ODEX System

RockForce ODEX (Overburden Drilling Excentric) Systems provide an efficient solution for drilling through unstable or difficult overburden formations while simultaneously advancing the casing.

The ODEX system is an adaptation of the air-circulation DTH hammer and operates with a concentric pilot bit, eccentric reamer and guide device. The guide device engages with a specially designed internal-shouldered casing shoe, allowing the casing to be pulled down as drilling progresses.

During drilling, cuttings are efficiently flushed through the annular space between the guide device and casing shoe and directed to the surface or into a sample collection system.

RockForce offers a comprehensive range of ODEX systems from 3″ to 10″, with system components including:

  • Guide Device
  • Casing Shoe
  • Eccentric Reamer
  • Pilot Bit
  • Guide Sleeve
  • Locking Kits

Complete Range of Drilling Bits

RockForce also supplies a comprehensive range of high-performance drill bits for different drilling methods, ground conditions and applications. The range includes Rotary Bits, DTH Hammer Bits, PDC Bits, Drag Bits, Claw Bits, Air Track Bits, Cable Tool Bits and Core Bits.

Popular sizes and configurations are stocked to help ensure reliable availability and efficient supply to drilling operations.
