Industry Leader in Performance
• Cat 3512B has superior power
density than KTA models
• The QSK60 is a larger,
heavier platform than the
3512B, therefore the 3512B
produces significantly more
power per kilogram, despite
the QSK60 having higher
power per displacement
• The 3512B delivers the most
power per unit of weight when
compared to all competitive
Cummins generator sets of its
class
Superior Ambient Capability
Caterpillar land electric-drive drilling modules are optimized
for the oilfield
• High ambient radiators for oilfield
applications means superior
performance against the
competition
• At 1000m and 50°C, the 3512B
will loose only 3% of rated power
while the QSK60 will loose 8%
and the KTA 50 will loose up to
12%
• At 2000m, the 3512B derate is
only 15% compared to Cummins
with a derate of up to 28%
Unmatched Durability
• Overhaul lives of up to 68,000 hours are experienced in the field
• 12 cylinder arrangement makes overhauling operations more cost
effective when compared to Cummins’ 16 cylinder engines
• Cat engines are designed to be rebuilt at the end of their usable life
• Cat dealers provide deep expertise in remanufacturing of 3500
products
• More than 6,000 units in the field prove the durability of 3512 engines
in land drilling applications
• For more than 30 years, the 3500 engine platform has delivered the
best value to customers through leading performance, reliability, and
durability
Value Overview
• Caterpillar provides the best value land drilling generator sets in
the industry throughout the lifetime of its products
– Industry leading power density that meets the demands of drilling
applications
– Industry competitive fuel efficiency means uncompromised performance
– Long overhaul lives minimize owning and operating cost
• Robust design and construction tailored specifically to land
drilling applications
• Availability of remanufacturing means the lowest owning and
operating costs extended over multiple service lives of Cat products
