What Knowledge Reserves Are Needed To Operate A Rotary Drilling Rig Well

To operate a rotary drilling rig well is not as simple as just knowing how to handle it! Solid knowledge reserves are the key to efficient construction and ensuring safety. The following six types of knowledge are the "compulsory courses" that every rotary drilling rig operator must master!

1. Mechanical principle knowledge: One must understand the working principles of the engine, hydraulic system, and transmission device of the rotary drilling rig. Only by knowing how each component works in coordination can faults be predicted, problems be identified in a timely manner, and construction "failures" be avoided.

2. Construction geological knowledge: Different geological conditions (such as clay, sand, and rock layers) have a significant impact on drilling. Only by mastering the geological characteristics can one select the right drill bit, adjust the drilling parameters and prevent accidents such as hole collapse and stuck drilling.

3. Equipment operation norms: From correct startup preheating, precise control of the verticality of drill pipes, to standardized final inspection, each link has a standard procedure. Operating strictly in accordance with the regulations can not only ensure the construction quality but also extend the service life of the equipment.

4. Safety protection knowledge: The construction site environment is complex. It is necessary to keep in mind key points such as the safe distance for hoisting and the protection against leakage of equipment. Be familiar with emergency response measures so that you can react quickly in case of unexpected situations and ensure personal and equipment safety.

5. Daily maintenance skills: Regularly check the levels of engine oil and hydraulic oil, clean the filter, and tighten key components. Proper daily maintenance can reduce equipment malfunctions, prevent minor gains from causing major losses, and avoid delaying the project progress.

6. Engineering drawing reading: Only by understanding the pile foundation construction drawings and clearly defining the parameter requirements such as pile position, pile depth, and hole diameter can precise construction be carried out according to the design to ensure that the project meets the standards.

To operate a rotary drilling rig well, mechanical principles, geological knowledge, and operation norms are all indispensable "hardcore" reserves. Only by thoroughly learning and proficiently applying these knowledge can one handle construction with ease and become a professional and reliable operator!
