The ST-180 Pneumatic Water Well Drilling Rig offers significant advantages tailored to the diverse needs of Asian markets, combining technical excellence with local adaptability. Below is a detailed breakdown of its strengths:
Geology Type | ST-180 Advantages |
---|---|
Hard Rock Formations | - Pneumatic impact frequency: 1,800-2,400 blows/minute, penetrates granite/basalt (≤200MPa compressive strength). - 50% faster efficiency in volcanic rock regions (e.g., India, Philippines) vs. rotary rigs. |
Loose Sand/Alluvium | - Air reverse circulation prevents collapse; hole diameter up to 250mm (ideal for Southeast Asian riverbeds). - Optional mud pump enhances cuttings removal. |
High-Altitude Areas | - Altitude adaptability up to 4,000m (e.g., Nepal, Tibetan Plateau). - No hydraulic system avoids viscosity issues at high altitudes. |
1.Limited Electricity Supply
2.Fully pneumatic operation; requires only a diesel air compressor (e.g., 18m³/min screw type), suitable for off-grid areas (Indian villages, Indonesian islandsTransportation Constraints
Modular design (total weight: 1.2 tons), disassembles into 3-4 parts for pickup trucks, tractors, or pack animals.Compact dimensions: 3.2m×1.5m×1.8m (navigates narrow mountain roads).Low Technical Skill RequirementsEasy maintenance: No hydraulics reduces failure rates by 70%; local technicians can handle basic repairs.Simple operation: 1-day training for operators (vs. 3-5 days for hydraulic rigs).
Cost Factor | ST-180 Advantages |
---|---|
Initial Investment | 20-30% cheaper than comparable hydraulic rigs (e.g., Caterpillar models). |
Operational Costs | - Diesel consumption: 8-10L/h (40% fuel savings). - No hydraulic oil changes (saves $1,500+/year). |
Maintenance Costs | Core components last ≥2,000 hours; parts are widely compatible (e.g., COP-standard impactors). |
Low Noise
Operating noise ≤75dB, complies with urban/suburban regulations (e.g., Philippines EPA).
Emission Standards、Compatible with Tier 3 diesel compressors (meets China GB VI standards).
Policy Alignment
Supports government rural water initiatives (e.g., India’s Jal Jeevan Mission).
Regional Customization
Sumatra, Indonesia: Achieved 18m/day in volcanic ash (off-grid diesel compressor).Feature | ST-180 | Hydraulic Rigs in Asia |
---|---|---|
Power Dependency | Diesel air compressor (no grid required) | Requires stable power/hydraulics |
Terrain Adaptability | Modular transport (mountains/islands) | Heavy, crane-dependent |
Hard Rock Efficiency | Impact-driven, faster drilling | Slower rotary cutting |
Total Cost | 30% lower (purchase + maintenance) | High upfront cost, frequent oil changes |
