Solids control effectiveness is measured by cumulative impact on drilling performance, fluid costs, and waste management. The shale shaker, as the first and most important device, offers multiple opportunities for performance improvement — from equipment selection to operational practices and maintenance discipline.
Right-Sizing and Screen Strategy
The foundation of effective solids control is adequate capacity for the circulating rate. An undersized shaker forces operators to either bypass fluid or accept chronic flooding. Aipu helps customers right-size installations through flow rate and cuttings loading analysis. Screen management is where many operations leave performance on the table — using coarser screens where solids loading is highest and transitioning to finer screens downstream maximizes both throughput and separation. Regular screen inspection and timely replacement maintain consistent cut point performance throughout the program. Contact Aipu at info@aipusolidcontrol.com to discuss improving your solids control.
