Desert construction projects across Saudi Arabia bring harsh working conditions for drilling crews. High ambient temperature, frequent sand dust and hard rock strata easily wear down ordinary drilling machines. Many local contractors struggle with frequent breakdowns, slow penetration speed and high maintenance cost. As a professional manufacturer, YG also supplies reliable drilling solutions. This DTH drilling equipment shipment targets open‑air rock drilling for a Saudi infrastructure project. This real export case shares project background, full‑set parameters and desert‑proven performance for Middle‑East builders.

Inquiry: First Contact From Saudi Client Zaid
Client Zaid found YG through Google search. His team takes charge of highway expansion construction in central Saudi Arabia. Desert rock blasting hole drilling forms a core part of their work scope.
He compared multiple equipment suppliers and faced typical market pain‑points:
- Western brand rigs deliver stable performance but carry high purchase cost and long delivery cycles
- Some low‑cost machines cannot sustain long‑hour continuous operation under high‑temperature desert environment
Hard requirements from Zaid’s project:
- Drill blasting holes within 90‑146 mm diameter range for granite rock
- Crawler chassis adapts uneven desert ground
- Engine and hydraulic system withstand sustained high‑temperature working
- Quick local access to spare‑part support to minimize site downtime
Our sales team replied within four working hours. We collected rock hardness, target hole diameter, daily drilling volume and site temperature data, then scheduled an online technical video conference.
Video Conference: Select Suitable Dth Rig Machine For Desert Site
Zaid and his site technical supervisor joined our online meeting. They shared site photos and rock sample information. We walked through multiple YG models and their adaptability for Saudi desert conditions.
Core advantages for the selected YGS100A unit:
- Total machine weight reaches 5.95 T, stable crawler walking on uneven desert terrain
- Drilling hole diameter covers 90‑146 mm, perfectly matches blasting‑hole requirement
- 85L large‑capacity diesel tank supports long‑time non‑stop field operation
- Optimized heat‑dissipation structure copes with hot desert climate
- Complete English operation manuals and maintenance guidance for local operators
After evaluating YGS100A, YGS153 and YGS180 specs side‑by‑side, Zaid confirmed YGS100A as his final choice.

Quotation & Pre‑Shipment Inspection
Our formal quotation covers main YGS100A host machine, standard drill bits, drill rods and a full set of wear‑part kits. Zaid placed two practical custom demands for desert heavy‑duty use:
- Extra filter components against heavy sand‑dust pollution
- Extended spare‑parts package for remote site maintenance
Order execution terms:
- Payment: 50% deposit by wire transfer, remaining balance settled before factory shipment
- Destination port: Jeddah Islamic Port, Saudi Arabia
Our factory runs strict pre‑shipment testing:
- Continuous running test under simulated high‑temperature working mode
- Check crawler walking performance, rotation power and feeding system
- Inspect all hydraulic pipelines and sealing parts
- Reinforced seaworthy wooden packing resists long‑sea transport and desert storage

Shipping & Port Clearance: Dth Drilling Rig Delivered To Jeddah Port
Ocean transit lasts 32 days from Ningbo Port to Jeddah Islamic Port. Our sales team keeps sending container tracking updates. Zaid’s local customs broker finishes all import documentation, customs duty and tax formalities. After customs release, heavy‑duty truck transports the machine 520 km inland to the desert highway jobsite.
Zaid sent arrival photos and spoke highly of robust chassis welding quality and protective packing condition.

On‑Site Commissioning & Remote Training
On‑site assembly and debugging work finished within 3 hours. Local operators install drill rods, fit drill bits, check diesel and hydraulic oil level, and test crawler walking function.
Our engineer delivers remote live‑video training covering key operation modules:
- Crawler movement and site position adjustment in desert terrain
- DTH drilling parameter setting for hard granite rock
- Daily dust cleaning for radiator, air filter and hydraulic components
- Regular wear‑part checking and replacement workflow
All local operators master independent machine operation after the training session.

Desert Site Working Performance
Zaid’s team ran this unit for 42 consecutive working days under hot desert conditions.
- Average drilling depth: 18‑24 meters per working shift
- Stable drilling diameter: 90‑146 mm blasting holes
- No critical breakdowns even under daytime temperature above 42℃
- Filter replacement cycle matches our recommended maintenance schedule
Measurable project benefits Zaid’s team gained:
✅ High penetration speed accelerates blasting‑hole preparation progress
✅ Heat‑dissipation design reduces overheat shutdown risk in desert
✅ Convenient spare‑part kit cuts waiting time for remote desert jobsite
✅ Low overall operating cost compared with imported western rigs
