Foremost DR24HD

The DR-24HD (‘heavy-duty’) features a heavy-duty gear-driven lower drive, which generates two and a half times the torque of the standard DR-24. The DR-24HD is also configured with a heavy-duty mast to withstand the additional torque and larger hoist cylinders for increased pullback capabilities. The DR-24HD is most commonly used in deep, large diameter applications such as municipal/industrial wells and mine de-watering.

Foremost DR24

The Foremost Dual Rotary drill features a unique lower rotary drive that is used to advance steel cashing through unconsolidated overburden, such as sand, gravel, glacial till, and boulders. Pullback, pulldown and rotational forces are effectively transmitted to the casing via high-strength steel jaws with carbide inserts. An independent rotary to-drive simultaneously handles a drill string equipped with a down-the-hole hammer, drag bit, or roller cone bit. Cuttings are typically evacuated with air, but the Foremost DR-drills can also be configured with pumps for mud or flooded reverse circulation drilling. The Top and lower drives feed independently, meaning that the bit position can vary relative to the bottom of the casing. Once the desired casing depth has been achieved, the DR continues drilling open-hole like conventional top-drive drill. With a Foremost DR-drill, there is no need to trip out or change tools when transitioning to open-hole drilling. The Foremost DR24 is a top-class rig that our crew has perfected their use of.
