If you’re a regular reader of this column and you notice the title, you probably think, “Old Schmitt has slipped a cog once again.” If you have never read this before, I want to assure you that is not true and there is a method to my seemingly goofy title.
We have all been told at some point in our life that good things come to those who wait. In well rehabilitation projects, chemical contact time is one part of a successful program.
Comparing drilling rigs can be time consuming and somewhat confusing. With so many manufacturers offering all sizes and types of equipment, how do you know which is right for your business?
It is our mission here at The Driller magazine to stay informed on all the happenings around the drilling industry as well as stay up-to-date on the latest news, products and projects affecting drillers across the world. In order to accomplish those feats, we aim to connect with our readers in as many ways as possible. But, sometimes, our readers take the time to reach out to us and their feedback proves to be invaluable.
