A drilling fluid conditioning tank and centrifuge combination. The drilling fluid conditioning tank has more than two individual compartments. A centrifuge supply conduit extends length-wise in the tank. The conduit has a plurality of inlets, with at least one inlet being positioned in each of the individual compartments. The centrifuge is connected to the conduit. A pump is provided which is adapted to pump drilling fluids along t he conduit to the centrifuge. A valve is positioned on each inlet for the conduit. By opening and closing selected valves, a selected one of the individual compartments is isolated a nd fluids are pumped by the pump to the centrifuge from only the selected one of the individual compartments.
