/in , /by

Tampa is home to a diverse range of companies and organizations that may seek out help from a drilling company such as Amdrill, Inc., as we specialize in environmental and geotechnical drilling projects.

But most who think of drilling automatically envision one of Texas’ iconic oil drills or they may think of drilling a water well. And while these are two very common types of drilling, there are a wide variety of other projects that may benefit from environmental or geotechnical drilling services. And that’s precisely what we’ll explore in today’s article from Amdrill, Inc.

What Are the Most Common Uses for Drilling?

Tampa clients turn to our geotechnical drilling experts for assistance with a variety of different environments and locations, from undeveloped land, to densely populated urban environments, to wetlands or even marine environments.

We work with several different clients, ranging from builders and developers, to architects, engineers and civil engineers, along with conservation and environmental groups, sinkhole investigation/remediation firms, and energy companies, amongst many others. Here are a few different projects that we may be called in to perform.

  • Drilling to determine soil composition, the stability of the earth and the integrity of the underlying bedrock in a location
  • Identifying and exploring underground voids that could collapse to form a sinkhole
  • Extracting sediment and soil samples that can be sent out for testing for contamination
  • Drilling to evaluate the depth of the water table, soil water saturation levels and identify underground aquifers
  • Extracting samples and generating data for analysis to determine the suitability of a location as a building site
  • Drilling to determine the quality or condition of a foundation or other cement structure
  • Gathering data for scientists and environmental experts who can evaluate data and sample attributes

Drilling has many different purposes and functions. We work with many different clients, including builders, developers, civil and structural engineers, scientists and environmental experts, energy companies, well and data collection companies, property owners and many others.
