Oil Patch Bits: M-I SWACO introduces next generation shaker

M-I SWACO said May 2 that it has released the MONGOOSE Pro shaker, designed specifically to meet current and future drilling needs.

The shaker operates in two modes: The efficiency mode is a progressive elliptical motion that produces 6.5 G and the capacity mode is a balanced elliptical motion that produces 7.5 G. The patent-pending Progressive Elliptical motion has been field proven on the MD-3 shale shaker, which allows flexibility to handle changing drilling conditions. The Progressive Elliptical motion rapidly separates solids and quickly moves them out of the pool area while increasing the residence time on the drying area, resulting in dryer cuttings.

The Mongoose Pro shaker uses the patented Duraflo composite screens that seal to the shaker deck thanks to the P-Seal that is integrated into the shaker screen beds and simple wedges that are positioned into place. The composite screen, unlike traditional metal back screens, bends to conform to the arch, creating a tight seal while also providing superior performance, extended service life and increased API screening area.
