Atacama Desert Copper Expansion

Chile, South America 2024

Deployed 4 XR-800 blast hole drill rigs for a Tier-1 copper producer's open-pit expansion in Chile. Operating at 3,200m elevation in extreme temperatures, the machines achieved sustained production rates of 850+ drill meters per shift.

London Crossrail Metro Piling

London, United Kingdom 2023

FD-1200 Foundation Crawler rigs were deployed for deep pile installation supporting new underground metro stations. Noise-limited operation in central London required precision torque control. SEA DRILLING rigs met all urban ordinance constraints while maintaining 100% structural compliance.

Norwegian Highway Subsea Tunnel Survey

Rogaland, Norway 2024

GT-400 Core Explorer rigs delivered undisturbed core samples from 800m depth through highly fractured rock zones for Norway's new subsea highway tunnel. The rig's precision wireline coring system achieved 97% core recovery in exceptionally challenging geology.
