Understanding Submarine Hammer Drilling

Design Features

- Durability Look for pumps made of corrosion-resistant materials, especially if they will be exposed to harsh environments which can cause damage over time.

Another notable benefit is their compatibility with various drill rigs. Many modern drilling machines are designed to accommodate drill rods of different sizes, and a 20mm rod fits well within this spectrum. This compatibility reduces downtime during rig setup and allows for faster transitions between different drilling tasks.

Submarine hammer drilling, often referred to as underwater percussion drilling, is an advanced technique utilized primarily in marine construction and resource exploration. This method combines the principles of traditional drilling with hydraulic and pneumatic operations, enabling the effective penetration of hard substrates beneath the sea floor. In this article, we will explore the processes, equipment, advantages, and applications of submarine hammer drilling.

Before delving into calculations, it's key to understand how a mud pump operates. Most modern drilling rigs use either triplex or duplex pumps, which use a series of pistons to create pressure. The fluid is drawn into the pump from a storage tank and pumped down the drill string. After reaching the drill bit, the mud carries cuttings back up to the surface through the annulus (the space between the drill string and the wellbore).
