Rig 4 and the Precision Drilling Australia team have reached the halfway point of a major geotechnical drilling campaign in Western Australia’s Gascoyne region.
Our team is delivering a detailed site investigation to support the development of a new local desalination plant. The programme involves a substantial number of diamond drill holes across the proposed site, along with in-situ testing and the installation of groundwater monitoring wells.
Supporting a Major Infrastructure Project
The geotechnical investigation is designed to provide detailed information about subsurface conditions across the proposed development site.
The programme includes:
- Diamond drilling across multiple locations
- In-situ geotechnical testing
- Groundwater monitoring well installation
- Detailed geological and geotechnical data collection
Working in a coastal environment presents its own unique challenges, but our experienced crews continue to deliver the programme safely, efficiently and to a high technical standard.
At Precision Drilling Australia, we go beyond drilling. We provide tailored, data-driven geotechnical and hydrogeological solutions that give our clients greater confidence in the ground conditions beneath their projects, supporting informed design decisions and long-term asset performance.
This project is another strong example of our team’s technical capability, practical field experience and commitment to building trusted partnerships across Western Australia’s infrastructure, mining and resources sectors.
