Geotechnical drilling is carried out to determine soil and rock characteristics and in some cases, gather information about the nature and position of the water table from particular sites. Drilling is conducted to assess potential construction sites and to confirm subsurface conditions.

Mineral exploration projects typically involve a search for certain minerals or materials that are valuable assets on the world market. Exploration is the search for hidden or unknown materials whereas investigation is the process of checking to establish if the mineral still exists in an economical quantity.

Environmental drilling involves the specialized applications of geotechnical and waterwell drilling methods to monitor the quality of soil groundwater and assist in the control and remediation of soil and/or groundwater pollution. The current prominence of environmental applications drives from concern over human impacts on soil and groundwater quality.

Hydrogeological drilling is conducted to obtain physical properties on the groundwater and aquifer systems influenced by geological formations, or rock types under the earth’s surface. Monitoring the result of the drilling and pump tests assists with decisions around the development of industrial infrastructure and minimizing environmental impacts. In addition, the extraction and utilization of the fresh water is a significant resource to all living creatures.
