Cost-effective operation
The costs per performed production unit can be optimized either by in-
creasing the hourly output or by reducing the costs per hour of operation.
Liebherr rotary drilling rigs optimally combine both aspects through their
exceptional performance and the low operational costs.
Well proven components
All applied components are designed for reliability and longevity in order
to reduce periods of standstill and minimize repair costs. In addition to
their excellent performance, Liebherr diesel engines are outstanding in
their economical consumption.
Low maintenance requirements through versatile on-board hydraulics
Thanks to the powerful diesel engines additional power packs have be-
come redundant. This reduces service costs by half and saves even more
fuel. All equipment such as rotary drives as well as casing oscillators can
be operated by the on-board hydraulics. Moreover, the permanently lubri-
cated components of the undercarriage enormously reduce maintenance
requirements.
Platform solution
A platform solution was implemented during the development of the
Liebherr rotary drilling rigs. Thus, a large number of shared components,
e.g. uppercarriage, kinematics or leader, could be achieved. Many stand-
ard components originally come from the product range of the proven
piling and drilling rigs as well as duty cycle crawler cranes. All classes of
rotary drilling rigs are identical in their operation.
