Why water well drilling rigs use lubricants

The main purpose of using lubricating fluid in water well drilling rigs is to prolong the service life of drilling tools, improve drilling efficiency, and ensure the smooth running of drilling operations. Specifically, the role of lubricating fluid is as follows:

1. Reduce friction and wear
Friction between drilling tools and well wall: lubricant forms a lubricating film between drilling tools and well wall, which reduces the friction between them, thus reducing the wear of drilling tools.
Friction of internal parts of drilling tools: The lubricant can lubricate the rotating parts inside the drilling tools, which can reduce the wear and prolong the service life.
2. Cooling drilling tools
During the drilling process, the friction between the drill bit and the ground rock will generate a lot of heat, and the lubricant can take away this heat to prevent the drill tool from being overheated and damaged.
3. Carrying rock chips
The lubricant can carry the rock chips generated during the drilling process out of the wellhead, preventing the rock chips from accumulating at the bottom of the well and affecting the drilling.
4. Stabilizing the well wall
Some lubricating fluids have the function of sealing cracks in the well wall, which can prevent the wall from collapsing and ensure the safety of drilling.
5. Protecting the environment
Some lubricating fluids are environmentally friendly, which can reduce the pollution of the environment.
6. Other functions

Increase the density of drilling fluid: Some lubricants can increase the density of drilling fluid to balance the formation pressure and prevent blowout.

Adjusting the viscosity of drilling fluids: Lubricants can adjust the viscosity of drilling fluids to suit different formation conditions.

Lubricating fluid plays a vital role in the water well drilling process.

Choosing the right lubricating fluid and using it reasonably can effectively improve drilling efficiency, reduce costs, and ensure the safety of drilling operations.

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...
