Mud pumps are used for drilling operations and they are reciprocating plunging pumps. It works by circulating the drilling fluid or the mud on the drilling rig. Drilling mud pumps are the most important types of equipment used in the oil drilling process. Based on the time consumed, it can be categorized to accomplish the drainage and suction in a single cycle. Shale Pumps are your ideal choice for different kinds of equipment that will suit any operation and pumping capacity. Of late, triplex and quintuplex are the most needed pumps. They are named after the number of plungers or pistons they use.
Triplex drilling pumps contain three pistons whereas quintuplex contains five pistons. Even though hex pumps that come with six pistons are available, but quintuplex is the most sought after. Some of the features of quintuplex drilling mud pumps are as follows:
- Enhance pumping capacity
- Cost savings
- Operational efficiency
- Robust build and durable features
- Easy maintenance
Shale Pumps are the reliable and reputable supplier of all kinds of drilling mud pumps. When you place your order, it will be directly supplied to the place you want it to be. You can rest assured about the design and modern technology which can cope-up with the growth as well as changing demands of the natural gas as well as crude oil industries. These pumps also offer smooth operations with minimal vibration and noise but deliver high viscosity and high concentration.
These pumps are designed in such a way that they can provide a stable flow of the fluid but at the same time no pulsation as well as over-current. The discharge pressure is different from flow speed. This provides the operator to adjust displacement by attaching a motor or through the shifting mechanism. These drilling mud pumps also come with self-absorption capacity. Hence, they suck the liquid directly even without a bottom valve. It should be noted that displacement is proportionate to speed. It can be adjusted with the motor or through the shifting mechanism.
Thus, drilling mud pumps are essential in both natural gas and oil extraction industries. When you get it supplied by Shale Pumps, you can rest assured of the quality of the mud pumps and after-sales services are also good.
