Well,
I
thought
the
best
way
to
start
the
New
Year
is
to
give
you
all
our
Solid
Gold
Smiles
~
or
at
least
a
reasonable
facsimile
thereof.
As
always,
we
are
eagerly
looking
forward
to
another
year
doing
what
we
do
best
-
serving
our
friends
in
the
drilling
indus-
try.
That
is
what
makes
each
of
us
smile
from
ear-to-ear
each
and
every
day.
You
are
our
family,
and
we
will
do
whatever
we
can
to
help
you
do
what
you
do
best
for
your
customers
and
this
wonderful
industry
of
drilling.
If
you
are
looking
for
a
certain
product,
service,
or
even
person
in
the
drilling
indus-
try
and
are
just
having
a
hard
time
doing
that
-
please
pick
up
the
phone
and
call
850-547-0102
and
ask
the
W
WDR
WWDR
Team,
“where,
what,
or
who”.
I
guarantee
you
will
get
the
help
you
need
as
quickly
as
possible.
And
guess
what
else?
You
don’t
owe
us
a
dime
for
that
information
-
because
you
called
the
one
and
only
~
WorldWide
Drilling
Resource

®

.We
say
what
we
mean
and
do
what
we
say.
I
guess
you
could
say,
our
middle
name
is
“Integrity”.
Now
onto
the
New
Year.
This
NEW
year
has
a
bit
of
a
change
up
for
us
with
regards
to
some
trade
shows
we
have
been
attending
since
the
founding
of
this
company
in
2003.
While
we
have
always
gone
out
of
our
way
to
ensure
full
coverage
for
as
many
events
as
possible,
and
as
they
say
“neither
rain
nor
sleet,
nor
snow
(and
there
has
been
some
bad
snow!)
nor
cancelled
flights,
kept
us
from
covering
those
events”,
what
has
happened
came
as
quite
a
shock
to
us
as
much
as
it
may
now
be
for
you
to
be
reading
it
here.
No,
I
won’t
go
into
the
details.
Just
know,
this
was
not
at
the
request
or
suggestion
of
the
WWDR
Team.
From
all
of
us
here
at
WorldWide
Drilling
Resource
WorldWide
Drilling
Resource
®
®
,
we
will
miss
being
with
you,
wish
you
all
the
best
with
your
event,
and
pray
things
change
next
year
so
we
can
visit
with
those
friends
we
missed
this
year.*
KEEP SMILING!
KEEP SMILING!
We
Will
See
you
on
the
trail!

line
includes:
1.
High-Visibility
Performance
Safety
Vest
-
Available

or
stored
in
its
carrying
case
while
not
in
use.
The
corded
earplugs
have
a
noise
reduction
rating
of
26
to
protect

hazardous
noise.
3.

new
N95
respirators
are

inside
the
mask
by
ten
degrees.
They
are
also
equipped
with
soft,
adjustable
straps
and
a
flexible
nose
bridge
to
ensure
a
better
fit.
5.
Gloves
-
The
new
Impact
Demolition
Gloves
are
built
with
enhanced
TPR
(thermoplastic
rubber)
on
the
back
of
the
fingertips
and
palms.
It
even
includes
a
specially
designed
knuckle
to
allow
the
use
of
smart
phones
and
touch
screens,
without

screen.
A
breathable
lining
and
built-in
terry
cloth
sweat
wipe
help
the

polyurethane
dipped
glove
with
a
breathable,
lightweight
back
for
better
fit
and
a
nitrile
rein-
forcement
between
the
thumb
for
better
protection.
The
final
addition
is
the
new
Goatskin
Leather
Glove,
with
comfortable
top-grain
goatskin
leather
and
a
reinforced
palm
for
a
longer
life.
6.
Hard
Hats
-
One
of
the
most
common
problems
with
current
hard
hat
designs
is
they
aren’t
built
with
the
versatility
to
support
accessories
and
additional
PPE.
Users
end
up
modifying
them
by
drilling
holes
and
using
zip
ties
which
weakens
the
integrity
of
the
hard
hat.
The
Milwaukee
hard
hats
feature
six
total
accessory
slots,
four
BOLT™
accessory
slots,
and
two
universal
accessory
slots,
giving
users
sever-
al
ways
to
customize
their
hard
hat
for
the
jobsite.
All
hard
hats
are
type
1
and
offered
in
both
Class
C
and
Class
E,
and
available
in
either
a
front
or
full
brim
style.
Making
sure
your
crew
has
the
right
equipment
for
the
job
includes
PPE.
Protect
your
crew
with
the
latest
in
PPE
technology
designed
to
keep
workers
safe
so
they
can
remain
productive
on
the
job.

