Mast Unit 

The T500XD is a trailer mounted portable land rig designed to API 4F, 7K

and 8C standards. Dual MTU V2000 diesel engines provide power to the

hydraulic system for drilling operations.

 

system consists of fewer loads and offers rapid set-up and deployment.

Automated pipe handling, slip actuation and breakout systems set this

machine apart from conventional oilfield equipment. Our Half-Triple concept

is designed to utilize Range 3 drill pipe for increased drilling efficiency and

quick trip times.

 

The mast unit is mounted on a 4 axle trailer with tandem tag axle and

includes hydraulic components necessary to transmit power to the feed,

rotation and auxiliary functions. Quick coupled hoses transmit the hydraulic

supply from the Power Unit to the rig's Mast Unit.

 

Telescoping construction permits long head travel and working height, yet

short overall length in the transport position. Equipped with a 30" (762 mm)

cylinder operated slide, the mast is free-standing, all pullback loads are

directed into the floor, not the rig frame. The mast is anchored to the rig floor

via locking pins.

 

Feed System - The top head is raised and lowered by hydraulic traverse

cylinders through 2-7/16" (63 mm) OD wire rope (370 Tons Nominal Breaking

Strength per strand) and 77" PD Nylatron sheaves. As the tophead is raised,

the inner mast section extends by a ratio of 1:2 until it reaches its fully

extended position at 56' of head travel.

floating sub is provided to extend the life of threads by removing feed cylinder

and pipe weight forces from threads while making and breaking tool joints.

Casing lifting eyes are slabback mounted to work in conjunction with

commercially available elevator links (not included). The top drive includes a

rotation lock and rebound prevention circuitry for use when directional

Rig Performance Parameters

TBD prior to order acceptance.

 

Drill rig components will be built in West Chester, PA, USA for deployment to

Alpha Hunter Drilling LLC rig-up yard for integration, set-up and start-up

testing. Schramm will be responsible for functional and initial testing in West

Chester and start-up testing of the rig components listed in the Scope of

Supply at the Alpha Hunter yard in PA, WV or OH (TBD) once the drilling

package is assembled. Alpha Hunter Drilling LLC will be responsible for the

components it supplies.

 

Schramm service technicians and engineers will be on-site during the drilling

of two (2) horizontal wells by Alpha Hunter Drilling personnel in the PA, WV

or OH location of their choosing. Alpha Hunter Drilling LLC will be

responsible for the rig operation.

 

Schramm will train Alpha Hunter Drilling crews in the operation and

maintenance of the drilling rig and will be either on-site or available on a 24/7

basis during the first 6 months after delivery.

It is understood that the T500XD is a prototype drilling rig, and as such, may

require additional testing, extra time for set-up, trouble shooting and field

modifications not typically associated with a production model. Alpha Hunter

Drilling will cooperate and coordinate with Schramm personnel to facilitate

testing and repairs as may be required. Schramm personnel can have

access to the rig when and where appropriate and may bring visitors to either

aid in the repairs or maintenance, or for the purpose of demonstration to

potential customers. Prototype specifications are subject to change and will

be mutually agreed to prior to implementation and may affect final price or

delivery.

Drill rig components will be built in West Chester, PA, USA for deployment to

Alpha Hunter Drilling LLC rig-up yard for integration, set-up and start-up

testing. Schramm will be responsible for functional and initial testing in West

Chester and start-up testing of the rig components listed in the Scope of

Supply at the Alpha Hunter yard in PA, WV or OH (TBD) once the drilling

package is assembled. Alpha Hunter Drilling LLC will be responsible for the

components it supplies.

 

Schramm service technicians and engineers will be on-site during the drilling

of two (2) horizontal wells by Alpha Hunter Drilling personnel in the PA, WV

or OH location of their choosing. Alpha Hunter Drilling LLC will be

responsible for the rig operation.

 

Schramm will train Alpha Hunter Drilling crews in the operation and

maintenance of the drilling rig and will be either on-site or available on a 24/7

basis during the first 6 months after delivery.

It is understood that the T500XD is a prototype drilling rig, and as such, may

require additional testing, extra time for set-up, trouble shooting and field

modifications not typically associated with a production model. Alpha Hunter

Drilling will cooperate and coordinate with Schramm personnel to facilitate

testing and repairs as may be required. Schramm personnel can have

access to the rig when and where appropriate and may bring visitors to either

aid in the repairs or maintenance, or for the purpose of demonstration to

potential customers. Prototype specifications are subject to change and will

be mutually agreed to prior to implementation and may affect final price or

delivery.
