What is environmental drilling?

Environmental drilling creates access for soil and groundwater sampling, monitoring-well installation and consultant-designed remediation work. Ambient Technologies provides the contracted drilling and field support for Florida environmental investigations, with methods selected around the approved work plan, geology, target depth, sample requirements and site access.

Soil and groundwater sampling

Direct-push technology (DPT) and other agreed methods collect samples at the target depths and intervals defined by the investigation.

Monitoring-well fieldwork

Coordinate installation, replacement, relocation or abandonment with the approved well design and construction schedule.

Remediation-system support

Drilling and installation work supports project-specified injection and monitoring points. The responsible consultant defines the remediation program.

Applications and documented methods

Field programs can support site assessment, initial site characterization, contaminant delineation, groundwater monitoring and remediation-system installation. The TheoChem case documents direct-push technology (DPT) and hollow-stem auger (HSA) drilling. The field video on this page shows environmental drilling and sampling at an Orange County, Florida Superfund site.

Field records for the project team

Agree geological observations, sampling records, sample handoffs and any well-construction or completion information during scoping. Ambient supplies the contracted field information; the responsible consultant evaluates it and makes remediation or engineering recommendations.

Prepare for mobilization

What to send for a drilling review

A work plan or boring and well schedule gives the field team a practical starting point. Include:

Location and access

Site address, working area, access limits and utility-clearance needs.
Drilling and sampling scope

Locations, quantities, target depths, sampling intervals and any well-construction details.
Records, permits and schedule

Identify investigation-derived-waste instructions, required field records or completion reports, any applicable drilling or well permits, closeout responsibilities and the requested mobilization window.

Questions before mobilization

Practical answers to help you plan the fieldwork.

What is environmental drilling used for?

Environmental drilling creates access for soil and groundwater investigation, monitoring-well installation, contaminant delineation and remediation-system components. The consultant’s work plan determines the project-specific objective and sampling approach.

Can Ambient coordinate different drilling methods?

Yes. The field method is selected during scoping based on the approved work plan, geology, target depth, sample needs, well design and site access.

What information does Ambient Technologies provide?

Ambient provides geological observations, sampling records and the field information specified for the project. The responsible consultant or project professional evaluates that information and makes remediation or engineering recommendations.

What information is needed for pricing?

Provide the site location, boring or well schedule, target depths, sampling intervals, construction details, investigation-derived-waste instructions, access notes and desired mobilization window. Pricing should also account for applicable permit application, closure and reporting costs.
