Cell phone towers tend to work best when they’re on top of something high (such as mountains), but that height often comes with a lot more wind. Drilling deep foundations for them makes the tower much more stable, cutting down on repair and replacement costs.

When it comes to oil and gas drilling, directional wells have found to be successful in a variety of reservoirs. This includes naturally fractured reservoirs, heavy oil reservoirs, thin reservoirs, and oil reservoirs with water or gas coning characteristics.

In a steam dominated reservoir, a typical geothermal well is going to be drilled with drilling mud, at least to the point above the first anticipated steam entry. Then high pressure air is substituted for the mud (as the mud would plug the pore spaces in the formation, leading to a decreased production of steam).

Directional drilling works great for a variety of projects. This includes everything from work on water mains and sewer lines, to pipeline systems and propane distribution systems.

We understand that the idea of drilling geothermal wells on your property may seem like a larger project than you’d like to undertake. Remember, in many cases, we’re able to drill the wells without destroying your landscape design.

If you have a septic system, be sure to let us know. We will need to drill the well at least the allowable distance away from the tank and the drainage field. Improper placement can result in contaminated water.

Cell phone towers typically need to be very tall to make sure that it can reach the maximum number of people. This is why its very important to drill holes properly into the ground so that the tower will be very stable for its life.

Directional drilling is so versatile, it’s the optimal choice in a wide variety of circumstances. It’s well-suited to and commonly used to install water lines, sewer lines, septic or cesspool connections, geothermal systems, and underground utilities.

After a geothermal well is drilled, in some cases steel pipe (called casing) is then cemented into place. Both the casing and the cement are effective at preventing fluids in different zones from mixing with each other.

In the 1920s, H. John Eastman invented the Eastman Single Shot system. He lowered photographic equipment down a drilled shaft to snap a picture of a plumb bob and compass to determine the angle and direction of the bore.

Did you know that having the proper septic system installed on your property can significantly help increase its value? As such, proper percolation testing needs to be done to determine what type of system will work best on your land.

When it comes to directional drilling, a great degree of trajectory control is needed to drill the well correctly. Also important is the quality of the hole, as well as precise well placement to optimize production and maximize recovery.
