Project Background & Constraints

The Myanmar customer was engaged in non-metallic mineral exploration and engineering geological investigation. The construction site faced multiple constraints:

• Surface covering layer was loose and soft, easy to cause hole collapse and slag falling during drilling.

The project required 400m drilling depth (NTW standard) to obtain complete, pollution-free cylindrical core samples.

Limited site space for equipment transportation, installation and operation.

High demands on drilling efficiency, core recovery rate and equipment stability.

Customer’s Equipment Selection Logic

Before finalizing our solution, the customer compared multiple types of drilling equipment strictly based on actual construction needs:

1. Traditional mechanical drive core rigs: Low efficiency, large vibration, no stepless speed regulation, high failure rate in complex strata, not suitable for long-term deep hole drilling.
2. Vertical shaft core rigs: Only applicable for shallow holes within 200m, poor mobility, difficult to adapt to Myanmar’s terrain.
3. Reverse circulation (RC) drilling rigs: Produce powder samples only, cannot meet complete core requirements; additional air compressor increases total cost.After comprehensive comparison, the customer decided to choose crawler-mounted fully hydraulic core drilling rig with wire-line coring function as the ideal construction equipment.

Equipment Matching & On-Site Limitations

Our 400m Fully Hydraulic Core Drilling Rig highly matches the project requirements and solves on-site constraints perfectly:

Key Matching Advantages

1. Full hydraulic drive
2. Stepless speed regulation, stable drilling, small vibration; real-time pressure monitoring and overpressure protection ensure high safety.
3. Remote control crawler chassis
4. Support both remote control and manual operation; flexible movement, easy to level on uneven ground.
5. Telescopic mast structure
6. No extra drill tower needed, fast disassembly, assembly and transportation, saving construction time.
7. Thin-walled diamond wire-line coring
8. “Full, rigid, straight” drill string, good hole deviation control; low torque resistance, fast drilling speed, high core recovery rate.
9. Standard mud pump & casing solutionEffectively solve loose surface collapse, guarantee smooth drilling.

Solved On-Site Limitations

• Casing running to bedrock prevents hole collapse in shallow soft strata.
• Compact structure fits limited construction space.
• 1.5m standard drill rod supports fast connection and continuous drilling.

Model Confirmation & Configuration

The customer selected our 400m Fully Hydraulic Core Drilling Rig:

• NTW: 400m; HTW: 200m; BTW: 500m.
• Standard configuration: rubber crawler, 1.9m stroke, compatible with 1.5m drill rod.
• Matching tools: drill pipe, casing, diamond bit, reamer, inner tube assembly.No extra upgrade was added, which well controlled the project budget.

Delivery, Commissioning & On-Site Usage Feedback

We completed on-time delivery and professional on-site commissioning for the Myanmar customer:

1. Site preparation: Ground leveling, equipment calibration, mast angle adjustment.
2. Auxiliary system: Mud pool excavation, mud pump connection and testing.
3. Casing running: Lower casing to bedrock to avoid collapse.
4. Formal drilling: 1.5m drill rod cycle connection, continuous stable drilling.
5. Core extraction: Hydraulic winch salvage inner tube, obtain complete core quickly.
6. Final work: Core recording, hole lifting and sealing, site restoration.
