FORWARD C8 Reaches 2,414 Metres at European Drilling Project — Drilling Continues


A FORWARD C8 core drilling rig has reached a new milestone at a drilling project in Europe: the borehole has now reached a depth of 2,414 metres, and drilling is still underway.

As core drilling progresses deeper, increasing drill string loads place greater demands on the rig’s lifting capacity, rotation system, hydraulic controls and overall reliability. This project provides an important opportunity to assess the C8’s performance under actual deep-hole drilling conditions and gather valuable field experience.

Designed for mineral exploration, the FORWARD C8 combines drilling capability with a focus on operating efficiency and safety, supporting customers in their deep exploration projects.

At 2,414 metres, the work continues. FORWARD will follow the project’s progress and share further drilling achievements as they become available.
