Basic Principle of Sonic Drilling

VIBRATORY FORCE ROTARY FORCE AXIAL FORCE OR ‘FEED’ FORCE

  • E

  • steady

Principles of Sonic Drilling

  • High-speed eccentric counter-rotating rollers
  • High-frequency low-amplitude mechanical vibration with

rotation & down-pressure.

  • Resonance occurs - vibrations coincide with the natural

resonate frequency of the drill string - resonant energy is delivered to and focused at the bit face.

  • Borehole advancement a result of shearing & displacement.

  • Speed

 2-4 times faster than conventional drilling

  • Superior Information (continuous core sample)

 Lithology/geochemistry/hydrogeology

  • Waste Minimization

 ~ 70% less IDW than conventional drilling methods due to cased hole  Ability to ”dry ” drill

  • Better Well Construction

 Less development time/better yield

  • Safer and Cleaner

 No flights – just smooth drill tooling  Elevated platform

  • No refusal

 Drills through cobbles, boulders, & hard layers/lenses  Great for heaving sands

  • Reduced Risk for Mistakes

 Better info to make decisions

 Angle wells/multi-cased wells w/o leaving casing in ground

Why Use Sonic?

slide-18

Sonic Benefit - Fast

  • 2- 4 times faster than HSAs when sampling
  • Advances at rates up to 1’/ second drilling

friendly formations

  • Automated rod make up and break out –

enhances speed & safety

  • Reduces Site Time - lowers project cost for

your client (compressed time line), lower management cost, lower per diem cost, reduced down time of an operational site

slide-19

Sonic Benefit – Sample Quality

  • Clearly displays lithology in

delicate, hard-to-recover material – Sample quality is basis of your remedial strategies

  • Samples virtually any
  • verburden formation or
  • bstruction

Sonic Benefit – Minimizes IDW

  • Cuttings are expensive to dispose of

and require time & dollars to characterize them

  • Sonic drilling reduces the amount of

Investigative Derived Waste (IDW) by 70 – 80% compared with Hollow Stem Auger or Rotary Drilling operations.

Sonic Value – Superior Information

  • Complete accurate geological information – Enables precise site

investigations

  • Visibility of delicate formations – Recovers delicate sand seams

and other easily altered geology

  • Penetrates Faster – Compresses time line – reduces overhead and

management cost

  • Drills Deep – To define lower contamination boundaries – such as

Chlorinated Solvents

  • Drills & Samples toughest geology without refusal
  • Drills Dry - Avoiding sample bias & cross contamination
