Monster Pump was founded in 2006 to provide a solution for moving mud and cuttings from steel-pits to haul-off pits quickly and efficiently. A much more reliable option than trash pumps, Monster Pump is engineered to transport challenging fluids and solids with less time, effort and hassle.
Monster Pump
Typical Application and Costs
It is usually necessary to pump every day until displacement depending on the pit size. Generally this would mean about five days of pumping pit fluid and cuttings prior to mud up. Once mud up occurs, the pump will run about every other day throughout the rest of the well. For example, a 12-day well would have eight days pumping and four standby days for a total of $4,560.
​
Additionally, there would be approximately 100 gallons of diesel consumed at approximately $3 per gallon, totaling $300. Setup and tear down is a total of $750, and average mileage would run an estimated $200. Typically overnight charges would be required for five nights, which would be $375. That brings the total pump charge for a typical well to approximately $6,185. See the price list below for more details.
History
Monster Pump Inc. was established with the goal of providing a better way to move mud and cuttings from steel-pits to haul-off pits in sensitive groundwater areas. These capable pumps can handle solids of up to 3" and have a max pumping ability of 1,000 GPM. Where regular trash pump rentals fail, Monster Pump excels.
Features
Renting a Monster Pump for oil field applications comes with an "on-site" pump operator, eliminating the need to rely on rig hands to run it. It also provides "one call" service for poly pipe and mud pumping, reducing the tool pusher's workload. This service has a reduced risk of weather-related issues because the operator is on location 24/7 and readily available.
Capacity
Monster Pump has 8000’ of 3” poly pipe available for rent for any fluid transportation needs, including water lines. The 200-horsepower diesel engine gives it four times the power of most trash pump rentals currently used in oil field applications, as well as the ability to pump mud up to 1-1⁄2 miles with a 50’ rise.
