Series of Drawworks

The JC series drawworks span input power from 150 kW on the JC08 to 600 kW on the JC28/11, with maximum fast-line pull on the second drum layer from 80 kN to 280 kN. Main drums take 22, 29 or 32 mm line and turn 450 rpm across the range, with drum diameters growing from 345 by 590 mm on the JC08 to 580 by 1012 mm on the JC28/11, and brake cooling stepping from air cooling on the smaller units to forced water circulation on the large builds. Auxiliary YJC and ZJC drums extend the range to rope capacities of 1200 to 3000 m and wireline drums up to 7500 m, covering the main hoist, the sand drum and the wireline line on one drawworks family.

Application

Where this equipment is used.

  • Hoisting duty across rig classes: JC08 at 150 kW input up to the JC28/11 at 600 kW with 280 kN fast-line pull.
  • Main drum line sizes of 22, 29 or 32 mm at 450 rpm across the range.
  • Brake cooling from air cooling on the small units to forced water circulation on the large builds.
  • Sand-drum and wireline-drum duty through the YJC and ZJC auxiliaries, up to 7500 m wireline capacity.
  • Retrofit and new-build supply for rig, workover and drilling drivetrains.
  • Continuous heavy hoisting on deep wells where pull and drum capacity set the envelope.

Buyer questions

Frequently asked about this equipment.

Questions about the drawworks series start with input power, drum capacity and the rig classes they serve.

What is the core function of Drawworks in oilfield operation?

The JC series drawworks is the hoisting unit of drilling and workover rigs: it trips the drill string, runs casing, holds back during drilling and lifts downhole tools. Input power spans 150 kW on the JC08 to 600 kW on the JC28/11, with maximum fast-line pull on the second drum layer from 80 kN to 280 kN on 22, 29 or 32 mm line at 450 rpm, which sets the hoisting envelope the mast and hook are matched to.

What are the differences between different series of drawworks?

Mechanical drawworks feature simple structure and low cost, suitable for conventional shallow and medium well workover; DC electric drawworks have stable speed regulation performance for medium-deep well drilling; AC VFD drawworks achieve higher precision and intelligent control, adapting to ultra-deep well and complex high-pressure working conditions.

How does the drawworks ensure operation safety during heavy-load hoisting?

Each drawworks carries a primary service brake and an electromagnetic eddy-current secondary brake, so holding, speed control and emergency stop are on separate circuits. Overload protection and interlock monitoring trip the drive before the hoist reaches its rating, which is the protection that prevents runaway and dropped string on heavy pulls.

Can the drawworks adapt to extreme harsh oilfield environments?

Yes. All series products adopt full-climate optimized design, with anti-corrosion, dust-proof and weather-resistant protective structure. Core components resist low-temperature cold and high-temperature aging, realizing stable continuous operation at -40℃ ~ +55℃, fully adapting to desert, Gobi, mountain and high-altitude oilfield working conditions.

Can parameters and configurations be customized for special working conditions?

Yes. The configuration is settled against the rig class before the order: input power (JC08 at 150 kW through JC28/11 at 600 kW), drum and line size, brake cooling (air or forced water circulation), and the auxiliary sand and wireline drums are matched to the well programme, then written into the quotation and the factory test report.
