A system (300) includes a drilling mud cooling apparatus (340) that is adapted to receive a flow of a mixture of drilling materials (390h) from a drilled wellbore (301) during a drilling operation, and to cool the mixture (390h) from a first temperature to a second temperature, wherein the cooled mixture of drilling materials (390c) includes cooled drilling mud (310c) and drill cuttings (307). The disclosed system (300) further includes a shale shaker apparatus (306) that is adapted to receive a flow of the cooled mixture of drilling materials (390c) from the drilling mud cooling apparatus (340) and to separate at least a portion of the drill cuttings (307) from the cooled drilling mud (310c). |
