Recently, a batch of high-performance vertical slurry pumps manufactured by Xi’an KOSUN was packaged and shipped to an oil and gas exploration site in Turkmenistan. The equipment is designed for the efficient transportation and circulation of drilling fluid within the solids control system during drilling operations.

Vertical Slurry Pumps — Specialized Equipment for Drilling Operations

Vertical slurry pumps are primarily used in drilling fluid systems at drilling sites to transfer solid-liquid mixtures containing drilling cuttings and high-viscosity drilling mud. They provide continuous and stable fluid delivery to shale shakers, desanders, desilters, and screw centrifuges.
These pumps are characterized by high wear resistance, strong impurity-handling capability, and reliable operation. Unlike traditional horizontal pumps, vertical pumps operate directly submerged in the fluid, enabling them to handle highly concentrated and strongly abrasive slurries in confined spaces and harsh drilling-site environments.

Application Areas of Vertical Slurry Pumps

Vertical slurry pumps are integrated into the drilling fluid circulation system and perform the following functions:
* Drilling fluid transfer: Transporting drilling mud from tanks to shale shakers, desanders, and desilters for solid-liquid separation.
* Drilling fluid recovery: The purified drilling fluid is returned to the drilling system, reducing fluid loss and enhancing environmental safety.
* High adaptability: Suitable for oil drilling, coal mining, shale gas operations, and other demanding applications.

Erving the Global Market — Contributing to Clean and Efficient Energy Development

As one of China’s leading suppliers of drilling solids control equipment, Xi’an KOSUN has long focused on innovation in solid-liquid separation and slurry transportation technologies. Its product range includes shale shakers, desanders, desilters, vacuum degassers, horizontal centrifuges, slurry pumps, agitators, and mud mixing devices. These solutions are widely used in oil and gas, shale gas, geothermal energy, mining, tunneling, and environmental protection projects.

Today, KOSUN products are exported to more than 60 countries and regions, with particularly strong demand in Belt and Road markets such as Central Asia, the Middle East, Africa, and South America, where they have earned an excellent reputation and a solid market presence. The successful delivery of this batch of vertical slurry pumps to Turkmenistan not only provides reliable technical support for the drilling fluid control project but also demonstrates KOSUN’s technological strength and international service capability.
