Trailer mounted shale shaker equipment configurations provide maximum mobility for drilling operations that move frequently between locations, such as workover rigs, mobile drilling units, and multi-well pad drilling programs. Aipu Solids Control offers trailer mounted options for its Hunter series shale shakers, combining over 15 years of manufacturing experience with the practical mobility solutions that fast-moving drilling operations demand.
The trailer mounted configuration integrates the shale shaker and its supporting systems onto a road-legal trailer platform that can be towed by standard rig support vehicles. This integration eliminates the need for separate transport equipment for each rig move, reducing the logistics burden and mobilization time. The trailer is designed and certified for highway transport in the operating region, with lighting, braking, and roadworthiness systems that comply with local requirements. The shaker and ancillary equipment are secured for transport on the trailer, with tie-down points engineered for the vibration and shock loads of road transport. Quick-disconnect electrical and piping connections enable rapid transition between transport and operating modes.
The shaker installation on the trailer is engineered for both transport durability and operational performance. The mounting system isolates the shaker’s 6.0G to 7.5G operating vibration from the trailer structure during operation while providing secure attachment during transport. Premium vibrating motors from Ital-Vibras, Martin, and Oli are protected by the trailer mounting arrangement, which provides a stable base that maintains motor alignment through repeated transport cycles. Walkways, handrails, and access ladders are integrated into the trailer design, providing safe access for operation and maintenance. Leveling jacks or stabilizers allow the trailer to be set up on uneven ground, ensuring that the shaker operates on a level base for proper fluid distribution and cuttings conveyance.
Operational flexibility is enhanced by the self-contained nature of trailer mounted shakers. The trailer typically includes integrated tankage for a small buffer volume of drilling fluid, reducing the immediate dependency on the rig’s tank system during startup. Electrical generation capability can be included for operations where the rig power system is not immediately available, enabling the shaker to begin operating as soon as the trailer is positioned and leveled. Quick-change screens, adjustable deck angles from minus 1 degree to plus 5 degrees, and comprehensive documentation support efficient operation. Manufactured in Aipu’s 50,000 square meter Xi’an facility under API Q1 certified quality management, trailer mounted shaker systems provide the ultimate in drilling solids control mobility. Equipment operating in more than 30 countries validates the trailer mounted approach for the most mobile drilling operations worldwide.
