Geoprobe equipment has redefined the way sites are investigated in the Environmental Industry. In many areas of the country, Geoprobe machines and tools have displaced traditional drilling methods as the preferred mode of collecting subsurface samples. There are numerous reasons why Geoprobe techniques have found such wide acceptance in the field. With the enclosed option, a Geoprobe is very mobile and secure from site to site. No cuttings are produced during the sampling process.
Mobilization is quick and economical.
Probing machines are easy to operate and relatively simple to maintain. Probing tools create small diameter holes which minimize surface and subsurface disturbance. Geoprobe machines fold compactly and store in cargo vans or truck toppers where the unit and tools can be locked and secured. Geoprobe machines have lower capital costs and are more economical to operate than rotary drilling machines and the level of effort and labor required for Geoprobe operation is much less than for conventional drilling. Geoprobe machines can be used to sample subsurface media including soil, groundwater, and soil gas.
