Boart Longyear
Main business sectors: Water supply drilling services, pump services and mine dewatering
Exhibiting/launching/announcing: Boart Longyear has unique and extensive water drilling technical expertise, providingmine dewatering, water supply drilling, rotary drilling and pump services. The company offers a range of large, advanced and reliable rigs for the industry.
One of the innovative solutions Boart Longyear offers is the dual-tube flooded reverse (DTFR) drilling process, which uses dedicated dual-wall drill pipe and drilling fluid along with the injection of air in order to drill large-diameter holes. Using DTFR, fluids always circulate inside the dual-tube pipe and can't escape into the formations. Instead of maintaining fluids at the surface and circulating throughout the wellbore, DTFR generally drills with the borehole fluids at their naturally occurring level.
Boart Longyear Drilling Services operates the exclusive LR90H horizontal drilling rig for mine dewatering. This FOPS Level II-certified rig drills a hole at a 5° angle for self-draining dewatering - directly against a high-wall face for the best productivity. This electric rig offers hands-free rod handling and can drill 152-182 m (500-600ft) in a shift.

Eijkelkamp SonicSampDrill and Eijkelkamp North America
Main business sectors: Sonic drilling and sampling, groundwater investigation, and soil and water monitoring
Exhibiting/launching/announcing: Eijkelkamp SonicSampDrill, together with Eijkelkamp North America, will introduce several new products at the upcoming Groundwater Week show, including the SRS PL SmallRotoSonic, with a weight of only 7,275lbs (3,300kg). The rig has the ability to reach confined spaces that were previously impossible for the larger sonic models to access. This SRS PL is a solution for clients that have been struggling with capabilities of direct-push technology.
CRS XL DUO CompactRotoSonic is a multipurpose sonic rig, which can be used for sonic drilling, but also for conventional rotary up to 1,100rpm. This option is available on all drill rig models, except for the SRS PL SmallRotoSonic.
Eijkelkamp SonicSampDrill is now also offering a combination of a sonic rig (or conventional) with 20t (44,000lbs) cone penetration testing (CPT) capability.
While at the show, the company will introduce a new version of the DrillTracker management software for drilling companies. The updated software provides improved features, such as a calculation tool on project profitability. The software can make borehole logging and all necessary project information readily available to drillers. In the next months, SonicSampDrill will introduce an app for iOS and Android for mobile and off-line availability of the software.