Cash
Flow
Strategies
and
Profits
Cash
flow
is
the
lifeblood
of
every
business.
In
fact,
according
to
a
U.S.
Bank
study,
poor
cash
flow
management
causes
82%
of
U.S.
business
failures.
Although
seemingly
counterintuitive,
many
experts
advise
putting
cash
flow
management
before
profits.
While
profits
are
how
a
drilling
business
survives,
failure
to
manage
the
operation’s
cash
flow
can
mean
running
into
problems
that
one
profitable
accounting
period
might
not
be
able
to
offset.
In
essence,
cash
flow
is
nothing
more
than
the
movement
of
money
in
and
out
of
the
drilling
operation
or
business.
Obviously,
accelerating
cash
inflows
improves
overall
cash
flow.
After
all,
the
quicker
cash
can
be
collected,
the
faster
the
b
usiness
can
spend
it.
Put
another
way,
accelerating
cash
flow
allows
a
drilling
operation
to
pay
its
own
bills
and
obligations
on
time,
or
even
earlier
than
required.
It
may
also
allow
the
business
to
take
advantage
of
trade
discounts
offered
by
suppli-
ers.
Outflows
are
the
movement
of
money
out
of
the
drilling
business,
usually
as
the
result
of
paying
expenses.
An
important
key
to
improving
the
drilling
operation’s
cash
flow
is
often
as
simple
as
delaying
all
outflows
of
cash
as
long
as
possible.
Naturally,
the
operation
must
meet
its
outflow
deadlines
and
obligations
on
time.
Yet
another
option
might
be
frugali-
ty.
Aiming
to
keep
the
drilling
operation
lean,
evaluate
it.
Is
the
purchase
of
new
equipment
really
necessary?
Is
hiring
new
employees
really
cost-effective?
Weighing
the
pros
and
cons
of
all
busi-
ness
needs
and
wants
enables
the
drilling
operation
or
business
to
retain
cash
flow
and
avoid
unnecessary
expenses.
Any
business,
large
or
small,
can
experience
a
cash
flow
gap
-
it
doesn’t
necessarily
mean
the
business
is
in
financial
trouble.
In
fact,
some
cash
flow
gaps
are
created
intentionally.
That
is,
a
business
owner
or
manager
will
some-
times
purposefully
spend
more
cash
to
achieve
some
other
financial
result.
A
business
might,
for
example,
purchase
extra
inventory
to
meet
seasonal
needs,
to
take
advantage
of
a
quantity
or
early-
payment
discount,
or
might
spend
extra
cash
to
expand
its
business.
Every
business
can
improve
its
cash
flow.
Of
course,
for
this
to
happen,
they
need
to
adopt
best
practices
in
the
way
they
invoice,
follow-up
with
customers
and
regulate
the
business’s
outflows.
Without
the
help
of
a
qualified
profes-
sional,
many
best
cash
flow
practices
may
be
difficult
to
achieve
or
worse,
overlooked.

