During 1st week of June 2026, we received our very good friends and clients from Nigeria, West Africa for the inspection of solids control equipment & drilling waste management equipment. It is repeated purchase order from our VIP client; this is another major victory for our brand KES Separation entering West Africa. The client bought one set Vertical cuttings dryer (painted in orange color) in 2025 and has been working with the VCD for several contracts. The client is very happy with the working performance and the drying efficiency of the Vertical cuttings dryer designed/manufactured by KES Separation.
The repeated order from our clients mainly includes 3 products, vertical cuttings dryer (painted in deep blue color), solids control centrifuge (painted in deep blue color) and several sets of pumps. More information was provided in below content for the application and technical features of the key equipment in oil drilling mud treatment.
KES Separation Vertical Cuttings Dryer for Nigeria Drilling Waste Management
The KES Separation Vertical Cuttings Dryer is a high-performance centrifugal system designed for oil and gas drilling waste management, specifically targeting oil-based mud (OBM) and synthetic-based mud (SBM) cuttings. As the core equipment in KES’s drilling waste solutions, it addresses two critical industry needs: recovering valuable drilling fluids and reducing the oil-on-cuttings (OOC) content to meet global environmental regulations.
After so many years dedication, our vertical cuttings dryer has been working for Shelf Drilling Mentor Offshore, British Oil & Gas, SMS Joy Swamp Rig and OES Energy.
KES Separation Drilling mud centrifuge for Nigeria Solids Control
The KES Separation Drilling Mud Centrifuge is a high-performance decanter centrifuge engineered to meet the demanding solids control requirements of Nigeria’s onshore and offshore oil and gas drilling operations. As the final stage in a four-phase solids control system, it removes ultra-fine solids, recovers valuable barite, and maintains drilling fluid properties to support efficient, compliant, and cost-effective drilling. The centrifuge also needs to be adopted to further treatment of the OBM liquid separated by the Vertical cuttings dryer, to cut down the OBM mud weight and return it back to active mud system.
After so many years dedication, KES separation centrifuges have been used for Sterling Oil Exploration & Energy Production Co. Ltd (Sterling global Nigeria), Tulcan Energy jobsite, NewCross Project etc.
KES Separation quality pumps for Oil Drilling Contracts
The client also ordered several screw pumps working as the centrifuge feed pump, mud transfer pump and Vertical cutting dryer flush pumps. Our pump design is engineered for drilling mud transfer, with better anti-wearing and anti-corrosion performance. The pump is designed to work at lower rotation speed with the similar flow rate which can help reduce the wearing of the pump rotors and pump stators which are the main spare parts to cost.
Internation brand Solids Control Equipment can be sourced from KES Separation.
As a solids control player in global market, we sometimes can receive inquiry of used/refurbished Derrick centrifuges, Swaco centrifuges, NOV brandt centrifuge spare parts. And we have been collecting the information in China market and KES Separation can supply high quality USA brand equipment as follows:
- KES Separation can supply high quality Derrick DE1000 FHD Centrifuges (Used/Refurbished).
- KES Separation can supply high quality Derrick Shale shakers (Used/Refurbished).
- KES Separation can supply high quality Swaco 518 Centrifuges, it is fixed speed centrifuge (Used/Refurbished).
- KES Separation can supply high quality Swaco 518HV Centrifuges, it is VFD Centrifuge (Used/Refurbished).
- KES Separation can supply high quality Swaco Mongoose shale shakers (Used/Refurbished).
- KES Separation can supply high quality NOV brandt mission pumps (Used/Refurbished).
- KES Separation can supply high quality brand new Germany Netzsch brand pumps
We got some good resources from China state-owned company which stopped their business in solids control. And we can buy from them and sell to the overseas client who might need it. This reduces resource waste, increases utilization, and is also environmentally friendly for the entire global resource system.
