Research on wear and tear of the mud pump liners
- The article tells about the research on wear and tear of mud pump liners, namely: main characteristics that distinguish ceramic liner from the other ones used on the units equipped with the hydraulic system for washing out the drilling wells from cuttings, design of ceramic liners, calculation of the wear rate of ceramic liners, and the positive contribution they made on the modern drilling process. Besides, the research is made on the simplicity of the structure of ceramic liners, a short amount of time consumed to assemble and replace the liners, safety of the work, cost-effectiveness, wearing and corrosion durability, and also compliance with other requirements.
