Services
Hawkston Drilling provides a range of drilling and sampling services using multiple drilling technologies, including:
- Air-rotary drilling, used to drill boreholes into rock formations, effective for cobbles and boulders
- Sonic drilling, which provides undisturbed, continuous core samples in challenging geologic conditions with faster penetration and reduced waste
- Direct-push drilling, in which specialized machines push tools and sensors into the ground without conventional drilling, capable of producing 100 to 200 feet of high-quality samples per day through sand, gravel, clay, and fill
- Monitoring-well installation, which allows periodic sampling and analysis of groundwater, using hollow-stem augers up to 8.25 inches in diameter
- Monitoring-well development and abandonment, including pumping tests, wellhead protections, replacement, and state-regulated abandonment
- Soil-gas sampling, which measures gas between soil grains using post-run tubing and vapor implants
- Water well drilling for homeowners seeking access to underground aquifers for drinking, irrigation, and household use
- Geothermal drilling, which accesses the Earth’s natural heat for renewable energy
- Geotechnical and groundwater sampling
