Active mud tank

View as Markdown

Skid-mounted active mud pit: open-top steel tank on runners with external stiffeners, compartment bulkheads with top-operated equalising valves, translucent mud surface at level, grating top with ISO 14122 perimeter handrail and caged ladder. One top-entry agitator per compartment (right-angle helical-bevel gearbox and motor on bridge beams, shaft and canted-blade impellers turning when running, second impeller in tall tanks) seen through a guarded hatch opening. Mud-gun header with valved drop pipes and swivel nozzles, suction nozzle with suction bell, return and equalising nozzles, clean-out doors.

Installation

$npx -y https://decktwin.com/cli/deck-twin-0.2.2.tgz add mud-tank

Copies drilling/mud-tank.tsx and the shared lib/ into src/components/deck-twin/. Needs three, @react-three/fiber and @react-three/drei. See installation for the manual route.

Usage

import { Canvas } from '@react-three/fiber'
import { OrbitControls } from '@react-three/drei'
import { Stage } from './components/deck-twin/lib/stage'
import { MudTank } from './components/deck-twin/drilling/mud-tank'

export default function Scene() {
  return (
    <Canvas shadows camera={{ position: [8, 5, 9], fov: 35 }}>
      <Stage>
        <MudTank />
      </Stage>
      <OrbitControls makeDefault />
    </Canvas>
  )
}

P&ID

An open-topped rectangular tank divided into compartments, each with an agitator (motor M on a shaft with impeller blades) and the mud level dashed; suction to the mud pumps and returns from the shakers.

tag TISA LTISA LIISO 10628-2 / PIP PIC001 (open tank with agitators) / API RP 13C mud system

Open top plus agitators = mud pit. A closed process vessel is drawn as a capsule. Pit volume totaliser (PVT) level transmitters sit on each compartment. ISA codes here: LT = pit volume.

For agents

Machine-readable entry with props, ranges, defaults and ports:

$npx -y https://decktwin.com/cli/deck-twin-0.2.2.tgz info mud-tank

Or fetch /r/mud-tank.json, or copy a ready-made instruction:

Add the Deck Twin "Active mud tank" component to this project. Run `npx -y https://decktwin.com/cli/deck-twin-0.2.2.tgz add mud-tank` (it copies the file and the shared lib into src/components/deck-twin/), then `npx -y https://decktwin.com/cli/deck-twin-0.2.2.tgz info mud-tank` for its props, ranges and ports. Render <MudTank /> inside a React Three Fiber <Canvas shadows>, wrapped in <Stage> from src/components/deck-twin/lib/stage. Set props from my data (metres, NPS in inches, ASME class) and leave the rest at defaults. Install three, @react-three/fiber, @react-three/drei and @types/three if they're missing.
