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.

Increased availability for Sonic, Geotechnical, and Environmental rigs mobilising from Sydney, Brisbane, and a New Base at Albury-Wodonga, which will help us to provide better service to clients in regional NSW, VIC and ACT.

ALGA's Northern Australia conference kicked off in Darwin today and Legion Drilling is presenting two case studies demonstrating the application of specialised remediation technologies and their benefits in remote sites.

Carbon, nutrients and bacterial amendments injected directly into the subsurface to target contaminants such as petroleum hydrocarbons, chlorinated solvents, and even immobilise PFAS

The new Brisbane Drilling Depot is massive upgrade providing far more space for drill maintenance facilities, improved heavy vehicle access and far more appealing office amenities for the management team

Are these changes a gradual erosion of standards due to competitive pressures, or a recalibration driven by evolving regulations and risk-based assessment?

These activities are subject to groundwater protection standards to prevent contamination and aquifer interference, even when licensing exemptions may apply.

Correct installation of vibrating wire piezometers (VWPs) is critical for reliable pore water pressure data.

With over 30 years of experience starting in electronics and calibration, Wassenaar explains why ground investigation is crucial for construction safety.

Some guidance on when you should take the plunge on a sonic rig for your next drilling program.

Conventional site investigations generate substantial quantities of waste, including contaminated soil, water, PVC wells, and single-use sampling consumables.
