Oil & Water Retort Kit
In Meerut

We are one of the leading Exporter, Manufacturer & suppliers in Meerut of Oil & Water Retort Kit from Delhi, The Retort Analysis is the determination by distillation of the percent by volume of solids, water and oil present in the drilling fluid. This equipment plays an important part in diagnosis of solids problem. High percentage of solids present in the drilling fluid can adversely affect the penetration rate while low percentage contributes to poor filtration control and loss of suspension properties.

Oil and Water Retort Kit is used to determine the quantity of liquids and solids in a drilling fluid. In a retort test, a measured sample of fluid is placed in a cup and heated until the liquid components have been vaporized. The vapors are passed through a condenser and collected in a graduated cylinder or centrifuge tube that has been calibrated to record the volume of the condensed liquids at 20°C. The distillate is read directly as volume percent of the solids sample's original volume. Suspended and dissolved solids are determined by subtracting these from 100 percent of the initial sample. For fresh-water fluids, the relative amount of barite and clay can be estimated. Corrections must be made for salt in the calculation for solids content by volume.

The Oil and Water Retort provides a simple, direct field method for determining the percent by volume of oil and water in samples in drilling mud or in core samples of the formation. The Retort has been found to be especially useful in determining the oil content of emulsion muds.

Oil & Water Retort Kit comprised of a stainless Steel retort assembly connected to the aluminum condenser with a steel pipe. The retort is heated in a thermostatically controlled oven housed in a portable stainless steel carrying case.
