Success in the oilfield
Leaders in mud rheology
Environmental solutions
Simply put, Blackstone centrifuge solutions can improve your drilling efficiency.
We’re regarded as leaders in the industry for good reasons. Proprietary design and engineering, exceptional equipment standards, and hands-on knowledge and expertise, continues to set Blackstone apart in helping companies get the absolute most out of their drilling. The more efficient we can make your solids control – the faster you can drill, the less hole issues you will encounter, the less down time you will experience, and the less wear you will have on your other equipment on everything from main pumps through to mud motors.
So why Blackstone?
- Blackstone’s track record speaks for itself. We’re always excited to discuss comparisons as Blackstone centrifuges are on many of the most efficient rigs in the industry – on full display when analysing operating days versus downtime, consistent and significant reduction in the number of drilling days, total meterage drilled, ability to control even the most ultra fine solids, and most importantly, rig profitability
- The equipment design behind Blackstone centrifuges is the foundation of our success in helping companies in the oil field.
- Comprehensively engineered with extensive field input, Blackstone equipment consistently provides solutions to challenges many other centrifuges don’t have answers for – or often haven’t even thought about yet
- Ongoing development in cutting edge technology, through expertise of our partners at TSM and TTI, in areas such as intuitive touch screen controls, VFD panels, variable speed control, and the best in the business when it comes to repairs and maintenance.
- Setting the highest standards of manufacturing for the highest quality and most dependable equipment in the industry, readily visible right down to our use of stainless steel fittings
- Attention towards providing equipment and stands that are compact and use the least amount of space
- Exceptional leak prevention providing greater environmental protection
- We know our equipment and that will show in your first discussion with us. More importantly, we’re from the field and know exactly what to listen to regarding our partners’ needs and challenges, so we can help come up with the best centrifuge solutions to make your drilling more efficient and profitable.
- Our partners will be the first to tell you, Blackstone is obsessed with finding solutions to problems. 24/7/365
Countless times, we have successfully taken brine to below 0.5% solids content – from start to finish. We’ve taken brine at 6% solids, and dropped it to 0.5% within 12 hours.
With Blackstone centrifuges, and through proper dewatering techniques, we have examples of immediately increased ROP from levels of 7m/h to 50 m/h.
We’ve assisted with long lateral legs, 2000+m, and been able to maintain a near 6% LGS concentration.
On multiple occasions we’ve taken SBM from 1200+kg/m3 to +/- 1000km/m3 in one pass at 750l/min per machine.
We have decades long relationships utilizing our centrifuge solutions, with proven ongoing results.
