In the tables below, you can see the drilling parameters for core drilling operations, both recommended by global equipment manufacturers and acquired through experience. These are recommended values both for hoel optimization and stability and for the equipment you use not to remain in the well, not to break and to use more efficiently. However, these values vary depending on the characteristics of the geological formation, quality of the drilling rig and equipment you use; all values given in the tables are advisory.
