ABC Drilling is utilizing a Sonic Drill Rig that resonates sound to liquify soil. This drilling technique has distinct advantages over other drilling techniques in that it allows the collection of continuous core samples from ground surface to total depth.
The reason this project is significant is that ABC Drilling is using sonic drilling technology to depths that far exceed what was thought to be possible in this area, in this type of geology. This is possible because of the drill rig, the operator and ABC Drilling's management team that have planned for a complex drilling plan that was instrumental in achieving these depths.
No other company with sonic drilling capabilities even bid the work because they all thought it was impossible and high risk.
ABC Drilling has already successfully installed a similar production well in the Salton Sea along with an off grid solar pump system and above ground irrigation system that has allowed for planting of vegetation to help suppress dust. This was done as a pilot study for a Water District and they're sharing the information collected from continuous soil core and discrete water samples using Sonic Drill rig in that area.
