JCDRILL CWD400T Proves Its Strength in Southeast Asia Drilling Project

Project Overview

In a recent high-profile infrastructure project in Southeast Asia, JCDRILL's advanced drilling equipment demonstrated exceptional performance and reliability.

The project involved complex water well drilling boreholes and utilized the JCDRILL CWD400T Crawler Drill Rig, powered by the JCDRILL JAC31/25 high-pressure air compressor (25 BAR).

Performance and Advantages

Superior Penetration in Hard Rock

The combination of the CWD400T’s precise feed control and the high-pressure air (25 BAR) from the JAC31/25 compressor delivered outstanding penetration rates in challenging limestone and hard rock layers.

Compared to lower-pressure alternatives, this setup significantly reduced drilling time per hole.

Enhanced Efficiency and Cuttings Removal

The high-volume, high-pressure air provided by the compressor ensured excellent hole cleaning by efficiently lifting rock cuttings to the surface.

• Minimized hole blockage
• Reduced rod sticking
• Lower equipment wear

This resulted in smoother operations, improved continuity, and reduced downtime.

Reliability in Tough Conditions

Both the CWD400T crawler drill and the JAC31/25 air compressor demonstrated remarkable durability under demanding site conditions.

Their robust design withstood humid, dusty environments and continuous operation schedules, while the compressor maintained stable pressure output throughout the project.

Mobility and Ease of Setup

The crawler-mounted design of the CWD400T allowed it to easily navigate steep and uneven terrain, enabling fast and safe movement between drill points.

The integrated setup with the matched compressor streamlined site logistics and reduced overall setup time.

Fuel Efficiency and Cost-Effectiveness

Despite its high output, the JAC31/25 compressor delivered excellent fuel efficiency per unit of compressed air produced.

Combined with faster drilling speeds, this resulted in lower fuel consumption, reduced operating costs, and a favorable total cost of ownership.

Results and Client Feedback

The project was completed on schedule, with all drilling specifications fully met. The boreholes achieved the required depth and accuracy for foundation work.

“The performance of the CWD400T drill rig was instrumental in tackling the hard rock formations we faced.”
