Well construction projects require powerful yet compact equipment that performs reliably in demanding environments. NORDMEYER TECHNOLOGIES GmbH uses Dynaset solutions, including the DYNASET HKR 11000 Hydraulic Screw Compressor, in airlift drilling and mobile drilling applications where integration, flexibility, and reliability are essential. The compressor delivers up to 11,000 l/min (388 cfm) of compressed air at a maximum pressure of 10 bar (145 psi), ensuring consistent airflow for demanding operations.

Nordmeyer specializes in geothermal drilling and well construction projects. Their work often takes place in open fields, open-pit sites, and densely populated areas where equipment must be compact, efficient, and easy to integrate into mobile drilling rigs. In such environments, space is limited and operational reliability is critical. 

Reliable Compressed Air for Airlift Drilling 

In well construction projects, compressed air plays a central role in airlift drilling operations. The system must deliver continuous and stable airflow to ensure consistent lifting performance, even at greater depths.

The DYNASET HKR 11000 converts the hydraulic power of the drilling rig into compressed air for demanding airlift drilling operations. 

One of the key components in Nordmeyer’s setup is the DYNASET HKR Hydraulic Screw Compressor. The compressor converts the hydraulic power of the drilling rig directly into compressed air, eliminating the need for a separate standalone compressor unit.  

By integrating the compressor directly onto the rig, Nordmeyer benefits from reduced installation complexity, optimized space usage, and improved operational flexibility.  

“The HKR 11000 is indispensable for large airlift drilling operations in well construction. We appreciate the compact design, easy installation, and high reliability. The equipment also enables significant time savings and improves the efficiency of our projects.” — Jan-Henrik Schubert, Sales Manager, NORDMEYER TECHNOLOGIES GmbH 

Supporting Equipment for Efficient Site Operations

Nordmeyer regularly uses the DYNASET HPW 220/30 Hydraulic High Pressure Water Pump to clean drilling rigs. The pump is equipped with a washing gun and hose reel, enabling efficient cleaning directly from the rig’s hydraulic system. Keeping equipment clean improves operational safety and helps maintain performance in dusty and muddy conditions.

DYNASET HG Hydraulic Generator integrated into the drilling rig, supplying electricity directly from the hydraulic system.

Depending on the rig configuration, Nordmeyer typically uses either the DYNASET HG 6.5 kVA or the DYNASET HG 10 kVA Hydraulic Generator, providing electricity directly from the drilling rig’s hydraulic system. This integrated approach supports efficient site operations without relying on separate external power units.

Practical Advantages in Demanding Environments 

According to Nordmeyer, the key advantages of Dynaset equipment in well construction projects include: 

  • Compact design 
  • Easy installation 
  • High reliability 
  • Significant time savings 
  • Improved overall project efficiency 

In demanding drilling environments, these factors directly impact uptime, logistics, and cost control. Integrated hydraulic solutions help streamline operations and reduce the complexity of mobile drilling systems.
