Risk Assessment and Prevention for Water Well Drilling Operations in Silty Sand Layer Areas

  1. Geological Risk Assessment and Measures-water well drilling rig

 

  • Risks like quicksand, sand gushing, and strata collapse may cause wellbore collapse and equipment damage.
  • Conduct geological surveys before operation to understand silty sand distribution, thickness, and properties, then formulate wellbore protection plans.

 

  1. Equipment Risk Management

 

  • Silty sand severely wears drill components, risking equipment failure.
  • Regularly maintain the drill: inspect vulnerable parts (drill pipes, bits, mud pumps) and replace heavily worn components promptly.

  1. Safety Risk Prevention

 

  • Construction sites face risks of personnel falls and mechanical injuries.
  • Strengthen safety management: set up warning signs, train staff, standardize operation procedures, and provide necessary safety gear to ensure worker safety.water well drilling rig
