In November 2024, Luis, an orchard contractor in Jalisco, Mexico, submitted a purchase request to YG Machinery. He said he was experiencing increased drought and high irrigation costs, and that the surrounding area had abundant groundwater resources that were difficult to utilize due to a lack of efficient and reliable well drilling equipment. He had tried to rent a traditional large drilling rig, but it was cumbersome, difficult to transfer, and costly. After learning about our portable water drilling machine, he contacted us to seek cooperation.
Luis gave us feedback after the trial: “This machine is small in size, easy to transport, and can be taken away by one vehicle; the drilling can be completed by two operators. We drilled three wells in five days and solved the irrigation problem of more than ten hectares of orchards.” This is one of the reasons why portable drilling rigs are becoming more and more popular among small agricultural operators in Mexico.
This portable water drilling machine is powered by gasoline power system, which is suitable for operation in remote areas. The main machine is compact and flexible in disassembly, which is convenient for transportation and transit. Its key parameters are as follows:

The machine can work with mud pump or air compressor, which can be freely switched according to different geological conditions, reducing construction risks and improving drilling efficiency. The whole structure of the machine has been treated with anti-rust treatment, adapting to the high temperature and humid environment in Mexico, easy maintenance and suitable for long-term use.
In recent years, water resources in the northern and central regions of Mexico have been tightly deployed, and small-scale growers are generally faced with the dilemma of “not being able to get water”. Traditional well-drilling methods rely on leased machinery, slow scheduling, high costs, and some remote areas can not even be connected to the case of Luis is not an exception, similar users in agricultural irrigation, ranching, drinking water, countryside, and other scenarios have a similar demand.
Many users want to have a simple operation, cost-controlled small drilling equipment. They are more concerned about the small borewell machine price than the large drilling rigs that often cost millions of dollars. portable drilling rigs stand out in this context.
The Solution Provided by YG Portable Drilling Machine
To meet the user’s needs, we focused on optimizing the structure weight and function integration when designing this portable water drilling machine. Luis’s working area is mainly clay and gravel, and some areas are wet, which makes it impassable to use a large vehicle-mounted drilling rig, and also increases the cost of fuel consumption. We equipped him with a small mud pump system to improve the efficiency of slag discharge and ensure the smooth completion of the drilling.
In addition, Luis was able to select a different type of drill bit from the geological test results before each drill. Adjustable drilling speeds, a powerful downward pressure system, and a reliable hydraulic transmission allow the machine to operate for more than 12 hours with virtually no failures. Compared with the common portable borehole drilling machine in the market, our machine is more adaptable and efficient at the same price.
These small borehole drilling machines are widely used in:
Orchard and vegetable greenhouse irrigation system well construction.
Drilling wells for rural construction foundation.
Drinking water facilities in livestock breeding areas.
Emergency water supply wells for schools and communities.
More than 20 Mexican customers have purchased this product. They generally say that this equipment is flexible in transportation and easy to operate and train, even workers without mechanical experience can get started using it. Some users have shown their results on social media platforms and said they plan to use the equipment for well drilling projects on neighboring farms.
