We have another video and this one is about some of the most important equipment in core drilling: drill rods, casing and water swivels. Watch this video to learn about the purpose and different types of drill rods used in both conventional and wireline drilling. The video then covers how and why casing shoes and casing are used in regular and deep hole drilling. Finally, the video touches on the topic of water swivels, an important piece of equipment that is not always discussed and explained.
This video and others like it, are great tools and sources of information for employees who are new to the industry. It can also be a good reminder to those who have been working in the industry for a while but want to broaden their knowledge of tools and equipment. Of course, keep in mind that for any questions you may have or drilling challenges you may be facing, our technical support team can provide guidance and advice. Don’t hesitate to contact them because our goal is to improve drilling performance.
