The document proposes an investment in a new drilling tool called the "Drilling Tool Bogomolov". It is designed for mining rotary drilling machines to drill blast holes with a square cross-section. This would increase mining efficiency and reduce costs for coal mining companies. The tool would also provide a new product for manufacturers. The proposal outlines technical details of the tool, market analysis, implementation plan over 4 stages, and anticipated economic benefits including a positive net present value and internal rate of return. Over $1 million in investment is requested to develop and commercialize the new drilling tool.

«Drilling tool Bogomolov»
The subject area of the project:
Branch - mechanical engineering;
It specializes in drill bits manufacturing for quarry machines rotary drilling;
The ultimate consumer of the finished product - mining enterprises of the coal industry that carry out
opencast mining.
Problem:
The project is able to resolve the following issues in two industries.
Mining industry:
- High costs of drilling and blasting works during mining of coal by open method, in particular
the cost of explosives.
The engineering industry:
- No ability to offer innovative tool that allows to reduce costs in drilling and blasting
operations.
Technical solution and product:
«Drilling tool Bogomolov» is a drilling tool designed for mining rotary drilling machines that
helps to form a blast hole of square cross-section.
Product line:
- Cutting roller bit for the rock hardness of 6-9 on a Protodyakonov M.M. scale;
- Tricone rock bits for the rock hardness of 9-16 on a Protodyakonov M.M. scale;
- Dvohsotrichchya dilators for the rock hardness of 9-16 on a Protodyakonov M.M. scale.
Technical efficiency of «Drilling tool Bogomolov»:
- Increases the volume of blasted rock mass by 10%;
- Increases the yield of rock mass per one meter of the well by 10%;
- Increases the size of the well grid by 10%;
- Reduces of consumption of explosives in blasting operations by 10%;
- Reduces in drilling volumes by 10%.
Economic efficiency of «Drilling tool Bogomolov»:
- Decreases the monthly costs on explosives by 10%;
- Reduces the cost of drilling and blasting operations by 7%;
- Annual economic effect in case of one drilling rig operation is $138345,86.
Intellectual property protection:
There have been registered 8 items of intellectual property. In the future, during the
implementation of the project, all technical developments such as utility models and inventions will be
patented.
Marketing project:
There had been carried out a research that has revealed following principles of the opencast
mining market:
- 55% of coal in the world is extracted by the open way;
- 4325,6 million tons of coal were mined in the world in an open way in 2012;
- 251,8 million tons of coal was extracted in the open way on the territory of the Russian
Federation in 2014;
- 60 thousand bits were manufactured in the territory of the Russian Federation, mainly for the
domestic market;
- $481 is the average cost of commercial bit (size 215,9 mm);

- $962 is the average cost of «Drilling tools Bogomolov»;
- $0,03 billion is the approximate volume of the commercial drilling tool market in the
Russian Federation;
- $0,5 billion is the approximate volume of the commercial drilling tool global market.
Changes in volumes of coal extraction are not expected. Therefore, level of drilling tool sales
will remain at the current level.
Implementation plan:
The project is divided into the following stages:
Stage #1 - completed:
- Theoretical and laboratory evaluation of the effectiveness;
- Development of the tool design documentation.
Stage #2 - 12 months:
- «Drilling tool Bogomolov» pilot batch production;
- Industrial tests performance;
- Completion of the construction.
Stage #3 - 12 months:
- Development of small-series production of the drilling tool;
- Development of an expanded product line;
- Licensing of manufacturers developed intellectual property.
Stage #4 - 12 months:
- Mastering of «Drilling tool Bogomolov» serial production;
- Licensing of manufacturers by developed intellectual property.
Business model:
The project is possible after creation of the «Technical integration engineering center».
The average number of staff in organization will be 7 employees.
The team to implement the project is already fully formed.
Monetization of the project:
1. Engineering services.
- Structural static and dynamic analysis of machine parts and mechanisms;
- Design and development of mining equipment;
- Consulting and selection of mining equipment.
2. Licensing of manufacturers by developed intellectual property.
- Licensing on solutions for "Drilling tool Bogomolov";
- Licensing on solutions for series of drilling tools.
Economic indicators:
Realization of the project requires investments in the amount of $1178710. Distribution of investment
according to the project stages is shown in Table 1.
