Undetected mud gain or loss can escalate into a well control incident within minutes. The RCP Mud Pit Volume Monitoring system delivers continuous, accurate pit volume tracking across up to six pits, with instant total volume calculation, real-time mud gain and loss readback, and configurable audible and visual alarms triggered the moment setpoints are exceeded.
Available as independent or fully integrated multi-pit systems, the rugged construction suits both land rig and offshore drilling environments.
