Land cement pumping operations
Benefits
The Baker Hughes Falcon cementing unit accurately maintains slurry density and consistency over a wide
range of performance requirements.
The self-contained, trailer-mounted Baker Hughes Falcon™ cement mixing and pumping
unit includes an integral precision slurry mixing system that accurately maintains
slurry density and consistency over a wide range of performance requirements. It is
also equipped with the latest Baker Hughes control and monitoring systems for precise
control of job parameters, real-time job data acquisition, and post-job analysis. To
ensure successful completion of a job in the event of a component failure, backup
systems are provided for the hydraulic system, electronic system, and drive train.
