tulsa rig iron mud pump factory

A mud pump is a reciprocating piston or plunger device designed to pump drilling fluid under high pressures and volumes down the drill string of a drilling rig. The main functions of drilling fluid are to provide hydrostatic pressure to prevent formation fluids from entering and to stabilize the bore, to keep the drill bit cool and clean, to carry drill cuttings back out to the surface, and to suspend the drill cuttings while drilling is paused or during the pullback process.

Mud pumps consist of two main sub-assemblies- the fluid end and the power end. The fluid end performs the pumping process with valves, pistons, and liners, or plungers and stuffing boxes- depending upon the type used. These components are considered expendables, and are designed to be easily replaced in the field. The power end contains the eccentric or crankshaft, along with the connecting rods, and cross heads/slides.

Founded in 1987 by J.D. Young, Tulsa Rig Iron was the premier designer and manufacturer of horizontal directional drilling rigs, along with mud pumps and mud recycling systems. In 2004, sons Trevor and Troy took the company helm and made the decision to concentrate the company efforts on building the best mud pumps and recycling systems available. Since that time, Tulsa Rig Iron has continued to set the industry standards for mud pump and recycling systems and is the manufacturer of choice for contractors around the globe. Fourth quarter 2013 marks a significant company milestone, in that we will effectively double our manufacturing capacity with a huge facility expansion. This will allow us to get equipment to our customers in a more timely fashion. Our state of the art manufacturing facility is located on 40 acres in Kiefer Oklahoma, a suburb just outside of Tulsa.

Tulsa Rig Iron is dedicated to being the industry leading provider of products and solutions for energy contractors. We will always have the best interest of our customers, our employees, and the environment in mind while designing and delivering our products and services.

In the early 70"s, JD Young owned and operated Triangle Supplies in Lafayette Louisiana, which supplied pumps to the offshore oil & gas market. In the early 80"s, a second Triangle facility was opened in Tulsa Oklahoma.

JD Young was instrumental in the early development of HDD equipment technology. When the HDD process started gaining traction, in 1987 relocated to Kiefer Oklahoma, just outside of Tulsa. Many early emerging HDD contractors were located in Tulsa, so relocating the company headquarters was a great move.

Originally consisting of several divisions, Tulsa Rig Iron provided many products and services to the HDD Market. The core divisions at that time were Hydro-Power Systems, Tulsa Trenchless, and Tulsa Triplex.

Early product/services designs were packaged drilling mud recycling systems and triplex mud pumps, evolved to include the manufacture of mini thru maxi HDD drill rigs. The early 90"s thru the early 2000"s saw Tulsa Rig Iron as a major player in the HDD product market.

After a complete business analysis, Trevor and Troy decided to shutter the outlying divisions and focus their vision solely on designing and manufacturing world class mud cleaning systems and triplex mud pumps.

In 2014, Tulsa Rig Iron brought to market a hydrostatic combo fill/pressure pump package. This system allows for much easier and efficient pressure testing of pipelines.

Our 600 horsepower TT-680 pump package offers up to 625 GPM normal pumping volume. Capable of acheiving flow rates greater than pumps three times its size and weight, the standard TT-680 skidded package weighs in at a mere 28,000 lbs. Available as a bare pump, with chain box, or a complete skidded package.

Tulsa Triplex is our pump division which is housed within our state of the art manufacturing facility in Kiefer OK. We outsource very few components for our systems, everything else is made right here in Kiefer. Our team does not consist of just “employees”, rather true craftsmen that take great pride and demand perfection from their work. We control the high quality of our products! We do not manufacture any other types of equipment that would distract us from our sole focus — to manufacture the best pumps and recycling systems on the market.

Our 500 horsepower TT-660 pump package offers up to 720 GPM normal pumping volumes. This is one of our best selling pumps for HDD applications, because it offers high volumes at relatively low pressures. It can produce pressures required to run a mud motor and the volume to clean the hole, while running the largest of hole openers. It features a smaller footprint and lighter weight than competing models, making it completely legal load size and weight in most instances. The standard TT-660 skidded package weighs in at a mere 26,000 lbs. Available as a bare pump, with chain box, or a complete skidded package.

Tulsa Rig Iron (TRI), designer and manufacturer of mud pumps, mud recycling systems and more, recently welcomed U.S. Rep. Kevin Hern (R-Okla.) to its manufacturing facility in Kiefer, Oklahoma, for an “I Make America” event.

Hern, a member of the powerful Ways and Means Committee in Washington, D.C., toured Tulsa Rig Iron’s state-of-the-art manufacturing facility before addressing those in attendance.

“My whole advocacy is making sure I can do everything that I possibly can as a member of congress to get government out of the way and put Americans to work,” said Hern as he addressed members of AEM, as well as representatives from TRI’s partners in Tulsa Pipeline Equipment Manufacturers (TPLEM), Midwestern Manufacturing and Darby Equipment Co. “You guys have a tough job,” Hern continued. “I just want to say thank you. It takes folks like you to move America forward.”
