Planning for a Drill Campaign
This is a brief webinar that covers the many aspects that go into planning and executing a successful drill campaign. ‘Drill Campaign’ is an all-encompassing term used to include diverse drilling methods and program objectives. Drill methods might include direct-push, cable tool, mud rotary, rotasonic, hollow-stem auger, reverse circulation or diamond core methods. All of these methods have certain planning elements in-common. These elements include fuel and water, supplies, site security, logistics, materials handling, site safety, access and egress, utilities, transportation and personnel considerations. It is the intent of this webinar to share real-world, tactical and practical experience and advice to assist an aspiring or seasoned geologist to get a better grasp on planning a drill campaign.
