Why risk breathing in dangerous oil mist, vapor and gas when you can avoid it?

SHAKER ROOM
We had to wait more than 40 years for a revolution in the shaker room.
MudCube is a totally closed system which keeps the vapor and mist confined. A brand new working environment.
Occupational Exposure Limit (OEL) for Oil Mist is set to 0.6 mg/cm³ for 12 hours exposure by the Norwegian Regulatory Authorities. MudCube will significantly reduce exposure to oil mist emitted from the drilling fluid. Measurements show 0.4mg/m³ from MudCube, while conventional shakers have been measured at 2.1 mg/m3.
0.4 mg/m3
LOw NOISE!
Is it necessary to create hazardous noise and vibration, when all you really want to do is treat drilling fluid?

95 dBThe maximum limit for personnel working in a noise exposed environment has been set by the Norwegian regulatory authorities at 83 dB over a 12 hour period. Noise from MudCube will be well below this limit with 73 dB, while shakers operate at levels up to 95 dB.
73 dB
SHAKER ROOM
Ever been in a shaker room? Then you know that shakers and ventilation systems are not exactly quiet.
Talk and treat. In the shaker room.
NO VIBRATION!
The shaker room is designed to handle vibration, day after day. What about the people working there?
Shaking creates vibrations. It is the nature of shaking. The separation process is driven by harmless vacuuming, not vibrations.

Norwegian regulatory authorities
Low frequency vibration is a health risk when personnel are exposed to it over a long time period. Personnel in process- and drilling- areas should not be exposed to levels higher than 1G over a 12-hour-period. The MudCube, unlike traditional shale shakers, is not based upon high G-force vibrations to be able to separate solids and drilling fluid.

GETCONTROL!
Lack of control creates an unnecessary full-time job. Would it not be great to have it all in one system?
Remote monitoring: Be in full control – wherever you are!
Are you in full control of the drilling fluid? Frankly speaking, would you drive your car with closed eyes?

MudCube will reduce manhours by 30% compared to a conventional shale shaker system.
Get remote control:
- Visual control of drilling fluid and solids via internal camera- Real time monitoring of mud fluid parameters through instrumentation- Secondary filter with automatic alarm in case of damaged filterbelt (screen)- Remote monitoring of complete system through a central control panel - Improved well control for kick detection and Managed Pressure Drilling - Prepared for Integrated Operations

LESSwEIGHT!
Wouldn’t it be great to reduce the amount of dummy steel and manual handling for a change?
Why use more space and steel than necessary? Revolutionary new design, smaller footprint, less weight, – and only one handbook.
SHAKER ROOM
A MudCube filter belt is 97 % lighter than the screens of a triple deck shaker. MudCube weighs 50 % less overall compared to a triple deck shaker. The lightweight modular design means that a MudCube can easily be hand-carried through standard doors and installed without specialized tools or welding.

How many times do you pay for your drilling fluid?
The longer and deeper the wells are, the more you earn. Save by reducing your losses.
Improve your drilling fluid quality through more effective filtration and reduce cost for waste transportation and treatment.
Reduce your cost:Mud losses reduced by up to 25% •ReducetheneedfornewdrillingfluidWaste reduction of 25% •ReducedwastetransportationandtreatmentDilution reduction of 20% •Optimizemudqualityformaximumsafetyanddrillingperformance

The MudCube is a revolution in concept and design of mud treatment systems.
This technology dramatically improves the working environment and introduces significant cost savings. It is an enclosed system, built for improved safety and the future of Managed Pressure Drilling and Remote Operations. Made for all applications, both offshore and onshore, new builds and upgrades.
