Design Features
Feed System (patented)
Powerful, direct coupled hydraulic cylinder driven feed system. Eliminates use of chains, cables, sprockets and sheaves (55,000lb. pullback/ 22,100lb. pulldown).

Derrick Carousel
The hydraulic rotating carousel holds 12 3 1/2" x 20' or 10 4 1/2" x 20' drill pipe, ensuring safe and rapid handling.

Split Centralizer Table
Centralizer base plate is split, rear half retracts hydraulically, and the front half swings out to accommodate casing and tools. Also includes an air-operated drill pipe holding wrench and hydraulic breakout wrench.

Hydraulic Swing Jibs
A standard 12,000 lb. main winch and jib and an optional 2,000 lb. auxiliary winch and jib, both position over the hole or swing to side for efficient casing and tool handling.

Top Head Drive
A variable 2-speed/torque, floating head provides smooth operation for air rotary, downhole hammer and helps the operator to recognize specific formations while drilling. Top head hydraulically slides to the side (off-hole), for convenience of setting casing.

Tubular Derrick
The tubular derrick construction is considerably lighter weight than traditional lattice-type derricks, while providing superior strength.
