At GroundHog, our commitment to continuous improvement and collaboration drives our pursuit of solutions for the unique challenges presented by the drilling process. We extend an invitation to our esteemed customers and industry experts to share insights, fostering a collective approach to finding innovative solutions.
Addressing Challenges for Safety, Productivity, and Efficiency
Drilling operations inherently bring forth challenges that demand attention to ensure safety, enhance productivity, and achieve operational efficiency. Conventional drilling, lacking precision techniques, often results in significant time spent on hole positioning and transit, impacting productive drilling time and overall drill productivity.
Key Questions to Fuel the Conversation:
- Drill Equipment Reliability and Performance:What common difficulties do you face regarding drill equipment reliability and performance?
- Common Challenges with Conventional Drilling:What challenges do mines typically encounter with conventional drilling?
- Impact of Inaccurate Hole Positioning:How does inaccurate hole positioning impact drilling efficiency?
- Downstream Process Challenges:What challenges arise in blasting, loading, hauling, and other downstream processes due to conventional drilling?
- Additional Challenges:What other challenges do you face in your drilling operations?
Precision Techniques and Tools: Charting the Path to Improvement
To tackle these challenges, we advocate for the adoption of precision drilling techniques, including Real-Time Kinematic (RTK) receivers and dual antennas. These tools significantly enhance location data precision, contributing to the overall accuracy of drilling operations. Investing in high-quality drilling tools designed to meet specific needs further aids in overcoming operational hurdles.
