In this video we assemble a DIY micro drill rig (tiny DC motor + drill bit + frame) and a submersible water pump, then test drilling a small “well” and pumping water through tubing. I explain the mechanism, torque limits, and 3 upgrades for better performance.
[pdf] A soil sample core drill rig is specialized for retrieving core samples, providing detailed information about soil composition and structure. Core sample drilling involves using equipment to extract cylindrical samples of soil or rock, which are crucial for studying subsurface conditions.
[pdf] The first offshore mobile drilling platform was the Breton Rig 20, first operated in 1949. This rig had evolved from the inland drilling barges which were used to drill in marshes and protected waters in up to 10 feet of water. The Breton Rig 20 was 160 feet by 85 feet, and could work in 20 feet water depth.
