Water well drill pipe

Water well drilling is the process of drilling a hole in the ground for the extraction of natural ground water resource, customers most commonly use our water well drill pipes to drill water well through rotary mud drilling method.

Rotary mud drilling uses drilling mud (mixes of water, bentonite clays, polymers, and additives) as the circulation medium. In the rotary mud system, drilling fluid or mud is pumped down through the drill pipe and out through nozzles in the bit. As the bit penetrates the formation material, the drilling fluid circulates continuously and removes the cuttings. The fluid also serves to cool and lubricate the bit. The mud fluid then flows upwards in the annular space around the drill pipe to the surface, carrying the cuttings with it in suspension.
At the surface, the drilling fluid is conditioned before being recirculated down the hole. Properly conditioning the mud helps to prevent down-hole problems.
The basic fluid normally used for rotary drilling is water, to which specific chemicals and other additives can be added to increase the density or viscosity to improve hole support. The fluid can also be weighted to control artesian pressures.
Rotary mud drilling is useful for drilling operations in soft, unconsolidated formations, deep bores, and pressure bores.
