I’ve run into several instances of insufficient suction stabilization on rigs where a “standpipe” is installed off the suction manifold. The thought behind this design was to create a gas-over-fluid column for the reciprocating pump and eliminate cavitation.

When the standpipe is installed on the suction manifold’s deadhead side, there’s little opportunity to get fluid into all the cylinders to prevent cavitation. Also, the reciprocating pump and charge pump are not isolated.

The suction stabilizer’s compressible feature is designed to absorb the negative energies and promote smooth fluid flow. As a result, pump isolation is achieved between the charge pump and the reciprocating pump.

The isolation eliminates pump chatter, and because the reciprocating pump’s negative energies never reach the charge pump, the pump’s expendable life is extended.

Investing in suction stabilizers will ensure your pumps operate consistently and efficiently. They can also prevent most challenges related to pressure surges or pulsations in the most difficult piping environments.

Cavitation is an undesirable condition that reduces pump efficiency and leads to excessive wear and damage to pump components. Factors that can contribute to cavitation, such as fluid velocity and pressure, can sometimes be attributed to an inadequate mud system design and/or the diminishing performance of the mud pump’s feed system.

When a mud pump has entered full cavitation, rig crews and field service technicians will see the equipment shaking and hear the pump “knocking,” which typically sounds like marbles and stones being thrown around inside the equipment. However, the process of cavitation starts long before audible signs reveal themselves – hence the name “the silent killer.”

Mild cavitation begins to occur when the mud pump is starved for fluid. While the pump itself may not be making noise, damage is still being done to the internal components of the fluid end. In the early stages, cavitation can damage a pump’s module, piston and valve assembly.

The imperceptible but intense shock waves generated by cavitation travel directly from the fluid end to the pump’s power end, causing premature vibrational damage to the crosshead slides. The vibrations are then passed onto the shaft, bull gear and into the main bearings.

If not corrected, the vibrations caused by cavitation will work their way directly to critical power end components, which will result in the premature failure of the mud pump. A busted mud pump means expensive downtime and repair costs.

To stop cavitation before it starts, install and tune high-speed pressure sensors on the mud suction line set to sound an alarm if the pressure falls below 30 psi.

Although the pump may not be knocking loudly when cavitation first presents, regular inspections by a properly trained field technician may be able to detect moderate vibrations and slight knocking sounds.

Gardner Denver offers Pump University, a mobile classroom that travels to facilities and/or drilling rigs and trains rig crews on best practices for pumping equipment maintenance.

Severe cavitation will drastically decrease module life and will eventually lead to catastrophic pump failure. Along with downtime and repair costs, the failure of the drilling pump can also cause damage to the suction and discharge piping.

When a mud pump has entered full cavitation, rig crews and field service technicians will see the equipment shaking and hear the pump ‘knocking’… However, the process of cavitation starts long before audible signs reveal themselves – hence the name ‘the silent killer.’In 2017, a leading North American drilling contractor was encountering chronic mud system issues on multiple rigs. The contractor engaged in more than 25 premature module washes in one year and suffered a major power-end failure.

Gardner Denver’s engineering team spent time on the contractor’s rigs, observing the pumps during operation and surveying the mud system’s design and configuration.

The engineering team discovered that the suction systems were undersized, feed lines were too small and there was no dampening on the suction side of the pump.

Following the implementation of these recommendations, the contractor saw significant performance improvements from the drilling pumps. Consumables life was extended significantly, and module washes were reduced by nearly 85%.

Although pump age does not affect its susceptibility to cavitation, the age of the rig can. An older rig’s mud systems may not be equipped for the way pumps are run today – at maximum horsepower.

The report covers comprehensive information about market trends, volume (Units) and value (US$ Mn) projections, competition and recent developments and market dynamics in the global mud pumps market for the study period of 2013 to 2026.

The global mud pumps market is expected to reach a little over US$ 1,085 Mn over the forecast period, registering a CAGR of 4.4%. Growth in drilling activities in the oil & gas Industry to increase hydrocarbon production and ease of the mud circulation operation in drilling holes are some of the factors expected to lay a robust foundation for the growth of the global mud pumps market.

Mud pumps can be classified on the basis of the number of pistons into duplex, triplex and quintuplex, which consist of two, three and five pistons respectively. The triplex segment is expected to dominate the mud pumps market in terms of value as well as volume during the entire forecast period.

Triplex mud pumps find extensive usage in circulating drilling fluid with high pressure for deep oil well drilling application. These usage characteristics make them preferable for use, primarily in onshore and offshore oil well drilling applications.

Mud pumps are widely utilized in the oil & gas industry. On the basis of the mode of operation, mud pumps can be classified as electric and fuel engine mud pumps.

Fuel engine mud pumps use petroleum oils as the key liquefying agent. These types of mud pumps release hazardous gases into the environment. In order to contain the hazardous impact of fuel engine mud pumps on the environment, regulatory authorities are compelling manufacturers and consumers to opt for electric mud pumps, which do not emit volatile organic compounds and operate with low noise and low vibration. Electric mud pumps offer smooth operations in drilling rigs and are environment-friendly, which is why they dominate the market for mud pumps.

The electric mud pumps segment is projected to grow with a 4.5% CAGR during the forecast period in view of the tightening emission control regulations and is expected to create an absolute $ opportunity worth US$ 134 Mn between 2018 and 2026.

Among all the applications analyzed in this global mud pumps market study, the onshore application of mud pumps is expected to register about 1.43X growth in terms of value between 2018 and 2026. The offshore application of mud pumps is projected to register moderate growth during the entire forecast period, led by land oil field discoveries.

In terms of incremental $ opportunity, onshore and offshore segments are expected to compete within large margins. The onshore application of mud pumps is expected to occupy over an 86% share in terms of value by the end of 2026.

Increasing oil-well exploration activities, stable economic conditions and consistent growth in oil well drilling rig sales in the region are expected to drive the demand for mud pumps in the region.

The comparatively well-established production sector in the region and increasing oil and gas industry and hydrocarbon consumption will create a healthy platform for the growth of the mud pumps market. Some regions including China and Europe are expected to gain traction in the latter half of the forecast period, owing to the anticipated growth of the oil & gas industry in these regions. North America is expected to register above-average 1.1X growth in the market. All the other regions are anticipated to exhibit moderate growth during the same period.
