gases from drilling fluids, making it a critical component for maintaining drilling fluid integrity.

Key features and benefits include:

Rapid gas removal: Effectively eliminates entrained gases such as methane, carbon dioxide, and hydrogen sulfide from drilling fluids.

Restores mud properties: Returns mud gravity to optimal levels and stabilizes viscosity, ensuring proper hydrostatic pressure and well control.

Cost reduction: Minimizes the need for costly chemical treatments and reduces non-productive time associated with fluid degradation.

Dual functionality: Can also serve as a heavy-duty agitator, making it a versatile component applicable to all types of mud circulation purification systems.

Scientifically designed structure: Achieves effective gas-liquid separation, filters out impurities, and ensures the exhaust pipe remains clear and unobstructed.

Shale Shakers

The shale shaker is the first phase solids control equipment in any drilling fluid processing system. As the key equipment in the drilling mud system, shale shaker performance directly affects the efficiency of the entire solids control system.

GN Solids Control offers comprehensive shale shaker solutions:

Customized configurations: GN can design double shakers and triplicate shakers on a single skid according to clients’ special requirements, and also supply relevant connecting manifolds.

Advanced technology: GN provides both third-generation linear motion shale shakers and fourth-generation balanced elliptical shale shakers to meet diverse operational needs.

Superior design: GNZS linear motion shale shakers incorporate advanced technology from domestic and international sources, combined with GN’s own design innovations. The complete series of shale shakers can meet customers’ variable demands.

Client feedback has consistently confirmed the advantages of GN shale shakers, including high G-force, wide screen area, compressed structure, and cost-effectiveness.

This shipment to the Middle East reinforces GN Solids Control’s position as a reliable supplier of essential solids control equipment for the global oil and gas industry. We remain dedicated to providing innovative, field-proven solutions that enhance operational efficiency and safety.

GN Solids Control is pleased to announce the successful shipment of a fully hydraulic drive decanter centrifuge and a vertical cuttings dryer to a valued client in Asia. This delivery demonstrates our continued commitment to providing advanced solids control and drilling waste management solutions across the region.

Fully Hydraulic Drive Decanter Centrifuge

The centerpiece of this shipment is the fully hydraulic drive decanter centrifuge. Unlike conventional electric motor-driven models, this centrifuge features a cutting-edge hydraulic drive system designed for demanding drilling operations.

The system drives both the conveyor and bowl from a hydraulic pump unit through two independent hydraulic oil circuits, enabling precise and flexible adjustment of bowl speed and scroll differential speed even during operation. This capability optimizes separation performance under varying feed conditions and makes the centrifuge particularly well-suited for high-temperature environments and heavy mud applications.

With fewer electrical components, the hydraulic system reduces the risk of electrical failures, simplifies troubleshooting, and minimizes downtime. The centrifuge, hydraulic drive system, and control panel are integrated on a single skid for easy rig-up and transport.

Vertical Cuttings Dryer

Complementing the centrifuge is a vertical cuttings dryer, a core piece of equipment for drilling waste management. Primarily designed to treat drill cuttings discharged from shale shakers when drilling with oil-based or synthetic-based mud, the dryer utilizes high-speed centrifugal force to effectively remove residual liquid from cuttings.
