Abstract
Gas laden drilling fluid is subjected to shear and turbulence in a unique degassing vessel having a radial spray mechanism inside the vessel for emitting a continuous radial sheet of fluid spray against the inner surface of the vessel wall. Means is provided for communicating the gas in the vessel area below the radial spray with the gas in the vessel area above the radial spray. A resulting vacuum is created in the upper portion of the vessel, at least partially as a result of the radial spray action therein, and the resulting vacuum may be used in other parts of the degassing assembly for increasing the effectiveness of the degassing process.
