R100 Magnum Specs
15,000 lb weight rated swivel - You can only drill as deep as the swivel weight rating will hold drill
pipe weight, thats why most companies don't show there swivel weight ratings, because they don't
match there drilling depths they advertise.
Side inlet intake on swivel is a massive 2 inch flow. What good is a large mud pump when it is reduced
down to 3/4 or 1 inch water course swivel opening.
Rig Mast
The R100 magnum mast is USA made Heavy wall I-beam, not light gauge tubing like used on china
car-ports. There are many things in life to save money on, but mast and swivels are not one of them.
When your in a bind, pulling drill pipe out , you can't afford to have a mast that folds up on you.
Mayhew Jr drill pipe (no seem pipe ) 10ft lengths
The large 2-3/8 "drill pipe is still oil field industry standard . Toy rigs use small toy plumbing pipe. Talk
is cheap, if you want to drill you need flow, to get flow you need large drill pipe flow& large swivel
flow. The Mayhew Jr connections are heat treated so they last & last. Also the threads are very course
and don't over tighten.
All of our pipe is first tested at 6000psi before it is used. With the 10 ft lengths that means less
connections and faster getting out of the hole and getting casing in before bore hole caves in.
Beware of 4ft,5ft and 6 ft pipe connections, theres a reason for short drill pipe. Short drill pipe means
light duty mast and weaker hydraulics that can't handle the extra weight. One more tip, If you drill a
300ft well with 5 ft drill pipe and ream it out 3 times that takes 360 pipe connections going down and
up & out each time, WOW. With 10 ft pipe that cuts connections and drilling time in half. And if your
10ft drill pipe is large & rigid Like 2 3/8" you can drill and ream wells in 2 passes instead of 3 or 4 or 5.
We believe our R100 is the best bang for the buck.
Hydraulics
The life of any hydraulic machine is the design. The R100 has a large hydraulic tank so hydraulic oil
stays cool. Over heated oil damages pumps,valves and pumps and seals. Our rigs have been tested in
the summer heat where summer temps get up to 95 degrees at 10.30 am in the morning. Also our
pumps and drive motors are computer flow matched to work together so they produce torque enough
for the toughest formations without creating extra heat. The hydraulic filter is quick change, so even a
novice can change them in 30 seconds, no special tools needed.
Hydraulic hoses are all standard , for easy replacement and repair. We stock replacements, but
replacements also can be bought at any auto parts store or equipment company. We strive to build the
best drilling rig in its class anywhere, not corner the parts market. There's nothing worse than to have a
rig down, because of a simple hydraulic hose blows .Then find out , that it can only be bought in New
York city and it's Friday 5.30 pm. Companies that custom design in a world wide parts market in there
equipment hold you hostage, charging 100s for even the smallest O-ring or hydraulic hose. This is not
our style.
Prices
When researching & pricing drilling equipment look for swivel weight ratings & water course sizes, Drill
pipe lengths and pipe stroke length, And drill pipe ID and OD. Also what drill pipe connections and
threads. CA-21* 1-1/2", Mayhew Jr *2-3/8" ,API 2-7/8" 8 round upset are real water well and oil
field standards. The rest are just honey lip salesmen and china muffer pipe.
Don't get hung with plumbing pipe or electric conduit, and be told its real heavy duty drill pipe, its only
for toy rigs. We only sell real oil field grade drill pipe , not imported china pipe with seems and a
shallow thread job on it. Please educate yourself, or get a degree in the school of hard knocks. For
more help, try out DIY help books.
Making money drilling
The Drilling business and very good, because even if things slow down, you still need a drink. Just do a
test, call a few drillers out of the local phone book. You will find out, it may be 2 to 3 days before they
even return your call, then you will find out that they quote you a high price twice as high as your guess
and don't care if you like it. Then ,even if you have cash in hand waiting for them, ask them how fast
they can get there to start, if they can start before 3 to 5 weeks i will be surprised. Also with geothermal
ac / heat taking off and environmental soil testing theres a big market also. Obama promises to
mandate more geothermal use nation wide.With city water prices going higher and water quality poor,
people desire their own water well.
Land developing And getting your return back fast.
When you can buy cheap country land or remote property and add a water well, you just changed
some cheap remote land to a desirable get away retreat someone would be glad to pay top dollar for.
The thing that makes land cheap is no water. Adding a water well to any lot or acre easily adds 10,000
to 18,000 or more to the value. If you have your own drilling rig you can drill and set casing & screen
on a 200ft well for about 245.00, plus another 450.00 for a new pump,tank and pressure switch. Still
much cheaper than 7 to 12k thousand dollars drillers are charging.
Rental income
The going rate for drilling rig rental is 650.00 per day and 2 day minimum. Renting the drilling rig to land
owners works well for people who want a quick return on there money and land owners who want to
drill there own water well or geothermal system on there own land.
