    Abstract: A process for the reuse of oilfield drilling waste with an natural affinity for oil which has had at least a portion of the contaminants removed using a remediation technology. The drilling waste can be further refined to ensure the waste meets a desired particle size distribution and thereafter sent for reuse by mixing the drilling waste with hot bituminous tar and thereafter using the liquids phase in roofing materials. A method of mixing the drilling waste with conventional fillers is also described to create a blended mixture of drilling waste and conventional fillers to create a new hybrid filler which is mixed with hot bituminous tar for use in roofing materials.

    Abstract: Gas-tight decanter centrifuge process for separation of volatile organic compounds from drilling fluid. A method is described for removing low gravity solids from a mixture of recovered oil based drilling fluid and low gravity solids and diluent. A gas-tight decanter centrifuge that is designed and constructed for this purpose in a gas-tight manor so to ensure vapour cannot escape the decanting process, and foreign oxygen cannot enter the process under normal operating conditions.

    Abstract: A transport vessel and method specifically adapted for safely transporting liquid containing unstabilized drill cuttings. Typically drilling waste is stabilized using binding agents like fly-ash, liquids absorbing pellets or sawdust. In many jurisdictions binding agents are required to stabilize the drilling waste prior to transport. A sealed transport vessel is described herein which is specifically designed, sized and positioned over a set of axles so as to provide for safe, non-spilling transport, and particular ease of emptying for unstabilized drill cuttings.

    Abstract: A process for removing free liquids from oil base mud contaminated drill cuttings waste. A process is described wherein a high gravity centripetal separator and low temperature thermal process are cooperatively used to enhance the mechanical and thermal separation methods, resulting in improved efficiency of the hydrocarbon and water removal process. A process is also described wherein the oil base mud contaminated drill cuttings waste is heated to strip volatile constituents and excess water from the oil base mud contaminated drill cuttings to further enhance the mechanical and thermal separation methods resulting in improved efficiency of the hydrocarbon and water removal process. A less expensive process is also described where the oil base mud contaminated drill cuttings waste is heated to strip volatile constituents and excess water from the oil base mud contaminated drill cuttings to further enhance the recoverable liquids phase during mechanical separation. A conventional stripping process for oil base mud is also utilized.

    Abstract: A horizontal decanter centrifuge for enhanced recovery of drilling mud from drilling mud solids. Oilfield decanters will always suffer some drilling mud losses because they can only achieve a certain effectiveness with respect to solids dryness. The embodiment describes a process to mitigate the financial burden of drilling mud losses by adding a less expensive sacrificial fluid to take the place of drilling mud in the solids phase. A process and apparatus for drilling mud displacement is described including flowing the drilling mud into a horizontal decanter centrifuge, wherein the stresses imposed within the decanter act to force a sacrificial fluid to displace the drilling mud. The embodiment also describes a process wherein vapours or mist are prevented from escaping and becoming airborne into the external atmosphere.
