BOS 200 Webinar - Activated carbon injection for in-situ remediation
BOS 200® has been implemented in hundreds of sites to effectively treat LNAPL source zones, fuel oxygenates, alcohols, glycols, and cyclic ethers. BOS 200® is a complete system effecting accelerated biodegradation processes on an activated carbon platform that includes
Epic Sonic Drilling Journey
Sydney based R20 Sonic crews have been on a 13 week tour which included quarantine, 4 states, 4 projects and a total of 6400km mobilization. Project requirements included 150mm production bores, Environmental monitoring wells, and Vibrating Wire Piezometers for a Geotechnical client. The rig completed projects in Queensland, South Australia, Northern Territory and New south wales.
Geotechnical drilling on a small scale
Despite its small stature the Geo 205 is still capable of HQ coring to 30m quite comfortably and it automatic SPT hammer ensures safe operation. The tight squeeze is assisted but fully remote control operation allowing the driller to keep well out of harm’s way.
Does your drilling contractor hold the required drillers licence?
The bore shall be constructed by a suitably qualified driller who possess the appropriate experience and the relevant class of licence that the state or territory deem necessary. An appropriately licenced driller shall be on site at all times during bore construction and decommissioning activities.”
Geotechnical and Environmental Testing begins at New Adelaide Women's Hospital
Never a dull day as a drilling contractor. Our drill crews in Adelaide were part of the government PR machine this week undertaking a deep groundwater monitoring program
R01 - Our first Geoprobe returns to service after full rebuild and upgrade.
Geoprobe 6620 (R1) returns to service in 2020 after a full refit and upgrade by the Numac maintenance and engineering team. View a short video of the results.
Sustainable site investigation with Direct Sensing Tools (HRSC)
At this point, 20+ years into the development of direct sensing technology there have been a multitude of arguments presented touting the technical and financial advantages of High-Resolution Site Characterisation (HRSC) using Membrane Interface Probe (MIP), Ultra-Violet Optical Screening Tool (UVOST) and Hydraulic Profiling Tool (HPT).
Legion Drilling now in Townsville with Geoprobe 7822DT
To better service north QLD clients we now have a Geoprobe 7822Dt operating from a satellite base in Cairns Australia.
A typical day at Legion Drilling Services Australia!
This short video is a small window into what kinds of drilling projects are going on at Numac on any given day. As a tier 1 drilling contractor we can provide high quality drilling services including Sonic, remote access diamond coring, geotechnical, overwater and contaminated land investigations with Geoprobe machines.
Resto-mod of Geoprobe 6620 Environmental drill rig
This is what a Geoprobe 6620 looks like stripped down to its component parts. Our fitters have recently commenced a complete overhaul and upgrade of “R1” our Geoprobe track mounted drilling rig.
Take a look at our high volume chemical injection unit
Numac has over 10 years experience in chemical injection for the purpose of in-situ chemical oxidation/reduction (ISCO/R). This system seen in this video is the result of 10 years of deveopment and continual improvement of the process.
Geotechnical Rig Update - MCT450P
This highly capable truck mounted geotechnical rig was commissioned in late January 2018. It's immediately proving a big hit with our clients combining great mobility and speed of operation.
Introducing the MiHPT -
The new probe detects volatile contaminants with the MIP, measures soil electrical conductivity with a standard (MIP) dipole array, and measures HPT injection pressure using the same down-hole transducer as the Geoprobe® stand-alone HPT system.
Sonic mineral exploration for Nickel Laterite
Numac recently completed a mineral exploration drilling program with a sonic rig in unconsolidated formations for Nickel Laterite.
Killer New Ride!
Our new Volvo FH13 540 Prime Mover looking smart in the her new skin. With the large distances we move rigs each year it is certainly nice to know that have reliable, safe and comfortable equipment making these long road-trips comfortable fro the drill crews.
Sydney Harbour Overwater Sonic Drilling
One of the highlights of 2017 was being involved in the Sydney Metro Geotechnical investigation in Sydney Harbour. Numac was presented with an opportunity to use one of our Sonic drill rigs from an overwater in close proximity to the Harbour Bridge.
