The drilling mud low-speed shear pump is the auxiliary equipment in the drilling fluids system. Sometimes, users operate the low-speed shear pump and jet mud mixer separately, sometimes users operate the shearing mixing pump. The Shearing pump is also known as the shear pump. It is mainly used to process the drilling mud material polymer. It can help much with materials shearing and better compounding.

The low-speed shear pump is used to effectively mix and hydrate material added into the drilling fluid. With large capacity, high lift. and long reliable service life, the shear pump can speed up dilution and hydration of polymers to have high property mud. In the drilling fluid, due to no shear, the polymer will produce a lot of “fish-eye”. These “fish-eye” will damage the formation, then the formation permeability decreases, and the production of oil and gas reduces. Therefore polymers need preliminary shearing, then flow into the drilling fluid system. improving the performance of drilling fluid and fully playing its role. Shear pumps can provide very high shearing efficiency, accelerate polymer dilution and hydration process.
The Shearing pump is designed to reduce the cost of mixing polymers and clays while improving mud properties, it shears the polymers eliminates fish eyes and prevents polymer chaining which can’t pass through the shaker screen. The APJQB series shearing pump is based on centrifugal pump APSB6X5. The flow rate is up to 440-528GPM and 35-45m lift. The difference is the motor power. Overall size is about 1150x1100x1500mm
The shear pump is specially designed with the impeller holding jags to process the drilling mud mixed with clay and polymer.
The Shearing pump consists of impeller, casing, packing, shaft, belt, pulley, motor, base, and so on. The difference with other pump impellers is a more complicated structure. There are axial whirl flow, fluids reserve compartment, pump wheel, pressure cabin, shearing plate.
The axial flow whirl provides a certain quantity of fluids to the pump wheel and reserve cabin, 50% of this part fluids will flow into the reserved cabin, and the other half part flows into the casing. A pressure cabin is a special design to make sure fluids cabin holding drilling mud. The fluids flow is parallel to the shearing plate and introduces high flow velocity
There are many features of the shearing pump as follows. High efficiency, high flow rate, high lead, mechanical sealed. It can help get higher performance and a better shearing effect. Faster hydration and dilution processes, meet the requirements of many different job sites. Saving the cost and time for the user. For bentonite use, it can save cost up to 30%
