The variable pump speed of PITPUMP™ allows it to work seamlessly with the smart generator architecture of the EMPOWER™ line. Current job site use has resulted in decreased fuel consumption of over 40% when the EMP40™ is used in tandem with PITPUMP™ across both entry- and exit-side operations.

As development brings new utilities and services to suburban and rural areas near growing cities, installing new buried lines and pipes pose many challenges. These additions are usually installed close to existing houses and businesses, requiring careful drilling and boring procedures. Directional drilling is a great way to make essential infrastructure and utility installations while disturbing local traffic patterns and residents as little as possible. Yet the success or failure of any particular directional drilling or boring project often hinges on the quality of the pump chosen for the process.

Directional drilling is a method of creating a shallow underground tunnel with a boring tip and a heavy-duty slurry pump. This combination can dig relatively large diameter channels without disturbing the surface of the ground, minimizing damage to the landscape and qualifying the procedure as a trenchless service. This technique is also referred to as directional boring and Horizontal Directional Drilling (HDD), depending on the size of the channel and the equipment used to bore it. This technique can penetrate a wide range of dense and soft soil conditions, including flooded grounds and wetlands.

Almost any installation of a curved and relatively shallow pipe or cable can be handled with directional drilling equipment. This means there’s high demand for the services across the country.

Since directional drilling doesn’t require digging a trench from the surface downward, there’s little disturbance to plants and trees. This makes it popular among both city planners and homeowners living around the installation areas where boring is necessary. A drilling fluid is used to keep heat from building up and to encourage the flow of debris smoothly down the pipe. This fluid consists of a steady supply of fresh water mixed with a specially made polymer or bentonite clay to increase the lubricating and cooling properties of the liquid. To keep the fluids moving at full pressure, the project needs heavy-duty slurry pumps to move the debris-filled liquid back to the reclaiming chamber to clear out bits of dirt and rock. The slurry removal and transport pump takes the brunt of wear and tear from the process since it must move liquids packed with sharp bits of stone and soil that are highly abrasive.

Most directional drilling pumps are based on modified slurry pump designs since these units need to work with drills producing up to 600 metric tons of thrust force. Large bore directional drilling heads can remove large chunks of solid stone and compacted soil that causes a lot of wear and tear to traditional slurry pumps. Debris bouncing against internal parts like impellers and spiral vanes results in constant repairs and a shortened lifespan of the pump. EDDY pumps are designed to last even in challenging directional drilling and boring applications.

It’s the specific design of the EDDY Pump that makes it ideal for directional boring and HDD uses. An open rotor design allows objects of up to 12 inches in diameter to pass through the pump without clogging it. This should cover even the largest and most aggressive cuttings generated by boring and drilling. There’s also no issue with generating plenty of pressure with any kind of drilling fluid with the open rotor design. Corrosive and abrasive mixtures don’t cause issues for the tough EDDY Pump design either. There’s relatively little maintenance needed to keep the high solids EDDY slurry pump working project after project. Sizing the right pump to the boring equipment will ensure it lasts for years with minimal wear and tear from the abrasive debris and cuttings.

Most contracts for public and private directional boring work include a clause stipulating the contractor is responsible for cleaning up after the work is completed. These cleanup steps usually include dewatering any remaining drilling fluid or transporting the cleaning water left over after the drilling bits are removed. Slurry pumps are also great for quickly removing these lingering fluids even when plenty of debris is mixed into the liquid.

High-pressure pump manufacturer Gardner Denver High Pressure Solutions (HPS) has launched its new GD 250HDD pump for a range of horizontal directional drilling (HDD) applications.

HDD pumps — also known as drill pumps, mud pumps, and high flow pumps — serve as an integral component to operations and provide an essential service to the HDD industry. In a release, the company calls its new product a “durable, reliable, American-made pump.”

The company says the GD 250HDD expands its pump offerings into the wider HDD space for the first time. The pump can be used to tunnel under rivers and roads and help to lay sewerage systems, water pipes, fiber optic lines and pipelines.

The pump, which Gardner Denver says is built with quality and efficiency in mind, features a high rod load rating of 50,000 pounds, making it tough and long lasting. Gardner Denver designed it to run at much slower speeds while matching or exceeding the performance of existing pumps. For example, the GD 250HDD can produce 300 gpm at 1400 psi while operating under 200 rpm. At this slow run speed, the pump can deliver the same output, flow and pressure, with less violent actions, wear and friction. Delivering fewer strokes extends consumable life.

“The weight to horsepower ratio of the GD 250HDD surpasses all other industry competitors,” says Ryan Huseman, lead engineer on the project. “The GD 250 HDD packs a huge amount of power in a very small-dimensional envelope, which makes it ideal for the HDD market. The pump runs incredibly smoothly due to the rigidity of the high strength ductile iron frame. Additionally, all the of the bearings on the GD 250HDD feature a pressurized lubrication system, so the pump can tackle the biggest projects in the industry.”

The GD 250HDD weighs under 4,000 pounds, has a maximum flowrate of 460 gpm and can reach pressures up to 3,000 psi. This triplex pump offers a 5-inch stroke, 50,000 pounds rod load rating and 250 breaking horsepower (BHP).

“For more than 160 years, Gardner Denver has been building a legacy of product innovation in pumping technology,” says Brandon Janda, product manager, Gardner Denver HPS. “With the GD 250HDD pump, our expertise is now being used to improve operations in the HDD market. The components of the new pump have been designed using Gardner Denver’s decades of experience in the industrial and petroleum industries. We have now taken this very robust field-proven technology and applied it to HDD pumps, introducing a 100% American-made, rugged, longer-lasting industrial pump — helping customers reduce downtime, extend consumable life and ultimately tackle bigger, tougher projects in less time.”

Gardner Denver’s High Pressure Solutions division designs, manufacturers and services high-pressure pumps and parts. The company says its state-of-the-art repair and service facilities across North America make it an ideal partner for high-pressure solutions. For more information, visit www.gardnerdenverpumps.com.

The MR90 was designed with cost-efficiency in mind. It makes for a comparably quicker setup time, features remote controlled hydraulic functions and comes with an automatic pump shutoff that prevents overflow.

The self-contained mud recycler can mix and recycle drilling mud and handle spoils. Its two-screen system and six 2.5-inch hydrocyclones provide clean mud for reuse. The screens are designed to be easy to change and service, and they can be hydraulically adjusted to separate spoils.

For fast setup, the MR90 uses hydraulic leveling for the screens and hydraulic jack on the tongue of the trailer. It also features a compact cleaning package capable of meeting the demands of directional drilling jobsites.

Optional remote control of pumps makes the job easier for small crews and an automatic pit pump control utilizes a float sensor, turning the pump off when the mud recycler is not manned.