New
ISO
Standard
for
Drones
The
global
commercial
drone
market
has
skyrocketed
in
recent
years.
Where
the
pace
of
technology
outruns
regulations,
international
standards
are
essential
to
ensure
safety
and
quality.
A
new
ISO
standard
has
been
published
to
keep
everyone
in
the
industry
on
the
same
plane.
ISO
21384-3,
Unmanned
aircraft
systems
-
Part
3:
Operational
procedures
,
was
recently
published
to
meet
that
need.
It
is
the
first
International
Standard
for
UAS
(unmanned
aircraft
systems)
and
specifies
internationally
agreed
and
ac-
cepted
requirements
for
safe
commercial
operations.
The
document
applies
to
all
commercial
UAS
regardless
of
size,
categorization,
application,
or
location,
and
represents
the
international
best
practice
for
the
safe
operation
of
all
commercial
UAS.
The
standard
is
structured
to
provide
a
logical
pathway
from
core
principles
to
specific
requirements.
John
Walker,
chair
of
the
ISO
subcommittee
that
developed
the
standard,
mentioned
there
are
hundreds
of
applications
for
small
UAS
alone
that
will
benefit
from
the
standard,
including
construction,
safety,
security,
mining,
maritime
operations,
and
more.
“The
range
of
applications
is
growing
fast,
but
at
the
same
time,
the
industry
is
very
much
in
its
infancy,
and
there
are
a
number
of
key
obstacles
to
overcome
before
large-scale
commercialization
is
achieved,”
he
said.
“ISO
21384-3
will
help
resolve
those
challenges
through
providing
an
airworthiness
framework
for
the
global
UAS
industry,
allowing
for
safer
and
more
widespread
use.”

Gerald
Johannes
VanderLans
(1933~2019)
The
WWDR
WWDR
Team
was
sad
to
learn
of
the
passing
of
Gerald
Johannes
VanderLans
on
November
25,
2019.
Born
in
Lisse,
Holland,
Gerald
was
the
fourth
of
ten
children.
He
grew
up
in
Nazi-occupied
Holland,
surviving
by
his
bravery
and
intelligence
to
provide
food
for
his
family.
Being
mechanically
inclined,
at
the
age
of
14,
he
was
able
to
disassemble
an
engine
and
successfully
put
it
back
together.
When
he
was
19,
he
immigrated
to
Canada
with
his
brothers
to
find
a
better
life.
There,
he
worked
in
the
lumber
industry.
Eventually,
he
made
his
way
to
Lodi,
California,
where
his
girlfriend
Sjaan
had
previously
immigrated.
After
a
brief
courtship,
they
were
married.
Then
after
25
years,
their
marriage
ended,
yet
they
remained
close,
lifelong
friends.
Gerald
was
a
dairyman
for
a
bit,
then
worked
at
Holz
Rubber
company
where
he
learned
the
industry
that
would
become
his
career.
In
the
1950s,
Gerald
developed
a
product
line
for
testing
underground
pipelines
and
started
Lansas
Products,
which
he
managed
until
his
death.
He
is
considered
the
father
of
the
plug
industry,
holding
many
patents
that
became
the
cornerstone
for
the
pipe
testing
industry.
Gerald
is
survived
by
his
children
Adrian
(Victor),
Lillian
(Steve),
Gerald,
and
Eric
VanderLans;
grandchildren
Noelle
(Mark),
Kim
(Nick),
Blake,
Monica
(Gentry),
Kevin,
Marissa,
Jessica
(Ryan),
Jordan,
Joseph
(Nicole),
Taylor,
and
Matthew;
ten
great-
grandchildren;
his
Brother
Jack
(Kay),
and
sisters
Ellie
and
Maria
(Ivan).
The
management
and
staff
of

extend
their
condolences
to
Nick’s
and
Gerald’s
family.

