Available in several configurations, these innovative closed-loop systems eliminate the use of sumps and maintain drilling fluid at optimal performance, delivering maximum ROP, drastic water, mud and waste reductions and more.

How Does It Work?

The AMC SRU™ works by circulating drilling fluid directly from the drill collar to be processed by the shaker and centrifuge, where drill solids are separated from the mud slurry and discharged via a waste chute. After being processed, the cleaned drilling fluids flow into the tank to be returned to the drill rig. A conveniently positioned mixing system is then used to blend products into drilling fluids.

“The SRU™ provided considerable cost savings as excavation, drainage and rehabilitation were not required, and the unit returned a lot of the additives to drill circulation instead of being lost as sludge.” Dr. Bryan Smith - Consultant Geologist

AMC BOS™A proactive solution for fluid loss and borehole instability.

“In all my time drilling at this site, I have never witnessed a product do what the AMC BOS™ had done to improve drilling and lost circulation conditions.” Eric Castleberry - Drill Supervisor at Resolution

Key Benefits • Reduces rig down time from rod

trips through unstable or fluid loss zones

• Stabilises the borehole and maximises fluid returns, reduces the need for cementing/grouting, casing and/or lost circulation materials

• Saves up to 48 hours lost time cementing/grouting, and associated costs and risks

• Reduces drilling fluid cost

• Reduces water consumption, management and associated costs

• Reduces torque, rod chatter and vibration, and associated rod trips and costs

• Reduces wear and tear, extends life of drill components

• Reduces manual handling, slip and trips hazards and chemical handling

• Reduces environmental impact to local water supply and risk of contamination.

Proactive against fluid losses and borehole instability

Regular injections of AMC BOS FIX™ to the bottom of the drill string and up the annulus continually seals natural fractures and fissures, to stabilise the borehole, reduce down hole losses and occurrence of lost circulation.

Traditionally, LCMs are the first measure used to aid fluid losses. Depending on circumstances, LCM effectiveness may vary, potentially compromising the borehole annulus, causing stuck pipe, and resulting in unwanted rod tripping.

In cases of instability, casing may need to be applied, which requires unwanted rod trips. The AMC BOS™ creates a continuous and flexible casing to assist with loose, unconsolidated, fractured, caving, sloughing, swelling, high friction or washout zones.

Down the borehole, you can’t always predict when or how things will go wrong. AMC’s patent pending* Borehole Optimisation System™ (AMC BOS™) anticipates fluid loss, lost circulation and unstable zones, even in the most difficult conditions – making operations smoother and more predictable.

The AMC BOS™ comprises the AMC BOS UNIT™ an in-hole lubricating and casing while drilling tool, and AMC BOS FIX™ a rapid fill grout. The AMC BOS™ is a proactive solution combating fluid losses and borehole instability, by delivering a measured amount of AMC BOS FIX™ at regular intervals to the bottom of the drill string and up the annulus. The fluid reacts instantly with borehole fluids, permeating and sealing fractures, providing a thin but robust lubristic membrane to the borehole wall.

Unlike reactively using traditional methods, the AMC BOS™ is a preventative measure which can significantly improve diamond drilling productivity, at rig safety, reduce environmental impact and lower overall operational costs.

Drilling blindly may be a choice for drillers, but without treatment, reaming through unstable zones will increase borehole torque, rod trips, increase fluid consumption, risk prematurely worn out bits and reamers, collapse, contamination, stuck drill pipe, risk of injury and reduce ROP.

Cementing/grouting can take up to 48 hours, can be very costly, and introduces increased rod tripping with only a limited success rate of 50%. Consequences of cementing/grouting can far outweigh the process itself, including safety risk, rig downtime and increased costs such as vacuum trucks and consumables. With a proactive approach, the AMC BOS™ is a less risky alternative to variable or ineffective methods for fluid loss or borehole instability.

About AMC BOS FIX™

AMC BOS FIX™ can be injected into high pressure, high temperature, wet or dry environments. The fluid only activates when coming into contact with moisture, ensuring it is placed exactly where it is required and does not contaminate the core sample or the interior of the core barrel (if used correctly).

The unit takes less than 5 minutes to set up or refill, which can be done at any time during the drill shift, without interruption.

Reducing Mud and Water Consumption

In operations where water management presents an operational challenge and has high associated costs, the closed-loop system of the AMC ULW SRU™ allows the recycling of water and fluids, and eliminates the continual need to cart water for drilling operations.

The AMC ULW SRU™ can reduce water consumption by up to 90% and mud chemical consumption by up to 55%. In addition, it reduces associated costs such as surface sumps, additional pumping systems, and transfer and disposal of bulk mud volumes.

Reducing Water and Mud Disposal Costs

The 200mm stainless steel decanter centrifuge can remove solids as small as 4 – 7 microns from drilling fluids, keeping drilling fluids in good rheological condition.

The AMC ULW SRU™ can reduce the volume of residual mud by up to 75%. Solids are condensed and transformed into a semi-dry solids cake, which minimises the costs associated with disposal.

The AMC Ultra Lightweight Solids Removal Unit™ (AMC ULW SRU™) is a highly versatile drilling fluid recycling unit, designed for use in compact spaces or in remote locations. The unit’s closed-loop system decreases the volume of water and mud, reducing operational costs and creating a safer work environment. Its size and shape allows for easy transport via helicopter, light vehicle, manually or in modular sections.

How Does It Work?

AMC ULW SRU™ circulates drilling fluid from the drill collar to the centrifuge to separate drill solids from the mud slurry. The solids are then discharged via the unit’s waste chute. After processing, cleaned drilling fluid flows into a storage tank. The fluid is returned to the mixing tank before being reused.

The AMC ULW SRU™ is very quick and simple to assemble onsite.
