Drilling & Exploration Waste
Drilling waste consists of drilling mud and drill cuttings. SAS provides whole system solutions and unique chemicals for the successful treatment of both liquid OBM waste and solid drill cuttings
SAS solutions cover:
MIST 344 Process for Drill Cuttings Treatment
MIST 220 System for Oil Based Mud Treatment
BioRemed product line for bioremediation of drilling waste
SAS Chemicals for the treatment of liquid drilling waste
Drill Cuttings Treatment - MIST 344 Process
Reducing the oil on drill cuttings to below 1% is achieved through our MIST 344 process. This chemically enhanced cuttings wash system is able to process up to 50 ton per hour of OBM drill cuttings. Any liquid waste remaining is processed through a 19” decanter and through the injection of unique SAS chemicals, dry solids are recovered.
The process is capable of treating drill cuttings to 0.5% - 3% Oil On Cuttings post treatment. Total Petroleum Hydrocarbon content depends on the age of the cuttings and we provide bio remediation services to reduce remaining TPH to under 1%
Liquid OBM Mud & Slops Treatment
SAS provides MIST systems for the treatment of liquid drilling waste.
Our MIST systems are designed with field tested and proven engineering equipment. MIST systems are supplied with capabilities ranging from 0.5 ton per hour up to 50 ton per hour.
MIST systems work in combination with SAS SlopTreat and SAS SludgeTreat chemicals. These chemicals are developed in-house, based on microemulsion chemistry, and separate the oil, water and solids phases.
The result is dry recovered solids, water for disposal and oil, which can be re-used in most projects.
MIST systems are supplied on a skid or within a certified 20’ or 40’ container.
