Choosing a water well drill rig starts with depth, hole diameter, and site access. YG Machinery offers water well drill rigs from 100 to 200 m, including the 150 kg portable YG-240. The YG-130, YG-180, and YG-200 cover 130–200 m, while the YG-240 is a 100 m machine designed for lighter work. Models differ in opening diameter, power, weight, and transport size.
Water Well Drill Rig Technical Parameters
| Model | Drilling Depth | Opening Diameter | Final Hole Diameter | Pipe Diameter | Power | Weight |
| YG 130 | 130 m | 220 mm | 75 mm | 42 60 mm | 13.2 kW | 920 kg |
| YG 180 | 180 m | 220 mm | 75 mm | 42 60 mm | 13.2 kW | 950 kg |
| YG 200 | 200 m | 325 mm | 75 mm | 42 60 mm | 14.7 kW | 1150 kg |
YG-130 and YG-180 share a 220 mm opening and 13.2 kW power. The YG-200 reaches 200 m and opens up to 325 mm, with 14.7 kW. All three use 42–60 mm drill pipes and finish with a 75 mm final hole.
The standard drill pipe inclination is 75–90°. The YG-130 and YG-180 measure 2400×950×1400 mm, while the YG-200 measures 2700×950×1770 mm.
Portable Water Well Drilling Rig YG-240
The YG-240 drills to 100 m and supports an opening diameter of 80–220 mm. It uses Φ51 mm × 1.5 m drill pipes, a 4 kW motor, and a 2.2 kW pump. The voltage is 220 V.
It weighs 150 kg and measures 700×700×2500 mm. Its foldable structure makes it easier to move between sites, especially where access is limited.
Which YG Model Fits Your Site?
Start with your well depth.
For wells around 100 m, the YG-240 is the first model to check. For 130 m, 180 m, or 200 m, compare the YG-130, YG-180, and YG-200. The YG-200 is the choice when you need a larger 325 mm opening.
Also consider transport, power supply, and formation. Depth alone is not enough.
Ground Conditions and Drilling Setup
A rig rated for 200 m does not mean every 200 m well will drill the same way. Clay, sand, gravel, and hard rock create different resistance and cuttings-removal conditions.
A rocky site may need different drill bits, drill pipes, or an air compressor. A mud pump must also match the hole depth, diameter, and circulation distance.
Tell us what formation you expect before ordering so the drilling tools and auxiliary equipment can be checked with the rig.
When Portability Matters
The YG-240 weighs only 150 kg and folds for transport. If your wells are spread across a rural area or the access road is narrow, moving a 920–1150 kg rig can become a major job.
The YG-240 makes site-to-site movement easier. Still, include mud pumps, air compressors, drill pipes, and other tools in your transport plan.
Before delivery, check the site access, unloading space, and available power supply.
How to Choose Your Rig
Check these points before you choose:
- Well depth: Match the required depth with the rig’s rated drilling depth.
- Hole diameter: Check the opening and final hole sizes.
- Formation: Confirm whether the site has clay, sand, gravel, or hard rock.
- Power: Check the available voltage and required motor power.
- Transport: Review road access, loading conditions, and space for auxiliary equipment.
For about 100 m, look at the YG-240 first. For 130–200 m, compare the YG-130, YG-180, and YG-200.
The YG-240 uses 220 V, while the other models are rated at 13.2–14.7 kW. If you need a special power configuration, confirm it before ordering.
Water Well Drilling Applications
These rigs are used for agricultural water wells, rural water supply, and groundwater extraction.
Some projects stay in one location. Others require the rig to move between several wells. For scattered wells and narrow roads, a compact rig can reduce handling work.
For deeper wells or hard formations, focus more on drilling capacity, drill tools, and auxiliary equipment.

FAQ
Which water well drill rig should I choose for a 100 m well?
For a 100 m well, start with the YG-240. It weighs 150 kg and folds for transport, making it easier to move than the 920–1150 kg models.
Is the YG-200 suitable for a large-diameter opening?
Yes. The YG-200 has a maximum opening diameter of 325 mm and a rated drilling depth of 200 m. If you need a specific final hole size, check the complete drilling setup before ordering.
Does a 200 m rating mean the rig can always drill 200 m?
Not necessarily. Ground hardness, drill tools, cuttings removal, and drilling conditions affect actual performance. A hard-rock site may need different tools and auxiliary equipment.
Can I request a different voltage or power configuration?
If your site has a special power requirement, mention it in your inquiry. We can check the available configuration for your project.
