`
`The CLEANCUTsystem is the
`new answer to offshore drilling’s
`growing environmental challenge
`
`ឣ A P P L I C A T I O N S
`Offshore and onshore projects where
`large amounts of drill solids must be
`handled and stored prior to shipment.
`
`ឣ P R O B L E M S
`Under increasingly stringent regu -
`lations dictating zero or near-zero
`discharge of drill solids, and with
`increased concerns of personnel
`safety, operators have had to rethink
`the way in which cuttings contami-
`nated with oil- and synthetic-base
`drilling fluids are handled.
`
`ឣ S O L U T I O N S
`The CLEANCUT* process provides a
`complete field-proven method for con-
`taining, handling, temporarily storing
`and transporting drill cuttings within
`a totally enclosed and protected envi-
`ronment. Our experienced engineers
`and technical personnel ensure that
`you get the exact system you need.
`
`ឣ E C O N O M I C S
`The CLEANCUT system can handle
`cuttings generated at high ROP, reduc-
`ing and even eliminating downtime
`caused by overloaded processing
`equipment. The flexible configuration
`can be engineered to fit rig layouts
`with small equipment footprints.
`
`ឣ E N V I R O N M E N T A L
`The totally enclosed system design
`prevents exposure of personnel
`and the environment to contam -
`inated wastes, even in extreme
`arctic and tropical conditions.
`
`In addition to deeper water depths,
`complex logistics and hostile envi -
`ronments, offshore operators face
`another challenge — zero, or near-
`zero, discharge of drill solids. With
`increasing environmental regulations,
`operators have had to rethink the
`way in which cuttings contaminated
`with oil- and synthetic-base drilling
`fluids are handled.
`
`New thinking solves
`an old problem
`It’s not that other companies haven’t
`tried to remediate the cuttings dis-
`posal situation; they have. Skip-and-
`ship, slurrification and re-injection
`are just some of the methods devised
`for coping with this situation.
`
`In contrast, the CLEANCUT process
`is the comprehensive, economical
`solution that is borne of three decades
`of proven M-I SWACO* materials
`handling and worldwide waste-
`management expertise. The result
`is a complete field-proven method
`for containing, handling and trans-
`porting drill cuttings. By looking at
`the problem of cuttings disposal from
`the operator’s perspective, we have
`developed a totally enclosed system
`for pumping cuttings from shaker to
`storage, storage to boat and then from
`boat to a receiving station onshore
`prior to processing.
`The increase in safety and reduc-
`tion of environmental exposure is
`obvious to even the casual observer.

`
`ISO-PUMP units
`Drill cuttings are pumped from the CCB
`unit to the ISO-PUMP* storage tanks, each
`with a capacity of 95 bbl/ 530 ft3. Each
`ISO-PUMP unit stands on a weighframe
`to indicate load status. Special diverter
`valves are used to select the destination
`of the cuttings.

`
`Features and Benefits
`Safety
`• Crane lifts are minimized, improving offshore safety
`• Conveying is fully enclosed and automated, with
` minimum involvement of personnel
`
`Ease of Use
`• Flexible installation to suit rig layout with small
`equipment footprints
`• The system can transfer raw cuttings at high rates
`• Cuttings are pumped to the supply boat through
`a quick-connect flexible hose
`• The ISO-PUMP unit is certified by DNV for shipping
`worldwide as a standard container
`
`Reliability
`• Dense phase conveying technology, now proven in
`oilfield service, has been proven in three decades
`of tough service in a range of industries
`• All equipment is built and certified to DNV standards
`
`Environmental Protection
`• Totally enclosed system
`• No addition to waste stream
`• Can encompass the entire cuttings supply chain
`• The first total solution from shaker to process plant
`
`The CCB unit is the prime mover of
` cuttings, whether to ISO-PUMP units
`or directly to cuttings boxes, dryers,
`Waste Injection (WI) installations or
`other destinations.
`
`Drill cuttings are pumped from the
`CCB unit to ISO-PUMP storage tanks.
`Each ISO-PUMP unit stands on a
`weighframe to indicate load status.
`
`An excellent system for temporary
` storage of entire sections of cuttings
`or for feeding a distant cuttings dryer.
`
`ISO-PUMP units on the rig discharge
`directly to vertical or horizontal
`ISO-PUMP units on the deck of the
`supply vessel through a flexible hose.
`
`Arctic Climate Protection
`• Fully enclosed and heated for independent and on-boat operations and for personnel safety
`• Enclosed process prevents environmental exposure in sensitive areas
`
`D
`
`Skip-Loading Station
`Cuttings boxes can be filled directly by the
`cuttings blower or by cuttings discharged
`from the ISO-PUMP units.
`
`E
`
`Cuttings Injection Unit
`A WI installation can be fed directly by the
`CCB unit. ISO-PUMP units serve as buffer stor-
`age for cuttings production above the injection
`rate and enable maintenance timeouts.
`
`F
`
`Transfer Hose
`A flexible hose is used for bulk transfer of
`drill cuttings from the rig ISO-PUMP units to
`identical ISO-PUMP units mounted on the
`supply vessel.
`
`G
`
`ISO-PUMP units on Supply Vessel
`ISO-PUMP units are mounted vertically or hori-
`zontally on the supply vessel deck using a
`dedicated frame system. The supply vessel
`can be used to transport the cuttings to shore
`for disposal, or for offshore interfield transfer.
`The supply vessel can sail to a WI facility off-
`shore, where a flexible hose is used to pneu-
`matically convey the cuttings up to identical
`ISO-PUMP units on deck, prior to slurrification
`in the WI unit. Alternatively, the vessel returns
`to harbor and the cuttings are discharged in
`bulk through a hose into the shore reception
`facility, or lifted onto a truck and transported
`by road to a treatment facility.
`
`How it works
`The CLEANCUT system uses two main
`pieces of equipment:
`
`• The CLEANCUT Cuttings Blower (CCB*)
`conveys cuttings from the shakers
`into the system
`• The ISO-PUMP unit is a combination
`storage vessel and conveying device
`built within standard, 20-ft (6.1-m) ISO
`container dimensions. Because each
`pump is an independent conveying
`unit, a high degree of backup is inte-
`gral to any multiple-unit installation.
`• The ISO-PUMP component can also be
`transported fully laden with cuttings
`by road or rail to a discharge location
`
`The CLEANCUT blower is the prime mover
`of cuttings, whether to ISO-PUMP units or
`directly to cuttings boxes, dryers, WI instal-
`lations or other destinations. Cuttings feed
`into the CCB unit on a batch basis, controlled
`by timer or hopper-level probe. In operation,
`
`the unit is filled, sealed and pressurized;
`the outlet is opened, and positive air
` pressure conveys the material to its
`destination. The cycle is repeated as
` frequently as required to match the
`rate of cuttings production.
`When introduced into the cuttings-
`handling system, ISO-PUMP units provide
`buffering for skip loading, WI, drilling
`operations with controlled process rates,
`equipment downtimes or logistics issues
`related to cuttings disposal. Each ISO-PUMP
`unit can discharge its contents back into
`any of the processes from which it receives
`the cuttings.
`Bulk transfer is the optimal solution for
`taking cuttings safely and reliably from
`shaker ditch to shore for recycling or dis-
`posal. ISO-PUMP units on the rig discharge
`directly to ISO-PUMP units on the supply
`vessel through a flexible hose. On return
`to harbor, the cuttings are discharged from
`the boat ISO-PUMP units to shore reception,
`which may be a thermal desorption plant or
`other recycling facility, or to land transport.
