Wasp Down-hole CPT System

The Geomil Equipment Wasp is the next step to gather data from conventional boreholes. The Wasp forms a basic and robust yet easy-to-use versatile Cone Penetration Testing (CPTu) system for downhole use. It is designed to gather more information and accurate data on one and the same borehole. Easy to be combined with several existing drilling methods as a cost-effective add-on.
In the standard version, the Wasp system can be deployed as an add-on drilling tool up to 50 m depth.
With the Wasp segmental CPT and soil sampling can be conducted intermittently. After completion of a CPT or soil sampling, drilling can be advanced to the next test depth, where the probing/sampling cycle can continue until the final investigation depth is reached.
The real-time data provide digital accurate information from a conventional borehole.
The Wasp ensures high efficiency and a repeatable quality of test results, and provides an extra dimension of service. The maximum thrust force depends on the capability of the applied drilling system.

A complete Wasp system consists of:
• Wasp-CPT, the tool to perform the CPT test supports either (5), 10, or 15 cm² cones
• Cone penetration depth varies from 1 to 6m, depending on the drilling system
• GME-700 (incl. GPS)
• Depth registration system
• CPT Software
• Custom drilling rod (push rod) center pieces
• Custom drilling rod to CPT rod connection

Optional:
• Geomil Vane Tester (GVT)
• Memo CPT system (wireless, not real-time)
• MDW, Measuring While Drilling

All sizes can be accommodated as long as technically feasible
