A method is provided of recycling and decontaminating oil-based waste drilling mud and cuttings contaminated with oil-based waste drilling mud. A facility for performing the method is also provided. The method includes removing the coarse solids from the mud, breaking the emulsion, and separating the hydrophobic phase from the water phase and the solid phase. The solids may then be treated by either or both of two approaches. One approach involves vaporizing all residual oil and water from the solids, and burning off the vaporized oil. Another approach involves at least partially vaporizing the residual oil from the solids and recondensing the oil.
La présente invention concerne un procédé de recyclage et de décontamination de boues de forage contenant du pétrole et de déblais de forage contaminés par de la boue de forage contenant du pétrole, ainsi qu'une installation permettant de mettre en uvre ce procédé. Le procédé consiste à retirer les matières solides grossières de la boue, casser l'émulsion, et séparer la phase hydrophobe de la phase aqueuse et de la phase solide. Les matières solides peuvent ensuite être traitées par deux approches indépendantes ou combinées. Une approche consiste à vaporiser tous les résidus de pétrole et d'eau des matières solides et à brûler le pétrole vaporisé. L'autre approche consiste à vaporiser au moins partiellement le pétrole résiduel des matières solides et à le recondenser.
