Occidental Air Permit Approved for Mud Plant Located in the Permian

Oxy was approved for an air permit by Texas Commission on Environmental Quality for a new mud plant located in Odessa. A mud plant is used to manipulate (mix, dilute, treat, adjust) various drilling fluids to be used in wells supported by this Supply Base. You can also find expanded drilling waste management (DWM) processing here, typically in the form of centrifuges used to treat used mud that has been back loaded to the supply base.

Liquid Mud Plant is always composed of horizontal mud mixing tanks, vertical mud storage tanks, vertical silo tanks, decanter centrifuge system, mud mixing pump and hopper system, mud shearing system, and some time, the shale shaker systems.

Oxy company’s oil fields in the Permian Basin, beneath Texas and New Mexico, still hold about 2 billion barrels of oil.
