Leading The Industry With Innovation
Three of many aspects Horizontal Well Drillers brings to the industry are automation, safety, and
innovation. These state of the art rigs are almost fully automated. Whether it is the pipe handler,
the hydraulic pipe racks, or the custom hydraulic iron roughneck, the automation of these rigs
decrease floor hand involvement in normal drilling operations while also increasing the speed of
tripping pipe.
HWD strives to provide top-notch safety training and promote the safest working environment.
This starts with the advances that the company has brought to the industry. The automation of
the rigs works to keep hands from dangerous situations found on conventional rigs. It continues
with the hiring and training of each and every employee. Every rig hand is required to take and
pass several safety courses like PEC SafeLand, forklift operation and first aid/CPR. HWD also
supplies to each employee all the necessary tools to facilitate safety, including coveralls, impact
gloves, climbing harnesses, safety glasses, respirators, and hard hats.
Whether the client’s needs are
water-based mud, oil-based
mud, or air drilling as shown
here, Horizontal Well Drillers is
equipped to handle each setup.

Benefits of HWD Technological Advances
Horizontal Well Drillers (HWD) is a provider in contract drilling services. Whatever the client may
need, whether that be deep or shallow wells with long laterals, or conventional vertical wells,
HWD has a perfect drilling solution. Even though these innovative rigs can drill vertical wells
easily and efficiently, HWD puts a major focus in horizontal drilling. By bringing patent-pending
technology to the industry, clients are drilling laterals of over 3,000 ft to 10,000 ft, at depths as
shallow as 250 ft all the way to 10,000 ft deep.
• Major increase in pay zone
• Long horizontal laterals at shallow depths (500 ft)
• Laterals have been successfully drilled out to over 10,000 ft
• ROP (Rate Of Penetration) remains as high as 80% while drilling long laterals
• Top drive - best in class performance - 24,000 ft-lbs of torque
• Wiggle steer technology - allows curves & laterals to be drilled faster
• Range 3 drill pipe with joint length of 45 ft allows for faster trip time (1000 ft - 1400 ft per hour)
• Casing can be run with or without casing crews
• No lay down machines needed
• Can rotate & circulate the hole while tripping pipe or running casing
• No cranes needed for rig up or rig down

HWD Triplex Pumps
In addition to technologically advanced drilling rigs, HWD strives to put in the field the most
capable support equipment for each and every rig. This includes custom mud pump skids
ranging from 1000hp to 1600hp Triplex pumps. These pumps can be run in a single or double
configuration.
These pump skids are easy to hookup and are mounted with camera systems which can be
viewed from the state of the art drilling cabin. This ensures full time monitoring of the pumps to
ensure minimal downtime. Whatever the need of the client may be, HWD has the right pumps to
match the right rig to be successful.
HWD 650 Barrel Mud Pits
HWD rigs come with top of the line 650 barrel mud pits built on a ground bearing trailer,
these pits are fitted with 2 Derrick scalper shakers, Derrick desanders and desilters, and
four 50hp 5x6 centrifugal pumps. Combining these with HWD’s triplex pumps produces a
powerful closed or open loop mud circulating system perfect for any drilling situation.

HWD Truck Fleet
HWD employs its own truck fleet with drivers who are familiar with the compact location and
experienced in moving all of HWD’s rigs. This makes for a quick and efficient rig up and rig down.
Employing a full line of trucks, whether it is winch trucks, triple axle, or double axle, along with a full
fleet of trailers and support equipment, HWD is equipped for efficient and quick rig moves.
With only 8 permitted loads required for a rig move, rigging up and rigging down can be completed
in 1 day. This is also accomplished on the industries smallest rig footprint, which is 200’ x 200’.
