Drilling rig: failure modes and monitoring solutions

A drilling rig is a machine used for drilling into the ground or into rocks when they are extremely rigid or require deep drilling. There are three main drilling techniques: Failure modes in drilling rig components Combustion engine faults This component is responsible for transforming thermal energy into mechanical energy, providing the driving force needed… Continue reading Drilling rig: failure modes and monitoring solutions

Wind turbines: how to increase the reliability of this asset

Wind turbine: learn about its main components and how to monitor this asset According to the National Electricity System Operator (ONS), wind power accounts for 10.9% of the Brazilian electricity matrix and is expected to reach 13.6% by 2025.

Hydrocyclone: learn about the most common faults

Hydrocyclones are equipment used to separate solids from liquids or liquids of different densities. This asset has a cylindrical-conical vessel with a tangential inlet flow at the top, an outlet at the bottom (the apex) through which the denser or larger material is removed, if it is solid – called the underflow. As well as… Continue reading Hydrocyclone: learn about the most common faults
