KES Separation recently arrived in Nigeria to provide on-site commissioning services for clients, successfully putting into operation a full set of ordered solids control equipment after months of production, transportation, and customs clearance.
The cooperation dates back to August 2025, when the client placed an order for multiple solids control units, including a decanter centrifuge, vertical cuttings dryer, screw pumps, screw conveyors, and a high-G dryer. After approximately two months of manufacturing and another two months of international logistics, the equipment arrived in Nigeria and completed customs clearance by the end of January 2026. Once the client finished the necessary on-site preparations, the KES Separation service team promptly mobilized to provide professional technical support and ensure a smooth equipment startup.
The commissioning service spanned two days, kicking off on the afternoon of the first day. However, unexpected rain and the generator malfunction forced a temporary suspension of the operations. Therefore KES Separation technical team returned to the client’s site early the next morning to resume the commissioning. During the process, minor challenges emerged—such as equipment failure which caused by incorrect wiring from generator to control box. Fortunately, KESS chief engineer, with rich on-site experience, quickly identified and resolved the issue immediately, ensuring the workflow remained on track. By the end of the second day, all equipment operated smoothly, achieving full operational readiness as scheduled.
A local solids control engineer with over a decade of industry experience, who was present throughout the commissioning, spoke highly of the equipment, describing it as “perfect and well-constructed.” While acknowledging the equipment’s overall excellence, the engineer also shared valuable suggestions for potential improvements based on local operational needs and environmental conditions. KESS team expressed sincere gratitude for the constructive feedback. “We will carefully analyze these suggestions and continue to upgrade our products, striving to deliver even more tailored and reliable solutions to meet the diverse needs of global clients,” KESS team stated.
This successful commissioning not only strengthens the cooperative bond between KESS and the client but also demonstrates KES Separation’s commitmentand technical strength in the field of solids control equipment.
