  Diesel fuel consumption is the most important cost of operating a   DTH drilling rig  and is one cost that can be effectively controlled through management. 1. Non-perforating time reduction Use the existing DTH drilling rig and control the percentage of non-perforating time reduction. Non-perforating time includes rig displacement, rig changeover. The fuel-saving strategy includes rationalizing the rigged path within the gun area. Avoid repeated round trips. Turn off the air compressor engine during long-distance displacement. Prepare the next rod in advance when one rod is almost finished, etc. 2. Low fuel consumption per meter If you buy a new DTH drilling rig, remember to get one with low fuel consumption per meter. Note: Low fuel consumption per meter! Not low fuel consumption per hour! Single meter fuel consumption = meters per hour perforated / fuel consumption per hour When the engine power is certain, the fuel consumption per hour is fixed, so the higher the perforation effi

  Maintaining a crawler drilling rig is crucial to ensure its optimal performance, longevity, and safety. Regular maintenance not only prevents breakdowns but also contributes to the efficiency and reliability of the equipment. Here's a comprehensive guide on how to maintain a crawler drilling rig : Daily Inspection: Conduct a thorough visual inspection of the entire crawler drilling rig before each use. Check for loose bolts, leaks, and any signs of wear or damage. Pay attention to hydraulic hoses, connections, and the condition of the tracks. Lubrication: Proper lubrication is essential for the smooth operation of a crawler drilling rig. Regularly grease all moving parts, including joints, bearings, and pivot points. Follow the manufacturer's recommendations for the type and frequency of lubrication. Inspect Hydraulic Systems: Check hydraulic hoses and fittings for any signs of leaks or damage. Ensure that hydraulic fluid levels are within the recommended range. Monitor the p
