There are several reasons why oil rigs need to use mud pumps to pump mud:   Lubricate and cool the drill bit: during the drilling process, Tricone Drill Bit needs to rotate and cut the formation continuously, and this process will generate a lot of friction heat. Through the mud, the heat can be taken away, and at the same time, the friction between the drill bit and the formation can be reduced to ensure the normal operation of the drill bit.       Removal of drilling waste chips: In the process of drilling, a large amount of waste chips will be generated by Tricone Rock Bits cutting the formation, which will adversely affect the drilling work if they are not removed in time. Mud is injected into the wellhead through the mud pump and the waste chips are taken away through the mud pipe to keep the borehole clean and ensure the drilling goes smoothly.     Controlling Well Pressure and Stabilizing the Well Wall: Drilling fluids (i.e. mud) can also be used to control well pressure downhole and stabilize the well wall. By adjusting the density and fluidity of the mud, the bottomhole pressure can be controlled to prevent blowouts and well collapses. At the same time, the mud can form a thin film on the well wall, increasing the stability of the well wall and preventing well caving and water surges in the formation.   Provide logging information: mud carries information about drill cuttings and formation samples as well as other substances, and by analyzing the composition and property changes in mud, information about formation composition, oil and gas-bearing layers and groundwater can be obtained, which can provide reference for subsequent exploration and development.   Therefore, the mud pump is one of the key equipment in oil drilling. It not only needs to have sufficient displacement and pressure, but also needs to be stable and reliable to ensure the smooth progress of the drilling process and the safety of the staff. As a well-known mud pump manufacturer, Elephant Machinery's products have been widely used in the oil drilling industry and have won a good reputation.
