What are the types of water well drilling rigs

 Water well drilling rigs can be categorized into various types according to different classification criteria. The following is an introduction to the common ways of categorization.

Classification according to drilling method

Rotary Drilling Rig: The drill bit is rotated to break the rock and carry the rock chips out of the well through the drilling fluid.
The drill bit rotates to break up the rock, and the drilling fluid carries the rock chips out of the well.
Advantages: High drilling efficiency and adaptability.
Disadvantage: Higher requirements for drilling fluids.

Impact Drilling Rig.

The drill bit impacts the rock through up and down reciprocating motion to break the rock.
Advantages: simple structure, easy to operate.
Disadvantages: Lower drilling efficiency, poor adaptability to the formation.

Composite Drilling Rig: Combined rotary and percussion drilling rigs.


Combining the advantages of rotary and percussion, it can choose different working methods according to different stratum conditions.
Advantages: strong adaptability, high efficiency.
Disadvantages: complex structure, high cost.

Classification according to power source
Diesel-driven drilling rig: using diesel engine as power source, simple structure, strong mobility.
Electric motor-driven drilling rig: using electric motor as the power source, environmentally friendly, but higher requirements for power supply.
Hydraulic-driven drilling rig: using the hydraulic system as power source, flexible operation, high efficiency.

Classification according to drilling depth
Shallow Drilling Rigs: Mainly used for drilling shallow water wells from tens to hundreds of meters.
Deep drilling rigs: Mainly used for drilling deep water wells from several hundred meters to several thousand meters.

Other classifications
Classification by drilling fluid type: can be categorized into water drilling, mud drilling, air drilling and so on.
Classification by drilling method: positive circulation drilling, reverse circulation drilling, etc.

Factors affecting the selection of drilling rigs
Stratigraphic conditions: Different stratigraphic conditions require different drilling rigs.
Drilling depth: The drilling depth determines the power of the drilling rig and the length of the drilling tools.
Water quality: Different water quality requires different drilling fluids and drilling tools.
Construction environment: The constraints of the construction environment will also affect the choice of drilling rig.

How to extend the life of drill pipe

  1. When using a new drill pipe, the drilling rig manufacturer should make sure that the wire fasteners on the front cut-off (protecting the shaft head) of the drill bit are also close to the new one. A ring-buckled rotating head can easily damage the wire fasteners of the new drill pipe, resulting in leaks, snaps, and loosening, and so on. 2. In the use of drill pipe for a drilling, should be first “grinding new buckle”, which consists of, first smeared with silk buckle oil, and then use the drill rig full torque, and then open the buckle, and then smeared with silk buckle oil and then open, and so on for three times, you can avoid the new wear and buckle. 3. As far as possible to maintain the drill pipe under the ground and on the ground in a straight line, so as to avoid part of the side of the wire buckle force and cause unwanted wear and tear, or even jump buckle, pay attention to the rig anchored to avoid the construction of the force to move is very important. 4. The buckle...

What are the Basic Maintenance Methods for Water Well Drilling Rigs

  Cleaning: After every day's operation, clean the mud, oil, and other debris on the rig in time to keep the rig clean. Checking lubrication: regularly check  the lubrication points to ensure that the lubricant is sufficient and the grease is clean. Fasteners check: you can check whether the bolts and nuts of each part are loose and tighten them in time. Hydraulic system checks: you can check whether the hydraulic oil level is normal, whether there is no leakage phenomenon, and whether the hydraulic oil is clean. Lubrication system maintenance: regular replacement of lubricating oil, grease, cleaning oil filter, and oil tank. Hydraulic system maintenance: regular replacement of hydraulic oil, cleaning hydraulic filter. Cooling system maintenance: clean the radiator, and check the coolant level. Transmission system maintenance: check the tightness of the transmission belt, and replace the worn transmission belt. Electrical system maintenance: check whether the line is firm...

Use and maintenance of drill bits

Use and maintenance of drill bits: 1. Choose a suitable drill bit:  Before using a drill bit, it is necessary to select the appropriate type and specification of drill bit based on drilling conditions and needs. 2. Installing the drill bit:  When installing the drill bit, it is necessary to ensure that the connection between the drill bit and the drill pipe is firm, and to correctly install the cutting teeth of the drill bit. 3. Maintain appropriate drilling speed and pressure during the drilling process:  Excessive drilling speed and pressure can lead to premature wear and damage of the drill bit, while too small can affect drilling efficiency. 4. Regular inspection and maintenance:  Regularly check the wear of the drill bit and replace severely worn components in a timely manner. At the same time, it is necessary to regularly clean and lubricate the drill bit to extend its service life. 5. Storage and preservation:  When storing and preserving drill bits, it i...
