Representative batch mixer image; equipment specifications are project dependent.How Batch Mixer Unit works
A batch mixer blends dry material, liquid and additives to prepare a controlled fluid before pumping. Tank capacity, agitation, circulation and transfer arrangement are selected against the desired batch volume and mixing cycle. Layout is developed to give operators safe access to filling, sampling and maintenance points.
Batch mixing cycle and delivery to the pumps
Batch mixer sizing starts with the slurry recipe, target density, total batch volume, mixing time and pumping schedule. Agitation and recirculation help maintain a uniform blend before discharge to the cementing unit. Tank layout, dry and liquid additive interfaces, density measurement and cleaning or drain access are selected for the service. Share the job schedule and material handling plan so the mixing and transfer cycle can match the required pump rate.
Developed for the operating duty
Typical applications

- Available power, footprint and transport limits
What the package can include
- Mixing tanks and agitators; 2 × 50 bbl or 2 × 65 bbl concepts can be evaluated
- Centrifugal circulation and transfer pumps
- Engine or hydraulic power, piping and operator controls
Final sizes, material grades, pressure classes, makes, testing and documentation are specified in the approved technical offer. We coordinate applicable design, fabrication, inspection and quality records against the project requirements.
Can you offer a 2 × 65 bbl batch mixer?
Yes, this configuration can be evaluated; tank dimensions, drive sizes and pumping arrangement are confirmed in the project offer.
Batch mixer units for cement slurry preparation
A cementing batch mixer prepares a defined slurry volume before it is transferred to the pressure-pumping equipment. The package combines mixing tanks, agitation, recirculation and transfer interfaces around the selected recipe and job schedule. Tank volume alone does not determine performance: solids addition, mixing energy, density control, cleaning time and transfer capacity must suit the required batch cycle.
Skid-mounted and mobile batch mixer options
A skid-mounted batch mixer suits a fixed installation or an integrated equipment spread, while a mobile arrangement is reviewed against transport dimensions, weight distribution and site access. Single or multiple tank arrangements are evaluated around batch size and continuity of operation. Send the required usable tank volume, slurry density range, mixing time, discharge rate, power supply and operating location. MechOilfield confirms the tank, pump, drive and control scope in the technical offer.
