Drilling equipment for your geothermal drilling
With the compact ADLER drilling rigs, you can drill geothermal boreholes for a sustainable energy supply with geothermal energy at low cost, even on small and inaccessible private properties. An ADLER geothermal drilling rig makes you a powerful partner for environmentally conscious builders, architects and property owners who are looking for a nearby company that specializes in affordable geothermal drilling. ADLER geothermal drilling rigs are compact, fit through any garden door and can be used for deep geothermal drilling to depths of over 100 meters without taking up much space. The cost of an expensive crane to lift the device over the roof into small gardens is eliminated with this type of geothermal drilling. ADLER drilling rigs for geothermal drilling give you a competitive advantage, making you faster, more flexible and competitive as a provider.
Geothermal drilling as a start for your own energy supply with a geothermal heat pump
The cost of geothermal drilling quickly pays for itself if the effort is calculable and the drilling equipment used for geothermal drilling works efficiently. With ADLER drill bits, you can carry out geothermal drilling quickly, flexibly and powerfully.
The advantages of ADLER geothermal drilling rigs:
- Geothermal drilling in the smallest of spaces: ADLER’s compact drilling rigs can reach depths in small gardens where otherwise only heavier drills can penetrate.
- Easy transportation: You bring your geothermal drilling rig to the site with a normal trailer and drive it through any normal door. The geothermal drill is only extended to its full width at the site.
- Efficient deep drilling: With ADLER geothermal drill bits, you can drill the geothermal probe to a depth of 100 meters or even 150 meters. Exactly as deep as you need.
You can benefit from all these advantages not only when drilling for your geothermal energy but also when drilling a well or for ground exploration. ADLER drilling machines are manufactured in Germany to the highest quality standards and can be used for deep wells up to 150 meters deep, geothermal energy, explosive ordnance detection or other exploratory drilling.
You can choose from the following ADLER well drilling rigs:
Drilling rig B 25
The B 25 all-round drilling rig is ideal for well drilling, geological exploration and ground investigation up to 50 m deep. A powerful all-rounder with many options.
Drilling rig B 50
Professional machine for easy transportation on a 3.5 t trailer. Powerful for many areas of application with extensive options. Ideal for well construction, geothermal drilling and geological exploration drilling up to 100 m deep.
Drilling rig B 75
A 75 diesel hp and Deutz engine with the latest emission level 5 makes this extremely compact drill rig so powerful: With the Adler B 75 drill rig, you can really go deep: up to 125 m are possible! Even if the area available for drilling is extremely limited.
Drilling rig B 75 pro
Ideal for well drilling, geological exploration and dry drilling. The extremely high retraction force of 5 t, the extra-strong mast design and the feed system via lifting cylinders make it possible.
Drilling rig B 200
The compact ADLER B 200 drill rig impresses with its economical, powerful six-cylinder, 6.1 liter Deutz engine and an operating weight of 13 t. The drill rig is designed for demanding applications at greater depths. Whether geothermal drilling, well drilling or geological exploration – the B 200 offers maximum performance and efficiency on any terrain.
With the ADLER compact drilling rigs, geothermal drilling or geological exploratory drilling can be carried out without great effort.
The small dimensions and easy handling make it possible to drill a geothermal borehole in almost any garden. The transport width of the geothermal drill is 80 cm to 95 cm with a height of 195 cm. This means that all plots with normal doors and passages can be accessed. The drilling rigs are equipped with crawler tracks as standard and can therefore even be used on uneven terrain.
ADLER compact drilling rigs: Easy transportation, time saving and high reliability:
You save time and money thanks to the easy transportation of the heat drill units with a simple trailer up to 3.5 t registration (up to B 50) or a truck (from B 50). You only have short set-up times and are quickly ready for use. The investment in a compact ADLER geothermal drilling rig is low compared to its performance, long service life and many efficient application options. The high quality of the equipment and the cathodic dip coating with subsequent powder coating also ensure that you have hardly any maintenance costs. The drill rigs are corrosion-resistant and equipped as standard with a protective device in the area of the rotating rods, which ensures safe handling.
How sustainable is the use of geothermal energy?
There is hardly a more environmentally friendly form of energy for heating buildings of all kinds than geothermal energy. With professional planning and implementation using efficient geothermal drilling equipment and high-quality geothermal probes, a geothermal system works efficiently and trouble-free, energy-efficiently and in a climate-friendly way. This is because geothermal energy is – in the truest sense of the word – a renewable energy source: the sun continuously renews the energy stored in the ground and the energy rising from the depths. This endless energy resource can be used for your home with a geothermal borehole and a heat pump.
Your advantages:
- Geothermal drilling provides you with a climate-neutral source of energy.
- The use of energy is clean and virtually silent.
- You use an energy source that is available on your own property.
- With geothermal drilling, you secure the energy supply for generations.
How deep does a geothermal borehole have to be?
Although the use of geothermal energy is so-called “near-surface geothermal energy”, the geothermal probes must be installed deep in the ground – in contrast to geothermal collectors, which work with a pipe system that is laid horizontally at a depth of 1.5 meters. The depth of the geothermal borehole for the heat probes depends on the heat requirement of the building and the ground conditions. As a rule of thumb, a newly built detached house can be assumed to be approx. 70 m deep. In exceptional cases, it may also be necessary to drill to a depth of 100 m. Where drilling at these depths is not possible because the ground is too hard or rocky, two or more boreholes can be drilled at a shallower depth.
You can calculate the drilling depth you should use for the utilization of geothermal energy with the help of the “extraction capacity”. In ideal ground conditions, this extraction capacity – i.e. the amount of energy that the geothermal probe can extract from the ground – is around 50 watts per meter. If the total heating load of the building is approx. 4,000 watts, the calculation is as follows: 4,000 / 50 = 80. The drilling depth for the geothermal borehole is therefore 80 meters. As explained above, you can also drill two probes in two boreholes with a depth of 40 meters or unevenly distributed one borehole with a depth of 30 meters and one with a depth of 50 meters.
