FSI's Vacuum Degasser, Gas Buster, Atmospheric Degasser

FSI Vacuum degasser

     Our vacuum degasser operates on a “thin strata” principle. The drill mud enters the tank and forces it to flow and distributed to a layer of internal baffle plates engineered to allow the liquid inside the vacuum degasser to flow as thin film and is exposed to the vacuum within the vessel. This layer of mud allows the gas to escape or break out of the mud . The vacuum pump releases the gas and discharge it to the disposal line. Mud exits the vessel under the action of the venturi and is returned to the mud system.


     FSI vacuum degasser operates in three functions – mud circulation, vacuum creation and gas removal. The venturi nozzle at the discharge piping creates vacuum within the vessel and circulates mud by drawing entrained bubbles in the mud into the the vessel.  The vacuum pump runs continuously removing gas from the vessel discharging it to the rig’s flare or environmental control system.


    FSI Vacuum degasser is a compact , skid-mounted and  self-contained unit designed to separate and vent trip gas and heavily gas cut mud. Its series of baffles are made of corrugated fiberglass infused with epoxy for long life with access plate  for easy  maintenance of the vacuum degasser.
