The shear mixer is an important component of a solids control system in the oil and gas industry. It is used to effectively mix and blend drilling fluids, especially those containing solid particles. The shear mixer helps to ensure that the drilling fluid has the proper viscosity, density, and chemical composition required for the drilling process.

The shear mixer works by using high-speed rotating blades to shear and mix the drilling fluid, breaking down any agglomerates and ensuring a consistent and homogenous mixture. This is crucial for maintaining the performance of the drilling fluid and preventing issues such as differential sticking, wellbore instability, and formation damage.

In the context of a solids control system, the shear mixer plays a key role in maintaining the quality and properties of the drilling fluid, ultimately contributing to the efficiency and success of the drilling operation.

Key Features and Specifications

The portable jet-mixer is designed to cater to the demanding requirements of modern drilling operations. It boasts a substantial capacity of 150-200 m3/h, making it suitable for large-scale projects. The input pressure range of 0.22～0.4MPa ensures that the mixer can operate under various conditions without compromising on efficiency. The T-joint size of 6” (DN150) and a nozzle diameter of 2” are optimized for the best mixing performance.

One of the most critical aspects of this jet-mixer is its treatment capacity. It can handle clay at a rate of 180kg/min and barite at an impressive 315 kg/min. This high treatment capacity is essential for maintaining the quality and consistency of the drilling mud, which in turn, affects the overall drilling performance.

Weighing in at 234 kg, the mixer is relatively lightweight, considering its robust construction and capabilities. The overall dimensions of 1545mmx752mmx1165mm make it compact enough for easy transportation and setup, yet large enough to handle significant volumes of materials.
