5.0 out of 5 stars A very comprehensive and complete book about drilling, July 30, 2002

This review is from: Drilling: The Manual of Methods, Applications, and Management (Hardcover)
Im a driller in Mexico, I have found this book very useful, it covers a lot of topics, It is very well explained and very detailed in any subject, from measures to drilling techniques as well as machinery and tools and geology for drillers.

The only poor topic I found on the book, is about pneumatic/hammer drilling altough the topic is covered it is very poor in information about the technique.

How ever in general its a very good and complete book as I said, and its a must in every driller bookshelf

This review is from: Drilling: The Manual of Methods, Applications, and Management (Hardcover)
If you are looking for a good book on environmental, geotechnical or hydrogeology drilling this is the BOOK it is set up so even a driller can understand basic concepts and gives engineers a good idea about drilling practices and concepts.
