Why should I choose sonic?
A sonic head isn’t a simple gearbox-style rotary head. It uses high‑RPM motors, weights, advanced bearing systems, and multiple monitoring alarms for temperature and pressure. In many ways, a true sonic head looks more like a jet engine!
So why choose sonic over a traditional rig that could also get the job done?
If sonic drilling had been invented first, chances are the whole world would be drilling sonic today, it’s simply one of the most versatile and efficient drilling methods available. Sonic drills straight and fast, penetrates any overburden, recovers exceptional samples or drills destructive, uses less water, generates less waste, drills deeper and practically eliminates refusal. It’s safer for crews, cleaner for sites, and delivers consistently high-quality results.
The investment in sonic is quickly offset by faster and successful project completion, higher annual drilling meters, improved utilization rates, and greater satisfaction for both clients and drilling crews.
