Auger Drilling
Auger drilling is done with a helical screw which is driven into the ground with rotation; the earth is lifted up the borehole by the blade of the screw. Hollow stem auger drilling is used for softer ground such as swamps where the hole will not stay open by itself for environmental drilling, geotechnical drilling, soil engineering and geochemistry reconnaissance work in exploration for mineral deposits. Solid flight augers/bucket augers are used in harder ground construction drilling. In some cases, mine shafts are dug with auger drills. Small augers can be mounted on the back of a utility truck, with large augers used for sinking piles for bridge foundations.
Auger drilling is restricted to generally soft unconsolidated material or weak weathered rock. It is cheap and fast.
Why Choose Us?
WE REALLY LOVE WHAT WE DO & OUR WORK ON EVERY PROJECT TRULY REFLECTS THAT..
With years of experience and knowledge behind our team, BDECL Services are experts in the application of dual wall reverse circulation methods. In extreme drilling conditions of this technique, our experience will offer the maximum sample recovery achievable. Major advantages of this include:
- Recovery of uncontaminated samples in high water bearing formation
- Faster penetration than standard rotary or core drilling
- Lower costs due to increased production
- Reduced bit and mud consumable costs
- No lost circulation even through fractures, voids and joints
- No surface casing as the outer pipe supports the bore hole while circulation is maintained internally.
- Straighter holes with flush joint pipe while drilling with RC.
