Implications of Drill Vibration to the Surrounding Environment
Implications of Drill Vibration to the Surrounding Environment
(OP)
I would like to locate literature on the settling of earth around a natural gas drill rig (triple) operating on a rock /pit fill pad.
Is it possible that the vibrations from a drill rig in operation could casue settling/compaction of the ground around it?
Any help locating evidence of this event would be great!
Thanks

RE: Implications of Drill Vibration to the Surrounding Environment
what are you drilling and does it happen to involve pumping water out of or in to the ground?

The rig itslef will not vibrate much, the motor house will. But if you mat the skids correctly it should not be an issue.
