What Is Geotechnical Drilling?
Geotechnical drilling is drilling which is often related to the construction of a structure such as a building or an oil rig. It can be part of the construction process as well as part of the investigation process conducted on site before the structure is built. This process is usually performed by a firm which specializes in providing geotechnical drilling services, under the supervision of a geotechnical engineer who remains present to make sure that the drilling meets the needs of the project. Such firms may also offer other drilling services, depending on their size and where they are located.
