Benefits of Non-vibratory Drilling & Casing
Reduces Impact on Surrounding Areas
Non-vibratory techniques can reduce the impact on surrounding areas, which is important when drilling in urban areas or near existing foundations and structures. This is helpful in situations where a replacement structure must be constructed in advance of demolition of existing structures, such as bridge replacement, reducing the impact of construction on the traveling public.
Reduces Environmental Concerns
Additionally, using non-vibratory techniques can reduce or in some cases eliminate impacts on the surrounding environment which allows for drilling in sensitive areas.
When utilizing a wet/slurry construction method, water alone can be used minimizing impact on surrounding areas.
Cuttings can easily be controlled and excavated soil can easily be placed in a truck or retaining pond for disposal, making for a cleaner job site.
It has been studied that hammering and vibration create a sound in coastal conditions which hinders the sonar soundwaves used by marine animals to see and communicate. Oscillating eliminates this impact on marine life.
