Underground core drilling rig

The Boyles C5/C5C surface core drilling rig is compact, yet powerful. Its compact design makes it easy to position and transport, even by helicopter. During helicopter transport, the rig is broken down into six main modules and each module is equipped with lifting points to ensure safe and effective transport. Boyles. . The Christensen range of surface core drilling rigs has, over many years, established itself a reputation for reliability and ease of use.. . For underground core drilling exploration tasks, Epiroc offers the well-established and trusted Diamec range of machines. Diamec rigs are available in a wide variety of forms. The. [pdf]

Drilling rig pipe handling

For the land rig market, we provide horizontal and vertical pipe handling with our series of PipeCat catwalk machines and the stand transfer vehicle (STV). Catwalk machines are designed to deliver tubulars to the drill floor, and the STV racks tubulars between the fingerboard area and well center. Both tools are. . Parallel-column pipe-racking systems represent the next generation of automated pipe-racking systems. These machines provide the most flexible pipe racking configurations and capacities in the industry and can be integrated into new builds or. . Our family of pipe-handling systems consists of several options, varying from simple belt conveyors to semiautomatic pipe-handling cranes. We offer the safest and most efficient. . The main function of the pipe-handling crane is to transport tubulars between the pipe deck and the catwalk using a purpose-built pipe gripper yoke. The crane may also be used for other lift operations such as moving bulk equipment and containers, either by. . Our horizontal-to-vertical (HTV) machines are designed to deliver singles from the catwalk position to the vertical position above a mousehole for stand-building operations. Once a. [pdf]

Drill pipe rig

Drill stems must be designed to transfer drilling torque for combined lengths that often exceed several miles down into the , and also must be able to resist pressure differentials between inside and outside (or vice versa), and have sufficient strength to suspend the total weight of deeper components. For deep wells this requires tempered steel tubes that are expensive, and owners spend considerable efforts to reuse them after finishing a well. [pdf]
