Patent ID: 7465426

Claim:
A system for degassing muds and for analysing the gases contained in the muds, the system comprising: a tank comprising a first inlet and a first outlet for the mud; feed means of the mud, connected to the first inlet of the tank; means for extracting the gases from the mud contained in the tank; means for injecting a carrier gas, connected to a second inlet of the tank; means for physico-chemical analysis of the extracted gases, connected to a second outlet of the tank, designed for the carrier gas and the extracted gases; synchronization means of flow rate regulating means; carrier gas injection means; and physico-chemical analaysis means, wherein the extraction means comprise an ultrasonic electroacoustic transducer, and the feed means for feeding mud to the tank comprise volume and the flow rate regulating means enabling a preset constant volume of mud to be guaranteed in the tank and enabling the flow rate to be adjusted to a preset constant value.
