Our triplex and quintuplex pumps, cementing and fracturing equipments are interchangeable to global famous brands: Weir spm, Serva, BJ, Gardner Denver, Halliburton, Oilwell, OPI and so on. We also make a full line of Module assy and fluid end expendables for popular mud pumps in the world, including continental Emsco, National, Gardner Denver, Oilwell, Ideco, Wheatly, Wilson,with, opi, Ellis Williams, etc.

The 2,200-hp mud pump for offshore applications is a single-acting reciprocating triplex mud pump designed for high fluid flow rates, even at low operating speeds, and with a long stroke design. These features reduce the number of load reversals in critical components and increase the life of fluid end parts.

The pump’s critical components are strategically placed to make maintenance and inspection far easier and safer. The two-piece, quick-release piston rod lets you remove the piston without disturbing the liner, minimizing downtime when you’re replacing fluid parts.

There are many different ways to drill a domestic water well. One is what we call the “mud rotary” method. Whether or not this is the desired and/or best method for drilling your well is something more fully explained in this brief summary.

One advantage of drilling with compressed air is that it can tell you when you have encountered groundwater and gives you an indication how much water the borehole is producing. When drilling with water using the mud rotary method, the driller must rely on his interpretation of the borehole cuttings and any changes he can observe in the recirculating fluid. Mud rotary drillers can also use borehole geophysical tools to interpret which zones might be productive enough for your water well.

The mud rotary well drilling method is considered a closed-loop system. That is, the mud is cleaned of its cuttings and then is recirculated back down the borehole. Referring to this drilling method as “mud” is a misnomer, but it is one that has stuck with the industry for many years and most people understand what the term actually means.

The water is carefully mixed with a product that should not be called mud because it is a highly refined and formulated clay product—bentonite. It is added, mixed, and carefully monitored throughout the well drilling process.

The purpose of using a bentonite additive to the water is to form a thin film on the walls of the borehole to seal it and prevent water losses while drilling. This film also helps support the borehole wall from sluffing or caving in because of the hydraulic pressure of the bentonite mixture pressing against it. The objective of the fluid mixture is to carry cuttings from the bottom of the borehole up to the surface, where they drop out or are filtered out of the fluid, so it can be pumped back down the borehole again.

When using the mud rotary method, the driller must have a sump, a tank, or a small pond to hold a few thousand gallons of recirculating fluid. If they can’t dig sumps or small ponds, they must have a mud processing piece of equipment that mechanically screens and removes the sands and gravels from the mixture. This device is called a “shale shaker.”

The driller does not want to pump fine sand through the pump and back down the borehole. To avoid that, the shale shaker uses vibrating screens of various sizes and desanding cones to drop the sand out of the fluid as it flows through the shaker—so that the fluid can be used again.

Some drillers use compressed air to blow off the well, starting at the first screened interval and slowly working their way to the bottom—blowing off all the water standing above the drill pipe and allowing it to recover, and repeating this until the water blown from the well is free of sand and relatively clean. If after repeated cycles of airlift pumping and recovery the driller cannot find any sand in the water, it is time to install a well development pump.

Additional development of the well can be done with a development pump that may be of a higher capacity than what the final installation pump will be. Just as with cycles of airlift pumping of the well, the development pump will be cycled at different flow rates until the maximum capacity of the well can be determined. If the development pump can be operated briefly at a flow rate 50% greater than the permanent pump, the well should not pump sand.

Mud rotary well drillers for decades have found ways to make this particular system work to drill and construct domestic water wells. In some areas, it’s the ideal method to use because of the geologic formations there, while other areas of the country favor air rotary methods.

EASY: all six functions along the centerline use machine hydraulics and controls to side-shift without manipulating mast position or mobilizing multiple machines - simply set it and forget it. Controls grouped by function make it easy to move several levers simultaneously. Built-in CPT functionality simplifies cone penetration testing and hands-free controls for feed and rotation reduce operator fatigue during rock coring.

EFFECTIVE: versatility to complete an array of sampling techniques – in unconsolidated and consolidated formations - with a single machine without compromise. Separate hydraulic circuit dedicated to mud pump provides stable mud flow.

Six functions along the 28-inch centerline head side shift simplify traditional geotechnical applications — augering, mud rotary, SPT, Shelby tubes, hard rock cores, CPT – and even direct push. Features GH63 percussion hammer 4-speed rotary head with 4,000 ft-lb, DH104 hands-free automatic drop hammer, CPT push/pull assembly, and a rod grip pull system. Head shifting speeds up drilling and minimizes the time driller spends in danger zone.

Align the probe cylinder and tool string on a straight – or angled – path to the subsurface while the machine remains stable with the built-in oscillation, standard on all machines.

Drill mast features extend, swing, mast dump, oscillation, and fold. Mast dump provides 36.5 inches of vertical travel to allow room for a mud pan. Outriggers let you quickly set up above the mud pan as well.

Hands-free rotary and head feed controls on the 3100GT reduce strain on driller when completing applications like mud rotary. CPT feed rate and hydraulic limit functions are standard.

The 7-inch single breakout firmly grips casing with adjustable clamp force up to 21,000 lbs. The breakout can be positioned either under the hammer or the rotary drive, as well as swung away from the machine.

Pump options for the 3100GT include the Moyno® 3L6 or Moyno® 3L8 pumps. The pump is controlled at the control panel with an on/off switch and the flow can be adjusted with a flow dial.
