he shale shaker separates the cuttings from the drilling fluid by running it through a vibrating screen, allowing the fluid to be pumped back into the well and reused. In addition to saving money, reusing drilling fluid means it doesn’t have to be disposed of, reducing regulatory and compliance costs.
The three main shale shaker components are the hopper, the screen basket and the vibrator. The hopper, also known as the shaker base, serves as a collection pan for screened fluid, also known as underflow. The screen basket holds the fluid-sifting screens securely in place
Shale Shaker & Centrifuge
A shaker, in the context of trenchless technology, is a vibrating sieve. It's the primary device on a drilling rig for removing solids from drilling fluids. The liquid portion of drilling fluid is separated from solids that are too large to pass through the wire mesh of the shaker screen
