Unique designed drilling set for Holland Drilling

Professional mud handling equipment is needed to realize horizontal drillings to construct and repair underground pipes and tubes without deconstructing the road. Holland Drilling reached out to Bofram and asked us to construct a high pressure and mix pump set in a horizontal directional drilling truck. Of course, our engineers were able to fulfill this request. Bofram designed and produced a complete drilling vehicle that allows our customer to work as efficiently as possible. We took all the wishes of the customer into account for a magnificent result.

Special wishes

A big water reservoir is present underneath the wooden floor of the trenchless drilling vehicle, so the drilling team always has enough water to their disposal. The 400 L/min bentonite mixing and pumping installation is equipped with a vacuum system and hydraulic reel. There is also a heated canteen in the drilling vehicle, so the team is not dependent on external facilities on location.

Your case is our challenge!

With our many years of practical experience in HDD mud systems, we can empathize with the needs and wishes of you as our customer.

Safety

An automatic expandable platform with a stable staircase has been designed to ensure safety and stability while entering and leaving the horizontal directional drilling truck. Even though, this might seem simple we had to cope with several restrictions. We only had limited space available for the platform, which had to be stable and accessible from both sides of the drilling vehicle. Our engineers ensured stability and accessibility by providing the platform with two crossbars and two stairs that can be retracted or extended. Moreover, all pumps and tanks are provided with a water level meter, which prevents the system of running dry. Furthermore, error messages are fed back into the control system and the coherent values can be found on the display. This way the trenchless drilling team is always up-to-date on the performance of the system.

User-friendliness

Ergonomic working and environment friendliness are two essential pillars in our organization. The engineers of Bofram always take these into account. To save as much fuel and energy as possible, the team engineered the drilling vehicle and high pressure and mix pump set in such a way that it is very low in energy utilization. Moreover, we use a silent power source to reduce sound and take the work environment and employees on-site into account.
