The Mud Desilter from KTK Energy is a high-efficiency solids control equipment designed for the third-phase separation in drilling fluid systems. It is primarily used to remove fine solid particles in the range of 15–44 microns, significantly improving drilling fluid performance and reducing equipment wear.
As a critical component of the solids control system, the desilter operates based on hydrocyclone separation principles, similar to desanders but with a finer cut point, ensuring enhanced solids removal efficiency.
Engineered in compliance with API standards, KTK Energy’s Mud Desilter integrates robust design, flexible configuration, and reliable performance, making it suitable for demanding onshore and offshore drilling environments.
