Operating Guide for Drilling Waste Disposal System

Pub Date:Sep 15, 2025    |    Views:111    |    

In the drilling operation process, the drilling waste treatment system plays a crucial role in environmental protection and reduction. Its core equipment includes vibrating screens,

 centrifuges and other devices. The operational status of this system not only directly determines the efficiency of waste treatment, but is also closely linked to environmental protection compliance. 

To ensure the long-term stable operation of the system, on-site operations must strictly follow the following principles. 

Detailed requirements should be implemented from four dimensions: pre-startup inspection, operation process control, regular maintenance and upkeep, 

and full-process safety protection. The following are the specific operation points.

I. Comprehensive inspection before startup: Eliminate potential hazards in advance from equipment to accessories

A comprehensive inspection before the system starts up is a key step to avoid faults during operation. It should cover both core equipment and supporting facilities, and eliminate potential problems one by one.

Special inspection of core equipment

Vibrating screen inspection: Focus on checking the firmness of the motor wiring. If the wiring is loose, it may cause power interruption during operation or motor damage. Carefully inspect the integrity of the screen cloth. If there is any damage, tear or positional shift, it should be replaced or adjusted in time to avoid incomplete filtration of rock cuttings due to excessive gaps in the screen cloth, which may affect the efficiency of subsequent processing steps.

Centrifuge inspection: Primarily, check the oil level and quality of the lubricating oil. If the oil level is lower than the marked scale line, or if the oil quality shows signs of deterioration such as turbidity or blackening, it is necessary to immediately replenish qualified lubricating oil or completely replace it to prevent excessive wear of the bearings due to insufficient lubrication and shorten the service life of the equipment.


2. Simultaneous verification of supporting facilities

In addition to the core equipment, the integrity of the supporting facilities is equally important. It is necessary to confirm that the waste conveying pipeline is free from blockage and deformation. Manually test the flexibility of the valve opening and closing to ensure smooth material conveying.

II. Dynamic Control during operation: Real-time monitoring of parameters and precise adjustment of operations

During the system operation stage, it is necessary to dynamically monitor the equipment status and key parameters throughout the process. Adjust the operation in a timely manner according to the actual situation to ensure the processing effect and equipment safety. For instance, when the vibrating screen is in operation, it is necessary to observe in real time whether the amplitude of the equipment is uniform and whether the operating noise is normal. If abnormal vibration (such as tilting and shaking of the machine body) or sharp abnormal noise occurs, the machine should be stopped immediately to check the shock-absorbing spring, determine whether there is a problem of spring breakage, aging or misalignment during installation, and repair or replace it in time.


III. Maintenance and Care Strategy: Regular inspection and targeted maintenance to extend the service life of the equipment

Maintenance and upkeep after the system is shut down is a crucial step to extend the service life of the equipment and reduce the probability of failure. It is necessary to formulate targeted maintenance plans based on the characteristics of different equipment and establish a complete maintenance ledger. In addition, a maintenance plan can be formulated based on a customized cycle of "comprehensive inspection once a month", with a focus on checking the wear and tear of vulnerable parts such as screens, filter cloths, and sealing rings. The demand for spare parts can be statistically analyzed in advance and a reserve warehouse established to prevent system shutdowns due to missing components and ensure the continuity of drilling operations and waste disposal processes.


IV. Safety Protection Regulations: From personnel protection to regional management, comprehensively prevent risks

On-site operations should incorporate safety protection throughout the entire process. By standardizing personnel operations, strengthening regional management, and equipping emergency facilities, safety risks can be minimized to the greatest extent. Operators must wear protective equipment that meets the standards throughout the process: safety helmets must be worn when entering the site, acid and alkali resistant gloves should be worn when handling equipment and waste, and chemical protective suits and protective glasses should be worn when handling chemical agents to prevent the agents from coming into contact with the skin and eyes. Before equipment maintenance, the power supply must be cut off and a dedicated person should be assigned to supervise to prevent accidental start-up and potential safety accidents.


The on-site operation and management of the drilling waste treatment system should place equal importance on "equipment stability" and "environmental protection and safety". 

By implementing key points such as comprehensive inspection before startup, dynamic control during operation, scientific maintenance when out of service, and full-process safety protection, 

not only can the efficiency of waste treatment be effectively improved to ensure compliance with environmental protection regulations, 

but also the service life of equipment can be prolonged and safety risks reduced, providing a solid guarantee for the smooth progress of drilling operations.
