In a competitive market, Schramm’s Fury 130 drill rig stands out thanks to its strength and efficient fuel use compared to similar rigs. A split-shaft engine that decouples the rig’s air and hydraulic power systems reduces the truck-mounted rig’s fuel usage. Schramm vice-president of sales Craig Mayman called this a unique solution that not only increases efficiency but gives the rig a combined 1,200 horsepower, compared to the 800 horsepower available from similar models. The rig also features 130,000 pounds of pullback capacity (the force applied when a rig recovers the drill string from the borehole) – dwarfing Schramm’s previous top performing truck-mounted rig, the T685, which could handle up to 93,700 pounds. Additionally, it has 32,000 pounds of pulldown capacity (the downward pressure applied to a drill string). Mayman also highlighted the rig’s electrical control system, which includes an emergency shut-off system and onboard fault diagnosis assistance for increased safety.
