What Are the Types of Water Well Drilling Rigs?

Water well drilling rigs can be divided into the following categories according to their different structures, drilling depths and application scenarios:

Classification by Structural Form:

1. Truck-mounted water well drilling rig
Installed on the chassis of the car, it has strong mobility and is suitable for field mobile operations. These rigs can be quickly transferred to different job sites, but the depth of penetration is limited.

2. Crawler water well drilling rig
It adopts crawler chassis, which has strong passability and is suitable for complex terrain such as mountains and swamps. Crawler rigs have good stability, but move slowly.

3. Trailer-mounted water well drilling rig
It needs to be towed by a tractor, which is suitable for fixed operation points or short-distance transportation. Trailer-mounted rigs are less costly, but less maneuverable.

4. Portable water well drilling rig
Small in size and light in weight, it is suitable for shallow well or household water well construction. Portable drill rigs are easy to operate, but have limited drilling capacity.

Classified by Depth of Drilling:

1. Shallow well water well drilling rig
The drilling depth is generally less than 100 meters, which is suitable for shallow well projects such as household water and farmland irrigation.

2. Medium and deep well water well drilling rigs
The drilling depth is between 100 meters and 300 meters, which is suitable for village and town water supply, small enterprise water supply and other projects.

3. Deep well water well drilling rig
The drilling depth is more than 300 meters, which is suitable for large-scale projects such as urban water supply and industrial water. Deep drilling rigs need to have the characteristics of high power and high stability.

Categorized by Application Scenario:

1. Agricultural water well drilling rigs
It is suitable for farmland irrigation, animal husbandry drinking water and other projects, and usually requires the drilling rig to be light and efficient.

2. Industrial water well drilling rigs
It is suitable for water needs in factories and mines, and needs to have high drilling efficiency and stability.

3. Geological exploration water well drilling rig
For geological survey, hydrogeological exploration, etc., it needs to be equipped with core sampling device, which has high requirements for drilling accuracy.

4. Emergency water supply water well drilling rig
It is suitable for emergency water supply after earthquakes, floods and other disasters, requiring rapid deployment and easy operation of drilling rigs.
