ESL has several types of rotary rig to meet the demand of both terrain and geological formation. We offer 3 different variations of the Nordmeyer RSB rig, two of which are trailer mounted and the third track mounted. These are the heavy weight options with twin rotary speed and heavy duty hammer. Drilling and probing from these rigs does not require the use of water or other fluid as a flush medium making them ideal for environmental work. All rigs are fitted with or can be fitted with a spark arrestor and Chalwyn valve. The hydraulic oil used in all our drill rigs is biodegradable.
