duplex mud pump formula in stock

Rig pump output, normally in volume per stroke, of mud pumps on the rig is  one of important figures that we really need to know because we will use pump out put figures to calculate many parameters such as bottom up strokes,  wash out depth, tracking drilling fluid, etc. In this post, you will learn how to calculate pump out put for triplex pump and duplex pump in bothOilfield and Metric Unit.

Pump Output per Stroke (PO): The calculator returns the pump output per stroke in barrels (bbl).  However this can be automatically converted to other volume units (e.g. gallons or liters) via the pull-down menu.

A triplex mud (or slush) pump has three horizontal plungers (cylinders) driven off of one crankshaft. Triplex mud pumps are often used for oil drilling.

Depending on liner size availability they can be set up to provide high pressure and low flow rate, or low pressure and high flow rate. Analysis of the application and running the Drill Bits hydraulics program will indicate which liners to recommend. Finding the specification of the mud pumps allows flow rate to be calculated from pump stroke rate, SPM. Information requiredo Pump manufacturer o Number of pumps o Liner size and gallons per revolution Weight As a drill bit cutting structure wears more weight will be required to achieve the same RoP in a homogenous formation. PDC wear flats, worn inserts and worn milled tooth teeth will make the bit drill less efficiently. Increase weight in increments of 2,000lbs approx. In general, weight should be applied before excessive rotary speed so that the cutting structure maintains a significant depth of cut to stabilise the bit and prevent whirl. If downhole weight measurements are available they can be used in combination with surface measurements to gain a more accurate representation of what is happening in the well bore.

NOTE: Max RPM in the above equation varies according to type of pump, size of stroke, and other variables. Duplex pumps often run about 100 RPM Max. while triplex pumps will run somewhere between 100 RPM Max and 400 RPM Max.

I have a reciprocating pump and I know what my max rated rod load is (in foot pounds). I also know what size plunger size my pump has. What PSI will my pump produce?

Specific Gravity is used when sizing a centrifugal pump. Liquids with a specific gravity greater than 1.0 are heavier than water and conversely, liquids with a specific gravity lower than 1.0 are lighter weight than water and will generally float on water.

The difference incalculations for a duplex vs. a triplex pump is that the displacement volume of this pump rodmust be subtracted from the volume in one of the cylinders, plus the difference in number ofpumping cylinders; 4 for a duplex and 3 for a triplex. Duplex pumps generally have longerstrokes (in the 10 to 18 in. range) and operate at lower rate; in the 40 to 80 stroke/minrange.The general equation to calculate output of a duplex pump is:Pump output (litres/stroke) = ,Where:ID = ID of the linerOD = OD of the rodL = Length of the pump strokeEff = Pump efficiency (decimal)1800, 505 – 3 rd Street SW Calgary, Alberta, Canada T2P 3E6 Telephone: 403.547.2906 Fax: 403.547.3129Email: info@hitechfluid.com Web: www.hitechfluid.com

A triplex pump is a classification of mud pump commonly used for oil drilling. The primary purpose of a mud pump is to circulate the mud, also called drilling fluid, during drilling operations. It works by forcing drilling fluid down the hollow drill string and back up through the annulus.

The GPM formula is 60 divided by the number of seconds it takes to fill a one gallon container. So if you took 10 seconds to fill a gallon container, your GPM measurement would be 6 GPM (60/10 seconds = 6 GPM).

Duplex pumps have two pistons or plungers while triplex pumps contain three. This means duplex pumps must move faster to generate the same pressure levels as triplex pumps, consequently wearing their parts faster, and often causing a pulsating effect.

The pump should be able to provide adequate horsepower while drilling all hole sections. The extreme hole conditions occur when the surface hole and the total hole depth are drilled. Drilling the surface hole requires the highest mud flow, and drilling at the total depth requires the highest pump pressure.

Plastic viscosity and yield point are the two parameters used to describe the rheological characteristics of Bingham plastic fluids. The minimum required mud flow rate from the mud pump is equal to the minimum required mud velocity times the maximum possible cross-sectional area of annular space during drilling.

The macerator pump uses a stainless steel fast-rotating cutting blade to convert solids and fluids into a fine slurry that is discharged under pressure through small-diameter piping (¾-inch or 1-inch) and expelled into the sewage line or septic tank.
