On-Site Fault Repair Case
A land drilling site using BOMCO F-1300 mud pump reported crosshead jamming and abnormal noise. Inspection revealed worn upper crosshead guide lining (AH1301010402) and damaged double lip oil seals (AH1301010406) due to debris ingress. After replacing the guide, oil seals, and adjusting clearance with shims, the pump resumed normal operation. This aligns with API 7K standards, emphasizing the need for regular guide inspection and debris control.
