Rent or Buy Oil & Gas Drilling Equipment

Get separation technology engineered for the intense demands of drilling operations. Our large bowl centrifuge systems keep pace with fast drilling speeds, processing high fluid volumes with exceptional solids removal that smaller units simply cannot match.

These systems run continuously under harsh field conditions, managing variable mud weights, capturing costly barite additives, and eliminating low-gravity solids that defeat conventional equipment. With fast deployment and full field support, your drilling operations maintain peak fluid performance without interruption.

Why Diamond T Services?

Diamond T is the drilling industry’s go-to partner for operators seeking reliable fluid management, environmental compliance, and equipment that performs under pressure. As Alfa Laval’s Master Distributor, we maintain an extensive fleet of drilling-grade centrifuges ready for deployment, anywhere you’re drilling. With decades of experience supporting major operations, we understand the realities of drilling: volatile commodity prices, regulatory scrutiny, and zero tolerance for equipment failures that impact production.

Every barrel of recovered drilling fluid saves real money, every pound of reclaimed barite cuts operational expenses, and equipment downtime kills project economics. Our solutions deliver measurable performance gains that show up directly on your bottom line.

Oil & Gas Drilling Solutions FAQs

Why do drilling operations need high-capacity centrifuges?

Drilling operations generate massive volumes of drilling fluids that require continuous processing to maintain operational efficiency. High-capacity centrifuges handle these volumes while maintaining continuous operation without bottlenecks that slow progress or compromise fluid quality. Traditional small centrifuges simply cannot keep up with the demands of high-volume drilling operations, creating costly delays and performance issues.

Barite increases drilling mud density to counteract formation pressures and maintain wellbore stability. This expensive additive can be recovered and reused multiple times through effective centrifuge separation. Operations with proper barite recovery slash disposal costs of barite-laden solids, while maintaining precise mud weight control throughout drilling.

Oil and gas operations use various separation technologies for fluid management:

  • Shale shakers and linear motion screens
  • Hydrocyclones and desanders/desilters
  • Mud cleaners and degassers
  • Settling tanks and retention systems
  • Chemical treatment and flocculation

Decanter centrifuges outperform other methods for challenging requirements, excelling at removing low-gravity solids that defeat conventional equipment. They eliminate expensive diesel dilution needs and achieve higher fluid recovery rates with consistent performance regardless of formation conditions or mud properties.

Our drilling solutions feature Alfa Laval’s advanced centrifuge technology, integrated with complete fluid management systems:

  • High-capacity decanter centrifuges for primary solids control
  • Specialized barite recovery units for mud weight management
  • Variable speed drives for optimal separation performance
  • High-pressure pumps for fluid transfer and circulation
  • Automated chemical injection and polymer systems
  • Real-time monitoring and control packages
  • Backup equipment for critical operations

Centrifuge systems deliver measurable improvements across drilling fluid management:

  • Superior low-gravity solids removal extends fluid life and boosts efficiency
  • Maximum barite recovery cuts additive costs while maintaining consistency
  • Higher fluid recovery rates minimize waste disposal and environmental impact
  • Continuous processing matches drilling speeds without interruption
  • Precise solids control improves wellbore stability and reduces problems
  • Enclosed operation enhances safety and meets environmental standards
