The BRANDT Slurrification System receives the drilled cuttings from the rig's solids control equipment and other drilling waste management sources.

Description
In the BRANDT™ Slurrification System, drilled cuttings are transported to the slurrification package via gravity feed or other means of transportation, where they are mixed with water (and chemicals if required).
With a combination of mix-tank agitators and grinding pumps, the cuttings are made into a pumpable slurry of known particle size for transfer to batch-holding tanks or directly to the variable-speed injection pump. A predetermined rate and pressure are established before injecting the cuttings via the casing annulus into the injection zone.
The better a process can be measured, the better it can be managed, and the more efficient it will be.
