Baroid's new Double Deck Shaker provides the latest
advancement in the control of drilled solids. Two screens
are employed, usually a 30 mesh on top with an 80 mesh
below. The unit employs a gyrating motion rather than the
simple shaking motion of regular shale shakers. This
motion keeps the solid particles moving toward the dis-
charge end and helps prevent plugging of the screens.
Maximum capacity of the unit is 12 barrels of mud per
minute. Recommended power supply is three-phase 220
volts, AC, but units can be modified to use 110 volts,
single-phase AC or DC,

Baroid's Portable Liquid Mud Mixer provides an extra
100-barrel mud mixing capacity at the rig. It has been
used in combatting lost circulation, in weighting up rapidly
when unexpected formation pressures are encountered, and
as a general auxiliary to rig mixing equipment. Power is
supplied by a diesel driven pump. The hydraulically driven
mixing propeller can be raised or lowered to any desired
mixing level. Dry and liquid material can be added
directly to the mixing tank, or through a jet mixer on top
of the tank. Dry material can also be added through a
ground level hopper equipped with a conveyor system. The
entire unit is skid-mounted for easy handling.
