KOSUN Cuttings Dryers Drive Efficiency and Compliance in Global Drilling

Dec 24, 2025

As global environmental regulations for the energy sector become increasingly stringent, the efficient management of drilling waste has become a top priority for major oilfields. In December 2025, KOSUN once again earned international acclaim, solidifying its global leadership in the field of drilling waste management.

 
Russian Delegation Visits Chongqing to Witness "KOSUN Quality"
 
On December 13, 2025, a professional delegation from Russia traveled to Chongqing, China, to conduct an on-site inspection of the KOSUN Oil-Based Mud (OBM) drilling waste management System currently operating in the Chuanqing Oilfield.
During the field visit, the Russian clients focused on the performance of the KOSUN Vertical Cuttings Dryer. After observing the dryness of the processed solids and the overall system stability, the clients spoke highly of the equipment's performance under extreme working conditions. Test results demonstrated that the system not only significantly reduced total waste volume but also achieved a high recovery rate of oil-based mud. Impressed by the customized solutions and actual treatment effects, the delegation expressed a strong intent for long-term strategic cooperation.
 
Why KOSUN Vertical Cuttings Dryers are the Global Preferred Choice
Specifically engineered for the treatment of oil drilling mud, KOSUN’s vertical dryer offer several core advantages:
 
1. High Recovery, Turning Waste into Wealth
Utilizing advanced centrifugal separation principles, the vertical cuttings dryer effectively recovers liquid phases from cuttings and reintegrates the reclaimed OBM into the active circulation system. This drastically reduces mud loss caused by shaker overflows, rig moves, or screen blinding, directly cutting overall drilling operational costs.
 
2. Superior De-watering and Drying Performance Cutting Dryer
The solid phase processed by KOSUN dryers is exceptionally dry, with the oil content on cuttings reduced to below 3%. This not only meets the most rigorous international discharge standards but also significantly alleviates environmental pressure during subsequent transport and disposal.
 
3. Wear-Resistant Design Vertical Dryer for Extreme Environments
Extended Lifespan: Inner rotor blades are coated with tungsten carbide anti-corrosive and wear-resistant materials, significantly extending service life and reducing maintenance frequency.
Easy Maintenance: Common wear parts can be replaced from the top, and belts can be changed without moving the unit, ensuring continuous operations in complex environments like Russia or offshore platforms.
 
4. Versatile Offshore and Onshore Application Vertical Centrifuge
Whether for expansive land-based oilfields or challenging offshore rigs, KOSUN Cutting Dryer fulfill "Zero-Discharge" requirements, helping enterprises maximize economic benefits while ensuring total environmental compliance.
 
From China's Chuanqing Oilfield to the Russian energy market, KOSUN remains at the forefront of drilling environmental technology. This international inspection in late 2025 reaffirms that choosing KOSUN is choosing a world-class Drilling Cuttings Management solution.
