Mud Temperature Control Systems by OSSO are based on a simple robust design which requires little maintenance.

These modular mud cooling systems are skid-mounted. They can be connected and made operational in less than 24 hours.

The system incorporates one or two plate heat exchangers (PHE) designed in accordance with ASME codes and standards. It has a complete piping assembly with gauges and manually operated butterfly valves for drilling fluids and cooling water flow control. The heat exchangers can be operated in parallel or as individual units depending on duties required.

  • Modular mud cooling system
  • No moving parts, requiring minimal maintenance
  • Dual or single plate heat exchanger options
  • Skid mounted for simple connection
  • Can be ready for operation in less than 24 hours
  • Ideal for offshore and remote locations
