I recently attended the Michigan Ground Water Association's annual Fundamentals course for well drillers, and heard several good ideas for keeping clean while drilling into the dirt. It's all about sanitary well practices.
Atlas Copco was recently named to the 2013 Global 100 Most Sustainable Companies list. The honor marks the seventh time the company made the list. The Driller recently caught up with North America President Jim Levitt to hear his thoughts on sustainability and what it means to the company.
I recently met The Driller columnist John Schmitt for lunch and a hearty discussion about drilling methods, what this business might look like in 10 years and what drillers might like to read about.
My
recent trip to Las Vegas for the National Ground Water Association Expo-my
first big industry show-left me with a great first impression of the industry
and a lot to think about.
I come to The Driller from the newspaper industry. My talents include writing, editing and finding out information, and I'll put those skills to work for you in this space, keeping you informed about the latest industry news and trends.
