Solids Control Services

Solids Control Services (SCS) supplies Zone 1 decanter centrifuge-based systems and associated contracting services that are suitable for a wide range of solids control and separation applications.

Strict environmental legislation, and economic common sense, means that employing efficient and reliable waste reduction methods is more important than ever. SCS systems are ideal for the treatment of waste streams that are produced from drilling operations or industrial processes. These high-quality, Zone 1, modular systems render the constituents of these waste streams suitable for reuse, thereby reducing environmental impact and cutting waste disposal costs.

Decanter centrifuges for drilling waste management

SCS offers equipment and services for drilling waste management on a contract or rental basis.

SCS’s decanter-centrifuge is fully hydraulic and features a unique patented dual-scroll, which enables longer retention time, more efficient liquid recovery and drier solids.

SCS decanter centrifuge-based systems are used for waste processing in the oil and gas industry.

SCS also offers equipment that is designed for industrial sludge and effluent waste treatment.

SCS serves a wide variety of blue-chip customers around the world.

The SCS decanter-centrifuge has proven over two decades to be a robust, reliable and highly effective method for extracting drill cuttings and extending the useful life of a wide range of drilling fluids.

Total containment system for drilling waste management

SCS’s total containment system is available to buy or rent. This high capacity (70t/hr) system has a small footprint and low operational manning requirements. It is extremely durable and easy to service and maintain. Its proven reliability makes it an ideal choice for drilling waste management during oil and gas drilling projects.
