Our Batch Mixers are designed for optimal performance in challenging environments, catering to different operational requirements with various capacities. Whether you need a skid-mounted or trailer-mounted configuration, our units are built to deliver consistent and efficient cement slurry blending.
To address the challenges of offshore operations and manage the equipment footprint effectively, we offer a two-skid configuration option:
Two-Skid Configuration
- Skid 1: Power Pack and Control System
- Houses the Caterpillar or Cummins QSL electronic diesel engine
- Contains the hydraulic power system with Parker Denison pumps and motors
- Includes the main control panel for centralized operation
- Dimensions optimized for offshore lifting and placement
- Skid 2: Mixing and Pumping System
- Features the dual batch tanks (2 x 50 bbl, 2 x 75 bbl, or 2 x 100 bbl options)
- Incorporates the two-level impeller mixers for efficient blending
- Equipped with dual RA56 centrifugal pumps for slurry transfer
- Includes the pneumatic cement feeding system
Advantages for offshore operation:
- Reduced Footprint: By separating the power pack and mixing systems, the overall footprint can be optimized to fit limited deck space.
- Flexible Positioning: The two skids can be positioned separately on the offshore platform, allowing for better space utilization and workflow optimization.
- Easier Transportation: The split configuration facilitates easier lifting and transportation to and from offshore locations.
- Simplified Maintenance: With systems separated, maintenance can be performed on one skid without necessarily affecting the other, potentially reducing downtime.
- Enhanced Safety: The separation of the power pack from the mixing area can contribute to improved operational safety.
