Product Description
The mud hopper used in oilfield drilling is a specialized equipment for mixing and managing drilling fluid, also known as mud. It typically consists of a large-diameter hopper and an outlet pipe connected to the mud circulation system.
The primary purpose of a mud hopper is to blend additives, chemicals, and other components with the base drilling fluid to adjust its properties and performance according to specific drilling requirements. It helps control parameters such as viscosity, density, rheological characteristics, and solid content of the mud to ensure effective cooling of the drill bit, hole cleaning, wellbore stability, and efficient removal of drill cuttings.
