ANSI Bubbles Removing Poorboy Degasser For Oil Gas Drilling

Big Bubbles Removing Poor Boy Degasser APMGS800 for Oil and Gas Drilling

Poor boy degasser is also called mud gas separator is the first stage professional equipment to treat the gas invade mud. It is mainly used to remove the big bubbles with a diameter of more than 3mm. Most of these bubbles are the expanded gas filled in the drilling fluid in the annular of the wellbore. It would cause a well kick if not to remove it timely.

Pooy boy degasser is located downstream of the choke manifold, and is vertical installed near the shale shaker. We can say poor boy degasser is the first cleaning equipment in the whole solids control system.

Poor boy degasser APMGS800 

APMGS800 means the poor boy degasser is holding a vessel diameter 800mm. It is a popular model than other degassers. The treating capacity is up to 260m³/h. The degassing efficiency is up to 95%.

Main configuration of degasser APMGS800

The vessel diameter of the mud gas separator is 800mm, the inlet and discharge line is 5'', 8''. While the gas vent line is 8''. The overall dimension of the whole degasser is about 2000x2000x6000mm. The vessel material is made of national standard high quality carbon steel, and it can be stored at -50° to +50°

Why do we need the mud gas separator?

For oil and gas well drilling, we usually set mud gas separator ahead of shale shakers. The drilling mud out of the well-bore will flow into the degasser via the chock manifold. After degassed, fluid will flow out of the degasser into a shaker by pass or possum belly. Degasser will help get rid of large quantity invading gas. These are harmful and toxic gas may lead blow out

Especially when we drill the gas well at the gas field. The degassing is very important to safety working. We use the poor boy degasser and vacuum degasser together to control the gas volume entrained in drilling fluids and remove them efficiently.

Is there another type or model poor boy degasser?

Yes. There are APMGS1000, APMGS1200. The difference is the diameter of the line's diameter and the vessel thickness. Based on working conditions, there are normal pressure degasser and middle pressure, high-pressure degasser. And the working pressure can be 0.1Mpa to 6.4Mpa, or even higher according to practical condition. 

Besides the normal standard poor boy degasser, there are some degassers that can be customized. For example, we have made the APMGS500, APMGS600 degassers for clients who request smaller degasser and smaller flow rate. Please feel free to let us know the requirement of your degasser.

There is a customizable configuration of the mud leg. That means the U tuber or mud seal length for a degasser. The mud seal will help to prevent gas flowing out of the degasser during operation. For the degasser leg and base, we can configure it as the adjustable one. That means the laydown leg and the supporting base can be configured flexibly.
