Mud Meter
The AquaField™ Mud Meter is a revolutionary, patent-pending solution that brings mud logging into the digital age. By continuously measuring the water, oil, solids, cuttings, and gas fractions in drilling mud, it eliminates the delays and limitations of traditional retort analysis. Its real-time data capabilities empower drilling teams to respond immediately to changes in mud composition—improving both operational safety and efficiency.
Designed for automated, 4-phase measurement, the AquaField™ Mud Meter enhances drilling performance while reducing risk. It minimizes the need for manual sampling, lowering HSE exposure for crews, and optimizes the use of on-site personnel. Compact, lightweight, and easy to install, it integrates seamlessly into both onshore and offshore drilling setups, supporting managed pressure drilling (MPD), real-time mud logging, and advanced automation systems.
With its user-friendly interface, low cost per unit, and the reliability of the AquaField™ brand, this cutting-edge meter is the preferred choice for operators seeking to streamline processes without sacrificing precision. In a highly competitive and dynamic industry, the AquaField™ Mud Meter is your partner in delivering safer, smarter, and more cost-effective drilling operations.
