SOME FAET EQUIPMENTS

TUCANO Truck Unit Overview

Applications :

▪ Land cement pumping operations.

Benefits :

▪ Minimizes nonproductive time with reliable twin-pump design.
▪ Minimizes slurry consistency risks by precisely controlling its density.

he self-contained, chassis mounted Tucano cement mixing and pumping unit includes an integral de-aerating mixing

system that accurately maintains slurry density and consistency over a wide range of performance requirements. This twin-pump unit is equipped with latest control and monitoring systems for precise control of job parameters, real-time job data acquisition, and post-job analysis. To ensure successful completion of a job in the event of a component failure, backup systems are provided for the hydraulic system,electronic system and drivet rain.

TUCANO Features

The FAET Services Tucano Cementing Unit is a dual cement pumping unit mounted on a Kenworth 6×6 truck chassis. This unit has been designed with safety, reliability, and accurate job completion in mind. Redundant critical components, such as the hydraulic pumps, mix water pumps and triplex pumps, with independent drive systems ensure successful completion of the job by providing back-up. Backup manual mixing controls are also provided.

The Tucano unit is rated at 650 total HHP, and is equipped with two 446 BHP @ 1800 RPM Cummins QSM-ll in-line six cylinder diesel engines driving BJ Pacemaker triplex plunger pumps (PMP) through Allison HT-750-DRD power shift automatic transmissions. The unit will develop working pressures up to 15,000 psi for standard service. Actual performance is dependent on fluid end and plunger size selection.

The Tucano utilizes an integral Lightning Averaging recirculating Mixing system (LAM). The system provides a dust free environment, minimizes air entrainment, and delivers a homogeneous slurry. An integrated deareator removes transport air from the slurry before it enters the mixing tub The unit is equipped with a BJ Services MCM-2000 to control, monitor and record job parameters for on line and post job analysis. The system provides precise density control and slurry consistency over a wide range of slurry weights and is capable of mixing to within +/- .1 PPG. A mass flowmeter is used to monitor both slurry density and downhole rate. The Tucano offers a wide range of mixing rates which are dependent on the slurry density. Slurry rates have been achieved as high as 12 BPM and densities up to 22 PPG

RAM Skid Unit Overview

Applications :

▪ Land and offshore cement pumping

Benefits :

▪ Automatic Density Control System is available as an option. This system is a state of the art system that will constantly maintain the slurry density being pumped downhole.

A choice of downhole densimeters is also available as an option.

A DBIV electronic densimeter is available and it measures slurry density as it enters the Pacemaker pump. A nuclear densimeter is available and it mounts on the discharge of the Pacemaker pump. The BJ 3305 Mini Monitor will continuously monitor, display, and record the density using either densimeter (or the mixing densimeter, if downhole densimeter is not supplied).

RAM General description

The Services Model SCP-40752/RAM (Recirculating Averaging Mixer) is an electric powered skid mounted cement mixing and pumping unit utilizing the patented integral Recirculating Averaging Mixer (RAM) equipped with a BJ Services Mini Monitor (3305) that monitors and records pertinent job parameters for on-line and post job analysis. The main skid can be divided into five (5) separate sections to simplify installation on offshore drilling equipment. There is a separate skid for the mixing water pumps and another skid for the hydraulic power unit.
The unit is rated at 1092 HHP and is equipped with two 900 HP series wound electric traction motors driving BJ Pacemaker triplex plunger pumps through Fuller AT-1202 2 speed twin countershaft transmissions. The unit is capable of working pressures up to 15,000 PSI. Actual performance is dependent on fluid end and plunger size selection.
The RAM is a mixing system that provides density control and slurry consistency over a wide range of slurry weights and capable of mixing to within :to. 1 PPG. This system allows the option of continuous or batch mixing processes. The cement slurry is initially mixed in the mixing module, then passes into the 4 1/2 BBL primary tub for additional mixing. At this point, it flows over a weir into the 20 1/2 BBL secondary tub, where it is mixed further by the agitator, and continuously recirculated until the desired density is achieved. The system provides a dust free environment, minimizes air entrainment, and delivers a homogeneous slurry. A Bl electronic load cell DBIV densimeter is used to monitor the mixing density with an optional DBIV or radioactive densimeter for monitoring and registering the downhole density. The RAM offers a wide range of mixing rates which are dependent on the slurry density. Slurry rates have been achieved as high as 12 BPM and densities up to 22 PPG.
