- A mobile geological drilling rig is used to investigate a huge landslide that was triggered by the 2016 Kaikōura Earthquake near Waiau, New Zealand.
James Chapman of CW Drill explains how the PQ coring system works. This sort of system is used for all sorts of geological research and minerals exploration.

I'm a core driller for Layne, I run a CT20 Drill rig, been doing it for years, i love it
Thanks for watching!
sir, if you want a new rig, please contact me. Thanks
Enjoyed that. Learning a bit about how Core drilling is done. Cheers !
Thanks!
Cool video, I learned some voabulary in english.
But always remember to wear protective gloves!
I'm also wondering if you extract the core with water about fluid contamination.
You don't want to alter the water composition of the extracting material
Well explain drilling technique, it looks like an efficient operation.
Cheers!
How this landslide looks "scientifically" and the "technology" used - are delightful words to my ears 🤗
Glad to delight you!
@@OutThereLearning😱 Omgosh - if you were to do a livestream Q & A I think I'd literally implode rofl (unsubtle hint 😁). I moderate on an Iceland volcano (Fagradalsfjall) live chat - @TokAir Iceland, youtube. If you get time it'd be beyond fabulous if you popped in to say hello (another unsubtle hint 😂) OK ok - there's a fine line between enthusiastic & pushy 🤣 She who dares - wins 😉
I just LOVE this channels content, format & "down to earth" presentation ( soz - couldn't resist the pun). KiaOra from East Coast North Island 🌏
@@sixthsenseamelia4695 can't fault your enthusiasm there. You can send me an email (address somewhere on the channel) and see what happens..
@@OutThereLearning 🙋Hello out there learning. I've sent an email to Tokolosh asking if it's OK to forward his email address to you. Tokolosh & family are shifting to Iceland in two weeks so he's very distracted at the moment. May take a day or several to hear back from him. I'll post his email address here if get confirmation. I look forward to seeing how it eventuates, it'd be super fabulous to have you as a guest! 👍
@@sixthsenseamelia4695 Feel free to use my email: julian@outtherelearning.co.nz . Happy to discuss
interested. watching from Papua new Guinea 🇵🇬
Rely cool. Would love to see them actually extracting a core as well
Yep, wasn't happening during my visit unfortunately
Me too.
Goodjob...
love the videos!
Thanks that's great!
Great Video
Thank you!
Cool!
Cheers!
How can I apply in your company?
Where is it?
I am working a soil test company in saudi Arabia as a driller.
PQ coring? Daaaamn that's huge. Biggest I've ever done is HQ.
Love your enthusiasm!
What does HQ mean?.
I need this rig job helper
This looks like our drilling locations in Pennsylvania ...you are either in the mountains or in some dumpy city drilling 🤣 usually sand stone , limestone or granite ..or at least thats what the geologist tells me haha I'm just the Dumb Driller....you guys have a very nice proper setup there 💪
Cheers!
👍
I have 14 year's experience about drilling
I search a job for drilling rig operator
I'm expert this work please talk to me
yes, really cool, but where is the oil?, as isn't this what these machines are designed for?
Not necessarily!
And to find ore veins for specific minerals for clients, depending on what type of mineral they are looking for.
these machines usually don't exceed 50 meters.
They are used to dig superficial and small wells (not for drinking water) and to explore the geology beneath us, manly for engineering purposes.
Sonic drill rig would eat that ground up. Nice safety gear like not wearing gloves hmm yeah very professional.
Having a bad day?
@@dannydevito2989 no just pointing out the obvious that if you want to claim to be a professional company with multiple rigs running across the country you should start with basics like ppe but hey there will always be room for cowboys in the industry. Sounds like you might be one of those cowboys yeehaa!
wouldn't that damage the core ?
@@Itnecap no sonic only liquefies 1.2mm of ground around the wall off the barrel giving you an undisturbed sample.
