Breakthrough directions of rock core drilling rig technology in shale gas development

Growing shale gas demand leaves much room for rig technology breakthroughs.rock core drilling rig

 

  1. Enhancing ultra-deep drilling: Develop rigs for deeper formations (over 5,000m) to tap deep shale gas resources.
  2. Miniaturization and portability: Create smaller, lighter rigs for complex terrains and tight spaces.
  3. Integrating green technologies: Embed eco-friendly designs to cut waste and energy use, enabling green exploration.

 

These directions will better meet shale gas needs, supporting sustainable energy development.rock core drilling rig
