Estimated Productivity
Indicative output per 10–11 hour day.
Productivity varies with parking, access between boreholes, ground conditions, well installation, waste handling, water supply and cleanup requirements.
| Ground / Method | Good access Direct access + good parking Truck and support vehicle parking available; direct access between boreholes; minimal SPTs. | Constrained parking Tricky parking + direct rig access Additional unload/load and parking time; direct access between boreholes; minimal SPTs. | Constrained movement Tricky parking + no direct access Rig may need to be loaded onto the truck between borehole locations; minimal SPTs. |
|---|---|---|---|
| Class 3 sandstone | up to 30-35 m for one borehole | up to 20-25 m for one borehole | up to 20-25 m for one borehole |
| Class 3 shale | up to 25-30 m for one borehole | up to 20-25 m for one borehole | up to 20-25 m for one borehole |
| Highly fractured rock | up to 20-25 m for one borehole | up to 15-20 m for one borehole | up to 15-20 m for one borehole |
| Deep saturated sands | up to 20-25 m for one borehole | up to 15-20 m for one borehole | up to 15-20 m for one borehole |
| Air drilling in bedrock | up to 30-35 m for one borehole | up to 20-25 m for one borehole | up to 20 m where there is space for the compressor |
Additional Time Allowances
On top of the drilling estimates above, allow extra time for: well installation, offsite waste transfer, transporting water where none is available onsite, and extensive borehole cleanup
Project Planning
Is Rig 01 – Hanjin DB8D (Hanzo) the right rig for your site?
Review access, required drilling method, target depth, parking, water availability and borehole movement before mobilisation.
