Markets We Serve

Geotechnical

During our more than 55 years serving the geotechnical drilling market, Hetager Drilling has earned a solid reputation for our ability to produce a quality product in a very efficient manner. During the past 10 years alone, we have drilled more than one million feet of soil and rock!

The geotechnical subsurface investigations that we have completed include:

• Highways and bridges
• Buildings
• Water treatment facilities
• Dams
• A variety of other civil infrastructure projects.

Many of the drill rigs we use for geotechnical assignments were built in our Punxsutawney, Pa., headquarters location. Based on the special requests of our clients, we saw the need for specialized equipment that is typically unavailable for purchase commercially. Our high-torque, high-speed equipment is capable of very rapid sample extraction with no degradation of the sample quality. As we are keenly aware of the accelerated design schedules for today’s projects, our goal is to exceed our customers’ expectations and complete their projects in the most efficient manner possible.
