SonicCPT is an exciting and rapidly developing technique from Royal Eijkelkamp that is reducing early refusals in CPT soundings by carefully applying a vibration, when needed, to the CPT string. The technique actually has a history dating back almost 40 years to when Sasaki et al. (1983) reported their work to develop and deploy their vibratory cone, which they used for liquefaction analysis. ...
” Yes, next to the standard PPE hat drillers and assistants need to wear, there are also standards for safety for machinery used in the drilling industry. But our machines are designed to be even more safe and ergonomic than these safety standards. If you ask us, these are the safety features that every Sonic rig ...
