ABSTRACT:
Disclosed herein is a transportable cooling system for cooling drilling mud in the course of drilling for geothermal sources or deep well drilling. The cooling system includes a mud carrying radiator provided with a water sprinkler assembly and fan for cooling the exterior thereof. Both the water sprinklers and the fans are controllable in their rate in response to a signal combining the well outlet temperature. In this manner cooling demands of a well bore can be anticipated, allowing for deep well drilling.
