Well Service Mud Pumps

We design and manufacture robust, functional, reliable high pressure pumping equipment for mud injection applications around the world. Every Calder Waste Injection unit incorporates the proven inherent attributes of quality and reliability whilst matching individual installation requirements. The well service mud pumps are designed to operate over a wide range of flows and pressures for the injection of seawater and slurries consisting of drill cuttings, drilling muds and sand into subsea strata as demanded by the offshore drilling industry worldwide.

Well Service Mud Pumping Models

For mud pumping applications we generally select the 562 or 750 triplex reciprocating piston pumps.

Mud 562

Maximum input power: 562 kW (750 HP) continuous
Flow: 375 lpm (99 gpm) to 2120 lpm (560 gpm)
Pressure: 135 bar (1,952 psi) to 345 bar (5,000 psi)

Mud 750

Maximum input power: 750 kW (1,000 HP) continuous
Flow: 375 lpm (99 gpm) to 2120 lpm (560 gpm)
Pressure: 198 bar (2,874 psi) to 448 bar (6,500 psi)

We have the experience and skills to engineer a cost-effective solution to your mud pump requirements in a range of operating environments utilising the best engineering practices, and designing the system to be either diesel, electric or hydraulically powered.
