Drilling Methods Supported

• Kelly Drilling (Without Casing Oscillator): This is the standard drilling method supported by the BG 12H.
• CFA Drilling: The rig is pre-equipped with hydraulic and electric installations for Continuous Flight Auger (CFA) drilling.
• FDP Full-Displacement-Piling: It is also pre-equipped for full-displacement piling with hydraulic and electric installations.

Limited Access Projects

• Restricted Spaces: Ideal for projects in urban areas or confined spaces where traditional rigs may be too large.
• High-Wall Stability: The compact design allows for precise drilling near existing structures, helping to maintain wall stability.

Groundwater Control

• Well Points and Dewatering: The rig’s versatility allows it to efficiently create well points for dewatering applications.
• Low-Impact: Its compact size results in minimal disturbance to the surrounding soil and water table.

Drilled Shaft Services

• Deep Foundations: Even though it’s compact, the BG 12 is capable of drilling to considerable depths, making it suitable for deep foundation work.
• Micropiles: Its precision and size make it ideal for drilling micropiles in locations with space limitations.
