Legion Drilling, a leader in environmental drilling, site investigation, and remediation services across Australia, proudly exhibited and attended the 2025 Eco Forum in Brisbane

Join Legion Drilling Australia as we tackle TCE (Trichloroethylene) contamination head-on in Sydney Australia! Discover how BOS 100®, a Trap & Treat® technology made from high-grade virgin carbons, traps and degrades chlorinated solvents like TCE in groundwater and soil

Legion Drilling was born in Melbourne over 20 years ago, but all rigs relocated to NSW and QLD during COVID. 5 years on, we are back in Victoria! We have permanently established Geoprobe-CPT rig and Geotechnical Drilling rig in Albury - Wodonga. From this new base, we will provide better support to our clients in Melbourne and regional VIC and southern NSW.

At Legion Drilling, we've been at the forefront of sonic drilling in Australia since 2013, and we're thrilled to announce a groundbreaking milestone: the introduction of our new hands-free rod loader on the Geoprobe 8150 drill rig.

Can Shelby tubes provide undisturbed samples of soft soils and tailings? How can we assess sample integrity? Watch this webinar presented by Prof. Jubert Pineda (University of Newcastle) to learn more about sampling soft soils during geotechnical and tailings site investigations.

New addition to our drilling fleet enhances our ability to provide precise, efficient, and reliable solutions for geotechnical engineers

Monitoring groundwater well water is essential for understanding aquifer behaviour, protecting receptors, meeting regulatory obligations

Molecular biological tools offer novel possibilities for many mining, tailings and geo-environmental applications, beyond their better known in environmental remediation. Join Dora Taggart from Microbial Insights USA on Thursday 21 August 2025.

The DT325 Dual Tube soil sampling system is the gold standard for environmental site investigations. It enables rapid collection of continuous, unmixed representative samples, making it one of the most cost-effective methods for site characterisation.

This was a combined geotechnical and environmental site investigation where an external battery was employed to power the cone penetration testing (CPT) system track the rig to other borehole and sampling locations when long CPT dissipation tests were conducted

Ocean Crusaders was the perfect cause for Legion Drilling to support, leveraging our maintenance and logistics infrastructure and expertise from our Brisbane, Sydney, Albury-Wodonga and Townsville branches with their mission of protecting the environment.

 Sonic Drilling Explained: Technology, Benefits, And Industry Use Cases - legion Drilling

Legion Drilling will be at AusIMM’s Mine Waste and Tailings Conference showcasing capabilities for geotechnical and tailings investigations, including sonic drilling, Cone Penetration Testing (CPT), and advanced sampling methods.

Legion Drilling contributed with two papers to the ISC’7, the 7th International Conference on Geotechnical and Geophysical Site Characterization proceedings, which were recently published and made freely available online.

In addition to our Sydney, Brisbane and Townsville depots, we are now also accepting bookings for our new base at Albury-Wodonga, which will help us to provide better service to clients in regional NSW, VIC and ACT.

Are our samples and lab results representative of subsurface conditions? Join Prof. Pineda from University of Newcastle to learn more about best practices and common pitfalls in soil sampling

Legion Drilling is committed to keep servicing the Hunter Valley and Bowen Basin coal regions to the highest standards, supporting responsible mine development, sustainable tailings management, and closure.

Legion Drilling workshops on Site Investigation Technologies exposed contaminated land and geotechnical engineers to pre-packed wells, an alternative to conventional monitoring well systems particularly attractive in potentially contaminated, unstable formations.

Legion Drilling was the major sponsor of ANCOLD’s course on Geotechnical Earthquake Engineering and Liquefaction which attracted an exceptional turnout of geotechnical and tailings engineers travelling from across Australia and internationally to learn from leading experts in the field.
