Built for big bores

The Vermeer D130SG2 is engineered to take on Australia’s most demanding trenchless installations. Delivering 130,000 lb of pullback and 58,000 Nm of rotational torque, it provides the muscle required for long bores, large diameter pipe and challenging ground conditions. Advanced automation, a refined drilling system and simplified access for daily servicing help improve productivity while minimising downtime. Inside the cab, intuitive controls and a proven Vermeer design philosophy support consistent performance across major pipeline, energy and civil infrastructure projects.

Features

Plus+1 control system

For precision and reliability, the control system in the D130S has been upgraded to Plus+1. This drill also includes the AutoSteer system, which automates certain drill head motions, helping you to set and adjust rotation duration and direction while maintaining a preset thrust pressure to get through hard ground conditions. This enables drilling consistency. To top it off, the updated console design helps provide a seamless, user-friendly bore path adjustment experience for the operator.

Increased rod-loading capacity

The operator-controlled rod loader helps reduce labour involved with manually loading and unloading drill rod. The stackable rod box increases the rod loading capacity of the D130S, improving overall drilling efficiency by enabling a full set of rods to be loaded into the machine with a touch of a button.

Compact footprint and ease of transport

Machine manoeuvrability is key to navigating tight, narrow jobsites. With a length of 33.5 ft (10.2 m), and width of 8.2 ft (2.5 m), the self-contained, compact design of the D130S allows for convenient transportation, navigability and minimized setup time.

High-powered rotational torque and thrust

Consisting of 130,000 lb (578,200 kN) of thrust and pullback and 15,000 ft-lb (20,337 Nm) of rotational torque, the D130S is able to penetrate through different and difficult terrains efficiently and effectively.

Optional crane

Lesser support equipment is required onsite with the choice of a telescoping crane, thus freeing up more working space. This option can help maximize jobsite productivity by aiding rod box load/unload and manoeuvring large tooling on rig side.
