Resource Drilling Fundamentals

DRILL SCHOOL RETURNS

In response to the growing demand for skilled professionals in the water well drilling industry, GEFCO reprised its Drill School, a comprehensive five-day training program design to equip students with the theoretical and practical skills necessary to excel in the field. 

Drill School will be held in two separate sessions: February 24 - 28 and April 28 - May 2 this year at BAUER Equipment America in Conroe, Texas. Drill School provides students with a unique opportunity to receive hands-on training and professional instruction from industry experts.

Last year, the students witness the upgraded GEFCO flagship. With the mast lifted 35 feet in the air, the operators successfully demonstrated various drilling techniques, including air drilling and mud drilling. During the final day, the instructors focused on air drilling, showcasing to the students how deep boreholes can be drilled into rock formations and may be effective where other drilling methods aren't feasible. 

"This Drill School is well organized, well thought out and informative," says David Helgeson of Drillworx. "As a salesman, I hope to learn information here to better help my customers"

Drill School may be over, but the training doesn't end there. We offer other opportunities for education and training throughout the year. For more information about GEFCO training, contact our training department.
