ECA trainers Joe Kinworthy and Jason Church tapped into 45 years' of collective drilling rig experience to help operators from several foundation drilling contractors improve safety and productivity. The course focused on such topics as drilling rig stability, safe operation, ground conditions, safe working platforms, productivity, and new technology.

"Drilling rig accidents often bring dire consequences," said corporate director of parts and service Dave Schell. "If we can help to prevent even one tragedy for our customers, this program will be a success."

ECA can host a customised Bauer training session at its headquarters or at its customer's own locations.
