Site Screening to Closure – Brisbane, Sydney & Melbourne
We are excited to present the 2nd Workshop on Advanced Technologies for Integral Contaminated Land Management, featuring an even larger delegation of North American experts for 2024.
Near shore barge drilling and sampling with Legion Drilling
Some of the most interesting and exciting drilling programs are completed from barges along Australia’s east coast lakes, rivers and harbours.
Contaminated Land Course on Hydrogeochemistry, Site Investigation and In-Situ Remediation
Bud Ivey will join us from Canada to discuss how hydrogeochemistry can guide in-situ remediation efforts and present new surfactant-based technology for PFAS recovery
Sydney Geotechnical Drilling Rig update - Sonic, Diamond and CPTu
The list of new additions to our range of sonic and geotechnical rigs continues in Sydney. We just received Comacchio MC-T 405 truck and MC900 sonic geotechncal rigs for our Sydney depot. This means more unique options to compete your investigation and less time waiting to get your hands on the best rig for the job.
Remembering our first webinar: Activated Carbon Injection using BOS 200® for In-Situ Remediation of Petroleum Hydrocarbons
BOS 200® operates as a complete remediation system, utilising an activated carbon platform and is injected as a slurry at high pressure.
Book Release - "Advances in the Characterisation and Remediation of Sites Contaminated with Petroleum Hydrocarbons"
The publication has contributions from 50+ global experts from industry and academia . The objective was to give visibility to recent developments in the investigation and management of petroleum-impacted sites, as well as
Seismic DMT-CPT for In-Situ Testing in Geotechnical and Tailings Investigations
Legion Drilling invited Eng. Diego Marchetti (Studio Prof. Marchetti) to present a webinar on in-situ testing using seismic profiling techniques (SCPTu-SDMT) for all our geotechnical and mining clients. Diego Marchetti shared his vast experience…
Legion Drillings’ new Sydney home
Our new Sydney Depot location provides greatly improved facilities for the support of our Geotechnical, Sonic and Geoprobe rigs and crews….
Advantages of Sonic Drilling Rigs in Landfill, Mine waste and Tailings Dams
Sonic drilling rigs have emerged as innovative solutions for problems across multiple sectors of the larger drilling market, offering significant advantages for environmental, geotechnical, and mining applications. This article explores the benefits of using sonic drilling rigs, with a particular emphasis on their application in landfill, mine waste and tailings dam projects.
Ecoforum/SustRem 2023: Sustainability in the Drilling and Remediation Industry
Ecoforum/SustRem 2023 was the perfect platform for Legion Drilling to keep advocating for more sustainable site investigation and remediation approaches. We take pride in our commitment to sustainability and the steps we have been taking since our beginnings to lead the way toward a more eco-conscious drilling industry.
Contaminated Land Management: from Site Screening to Closure
Presenters from USA and Australia will cover many of the technical developments that are now available to manage contaminated sites in a more efficient and sustainable manner. These range from direct sensing tools, mobile labs and discrete groundwater samplers for high-resolution site characterisation (HRSC) to low- and high-pressure injection technologies
Packer testing for geotechnical and hydrogeological applications
A hydraulic packer test is a common method used in hydrological studies to assess the properties and behavior of aquifers, specifically their permeability and transmissivity. This test involves isolating a specific interval within a borehole using an inflatable packer and conducting a controlled hydraulic test to measure the response of the aquifer.
Drilling Jobs in Sydney NSW
The drilling industry is not for the faint of heart. It requires resilience, adaptability, and a thirst for knowledge. At Legion Drilling, we pride ourselves on tackling some of the most challenging projects in the field, constantly pushing boundaries and exploring new frontiers.
Legion Drillings most used Geotechnical tests
Having the latest Geotechnical testing methods at your disposal is vital in todays competitive site assessment industry. The Standard Penetration Test (SPT) and Cone Penetration Test (CPT) offer valuable insights into soil properties and stratification. The Seismic Cone Penetration Test (SCPT) adds
