This mud pump will deliver the consistent flow of drilling fluid that is vital to HDD pipeline drilling projects. Suction inlet valve suspends charged flow during drill rod makeup and breakout process, keeping excess drilling fluid from escaping as drill pipes separate. The lubrication pump is driven off the auxiliary pad on the engine. It provides 55 psi (3.8 bar) of continuous crankshaft lubrication. The internal hydraulic reservoir has a capacity of 49 gal (185.5 L). Clutch with continuous duty throw-out bearing allows for longer pump disengagement during drill rod makeup/breakout....

A triplex piston pump produces up to 435.3 gpm (1647.8 L/min), providing a continuous flow of drilling fluid during drill operations. An electric centrifugal pump provides constant flow, keeping the pump running cool and leading to a longer life for both pistons and liners. Remote pendant control allows operator to mount controls where it makes sense for them. The remote pendant control monitors mud rate and eliminates the need for stroke counter. The integrated liner wash tank eliminates the need for additional water containers or electricity when running the pump. An engine-mounted air...

Vermeer BC is proud to offer the high-pressured mud pump to the pipeline equipment lineup as your one-stop shop for major components of pipeline drilling operations. On a job with tight deadlines, contractors can work easier knowing they are supported by quality, durable Vermeer equipment.

Centerline Manufacturing has been involved in the design, manufacture and production of drilling equipment and tooling for the water well industry. I have had the pleasure of knowing and working with Cory Miller of Centerline Manufacturing over the past 15 years. As the Senior Design Engineer for Ingersoll-Rand’s Deephole Drilling Business Unit, I had the distinct pleasure to work with Cory and integrate his Centerline Mud Pump into our drilling rig platforms. I am recommending Cory for this award and recognition because after decades in this business, I have not seen such an innovative design become a reality and commercialized such as the Centerline Mud Pump.

The true innovation is providing well drillers a size and weight solution for their mud pump requirements. Centerline Mud Pumps integrate into both existing and new drilling rigs. Regardless of drill rig manufacture and hydraulic system design, Centerline provides mud pump integration on hundreds of customer’s drilling rigs. Both Mono Cylinder and Duplex Cylinder Pumps can fit nicely on the deck, across the frame or even under deck mounting configurations. This would not be possible with conventional mud pump designs.

The design features of the Centerline Mud Pump include a matched displacement ratio between the mud pump cylinder and the hydraulic drive cylinder. This is critical to the constant and smooth transition of movement back and forth.  It provides a steady discharge flow of mud.

What I dignifies Cory Miller and points to his character? It is how Centerline stuck with their original design through all of the typical trials and tribulations that come with a new product integration. The first several years were challenging. Cory found out that even the best quality hydraulic cylinders and valves and seals were not good enough quality. He then set off on an endeavor to bring everything in house. He began manufacturing all of his own components including hydraulic valves. This gave him complete control over the quality of very component that goes into the Centerline Mud Pump and the finished product.

By the late 90’s, Ingersoll-Rand had tried several times to develop a hydraulic driven mud pump. The goal was to create a mud pump that would last an acceptable life and duty cycle for well drilling contractors. With all of our resources and design wisdom, we were unable to solve this problem. Not only did Cory Miller provide a solution, thus saving the size and weight of a typical gear driven mud pump, he also provided a new offering of a mono cylinder mud pump. This double acting piston pump provided as much mud flow and pressure as a standard 5 X 6 duplex pump. It also came with an incredible size and weight savings.

The second generation design for the Centerline Mud Pump is coming out later in 2018. It will be a true game changer for this industry. It also will open up the application into many other industries that require a heavier duty cycle for a piston pump application.

I have had the unique opportunity to work alongside Cory Miller for many years now. I hope to work alongside him for many more. His innovation and tenacity is infectious. Cory is a true inventor at heart. We are blessed that his passion is focused in the ground water industry. Cory has had a long history of mission work. He recently spent several weeks in Mexico. There, he provided new water wells for small villages and towns that were desperately in need. It is hard to sum up a person as Cory Miller in a few words. However, the best way I know how is to say that he is “Gracious Gentleman known for Innovation and Excellence.”
