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.

Recently captured a couple of great shots with crews undertaking drilling works on the Sydney “Metro” project in New South Wales (NSW). The image above shows one of our Boart Longyear DB520 Multipurpose rigs completing an 50m HQ3 geotechnical core location in the shadow of the HMS Endeavour replica.

At Numac we thrive on providing solutions for challenging drilling programs. Our loyal clientele return for the support of a drilling contractor that can deliver in high risk and high performance situations.

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.

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.

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

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.  

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.
