Award-winning, patented sonic drill rigs, built by the Sonic Drill Corporation, have worked efficiently and profitably on thousands of drilling projects around the world. Today, Sonic Drill Corporation rigs are in use in six continents and in every application imaginable.
Due to its non-intrusive abilities, sonic drilling technology has often been used (and specifically requested in government contracts) for sensitive projects such as dam remediation, nuclear site investigations and hazardous waste site reclamation. Because vibrations from the drill bit are not transmitted very far beyond the drill, penetrations can occur into very sensitive areas such as critical eco-systems, unstable terrain or vulnerable situations where traditional drilling would cause more harm or be impossible to complete.
As well, sonic drilling technology can drill 3-5 x faster than any other drilling technique in difficult soil conditions such as mixed materials, sand, silt, clay and boulders.
