EMAS drilling is a completely manual DIY drilling method for making your own borehole. You can produce your personal drillset without the need for complex parts or tools. Relatively deep wells can be made.
For more information on construction and use of the drillset have a look at the videos by EMAS: / emasbolivia
If you have questions you can post them below or send us a request via our website: www.wot.utwente.nl/en/about-t...

I'm blown away by the efficiency of this system. It's absolutely remarkable and these techniques for drilling Wells need to be preserved and spread far and wide. Water is a huge challenge for human beings and any cost-effective method that doesn't require electricity and can be done almost anywhere is super valuable to human beings.

I hand dug a well at my new shop 3 years ago 40 ft deep and I put a 6 in casing with 1 3/4 pipe in side of it I filled with 57 stone after my 6 in pipe and red clay at the top to seal it it took me 3 days by myself and there was about 10 on lookers watching me I know they were talking junk about how crazy I was till I hooked my pump up and sprayed the water hose in a Rainbow style with 60PSI on the pump for an hour just to show I really hit water And a lot !! Thanks for the video I'm in north Carolina red clay county and let me tell u got to be young at hear its really hard work just my 2 cent !! By myself I might add !!

I guessing you left out some details or I'm calling bullshit! A 6" diameter hole in the ground 40 feet filled with water; that water would weigh 480 pounds! How were you able to push that kind of weight to the surface by hand? Even a smaller column of water as used in the video is the big limiting factor of a well 300 feet as they suggest is possible. That's water weight. A thick mud slurry like they suggest weighs even more with every inch in diameter or depth. Think of your 6" pipe as a plastic liter bottle about a foot tall. Now lift that bottle to stack another bottle under it. Lift those two to stack a 3rd under . Then lift all three to stack the 4th. Continue until your lifting a stack of 40 to slide the 41st bottle below and you will understand the gravity of the situation. Literally! I'm not saying it's impossible but it's impractical with the limits of the tools shown here.

@@tenlittleindians You're not lifting the water, though - you're inputting water at the bottom of the water column to "flush" out debris. I agree that there is a limit on how deep you can go based off the pressure required to input additional water at the bottom of the column; but, if you were to replace the water hose here with a power washer, that'd get you considerably more distance. You might want to understand basic physics before spouting off, because there is a huge difference between your analogy of "lifting water", and the actual issue here of "back pressure" on a water output, at the bottom of a water column.

@tenlittleindians 11 ай бұрын
@@jcpt928 To inject it in the bottom requires the same force as lifting the column of water! Were you unaware how it's calculated? And using a high pressure pump ain't exactly "digging it by hand" anymore. Your "flushing it out" story doesn't hold water. (See what I did there? It's known as a play on words) How are you going to "simply" flush it out? You either need to lift all the casing to create an opening at the bottom or your back to pumping water down the casing which requires pushing that water somewhere once the casing is full. (Back out the top under the full pressure that I previously calculated) I suggest you visit a local grade school and see if one of the nice teachers can take some time away from a toddler to help you brush up on your limited capacity for simple basic math.

Decades ago, my well driller showed up with his huge truck-mounted drill rig. He reminded me of the price per foot for dirt (cheaper), and the price per foot for rock (more expensive). His drill bit was placed on the ground, and it made a ONE-HALF TURN and clunked into bedrock. The driller looked at me and said, "I guess it's rock all the way down." 302 feet of solid rock, but 10 gallons per minute total flow. So a nice reliable well and the pump is 30 years old and never been out yet. PS. U of Twente, I like your on-line SDR. Very very nice, and much appreciated.

Well you would have to install a valve just behind the drill head that can be opened from the top ... with say a pull string . But the drill pipe is full of the mud slurry being pumped down to bring up sand and other material outside the pipe. Which I doubt it could lift rock chunks .

You should mention that it will not drill through gravel larger than the inlet, it does not reach a high velocity that would overcome slip velocity. The pressure of the mud caused by the process can stop up the aquifer. There are other problems as well, but the process has been used in Bangladesh (without the pump) to drill as deep as 1000 feet and is more than 1000 years old. When drilling without the pump the process is called sludging in most of the world.
@WOT_utwente
@WOT_utwente Жыл бұрын
Hi, you are correct, this is a sludging method. Also the pressurised drilling fluid can indeed clog up the aquifer, this is exactly the reason why we need to thoroughly develop the well. About the gravel: the emas drill set will not lift up gravel. However, because of the shape of the drill head it is sometimes possible that gravel is pressed into walls of the borehole such that the drilling can continue.
@RcCrawfordwellinventions
@RcCrawfordwellinventions Жыл бұрын
@@WOT_utwente It is unlikely that the drill will force gravel into a wall of gravel. It is more likely that the bit will bypass the gravel and lock up the drill stem or keep the casing and screen from going full depth.. It is impossible to clear up a well that you cannot inspect for sieve size or for cake. Even using a mechanical rig, the aquifer can be stopped up several feet belong the centerline of the borehole. The direct circulation process can force thixotropic mud into course materials. Thixotropic muds are liquid when in motion and set to a solid when motionless. The small diameter diameter you are using is not capable the high velocity needed to properly release the thixotropic mud.
