The coming weeks I'll be working for Lang Exploratory Drilling. This company was aquired in the early '80s by Boart Longyear and now makes and uses the big stuff: rigs for rotary drilling. In the picture their latest creation: the LM700, about twice as big than the next largest rig they have ever made. It will be used to drill through the overburden (first couple of hundred meters), after this it will make way for an oilfield rig that will drill the rest down to a gas reserve.