A
Million
Barrels
of
Fun
in
West
Texas
Compiled

If
you
are
ever
traveling
through
West
Texas,
there
is
a
unique
museum
in
the
heart
of
the
Permian
Basin
you
may
want
to
visit
-
the
Million
Barrel
Museum.
It
may
be
hard
to
imagine
today,
but
the
Permian
Basin
was
once
considered
a
petroleum
grave-
yard.
That
is,
until
the
1920s
when
exploration
companies
started
drilling
more
successful
wells.
T
he
area
witnessed
great
oil
discoveries.
However,
with
no
pipelines
or
tanks
to
get
the
oil
to
a
refinery,
operators
had
to
come
up
with
a
solution.
The
Roxana
Petroleum
company
(which
would
later
become
part
of
Shell
Oil)
decided
to
build
a
giant
concrete
reservoir.
Dubbed
the
Million Barrel
Reservoir,
engineers
actually
designed
it
to
hold
five
million
barrels
of
oil.
Unfortunately,
when
the
company
injected
a
million
barrels
of
oil
into
the
tank
for
the
first
time,
the
reservoir
leaked.
The
weight
bearing
down
on
the
concrete
amounted
to
four
hundred
million
pounds
of
pressure,
something
the
engineers
must
not
have
considered.
The
tank
covered
eight
acres
of
land
measuring
620
feet
long
by
510
feet
wide
with
concrete
walls
30
feet
tall,
sloped
at
a
45
degree
angle.
The
tank
leaked
from
too
many
places
and
the
company
couldn’t
seal
it
properly.
In
hindsight,
the
decision
to
pour
the
concrete
in
sections,
leaving
a
lot
of
seams,
probably
wasn’t
the
best
idea.
Even
though
the
tank
had
a
domed,
California
redwood
roof,
oil
also
evapo-
rated
out
of
the
tank.
The
oil
loss
happened
slowly,
so
the
tank
held
the
oil
until
it
was
shipped
to
Oklahoma
for
refining.
Once
the
oil
was
pumped
out,
the
tank
was
dismantled.
Empty
and
abandoned,
the
people
in
the
area
used
the
tank
for
parades,
square
dancing,
and
other
community
events.
Then
in
1954,
Wayne
and
Amalie
Long
purchased
the
concrete
reservoir
thinking
they
could
convert
the
tank
into
a
water
park.
The
couple
drilled
six
wells
nearby,
and
began
pumping
in
the
water.
They
even
built
a
boat
ramp
from
the
opening
engineers
had
made
to
remove
the
interior
pillars
and
the
roof.
The
cou-
ple
called
their
attraction
Melody
Park. It
opened
October
5,
1958,
the
man-made
lake
attracted
swimmers,
boaters,
and
an-
glers;
even
a
professional
ski
team
from
Austin
came
to
put
on
an
exhibition.
Unfortunately,
water
weighs
twice
as
much
as
oil,
so
the
tank
didn’t
do
any
better
holding
water.
Leaks
caused
the
lake
to
disappear
as
Wayne
tried
desperately
to
find
and
seal
the
source
of
the
leaks.
In
the
end,
Melody
Park
essentially
closed
the
day
after
it
opened.
Abandoned
once
again,
the
site
became
a
graffiti-peppered
community
landmark
for
nearly
three
decades.
Wayne
passed
away
in
1980. Six
years
later,
Amalie
would
donate
the
structure,
along
with
more
than
14
acres
of
land
surrounding
it,
to
the
Ward
County
Historical
Commission
in
his
honor.
With
the
help
of
local
teachers
and
historians,
con-
struction
of
the
Million
Barrel
Museum
began
in
1986,
as
part
of
Ward
County’s
150th
anniversary
celebration. The
museum
opened
with
much
fanfare
on
May
30,
1987.
Today,
the
museum
grounds
include
a
potpourri
of
historical
items
from
farming
equipment;
railroad
memorabilia;
and
an
eclipse
windmill;
to
Coca-Cola
products;
old
school
buildings
with
antiques;
as
well
as
oilfield
artifacts
from
the
area.
Also
includ-
ed
on
the
grounds
is
the
Rattlesnake
Bomber
Base
Museum
which
has
a
great
collection
of
World
War
II
memorabilia.
One
segment
of
the
tank
is
home
to
the
Meadows
Amphitheater,
a
400-seat
venue
complete
with
a
stage
for
concerts.
It
even
has
a
roof
similar
to
the
tank’s
original
roof.
The
tank
continues
to
host
class
reunions;
craft
shows;
and
other
community
events,
the
most
popular
being
a
fajita
cook-off
and
tejano
dance
held
in
May,
which
attracts
more
than
5000
people.
On
the
first
weekend
of
December,
the
Million
Barrel
Museum
hosts
a
Christmas
lighting
com-
plete
with
holiday
activities.
So,
if
you
are
ever
driving
down
I-20,
about
35
miles
west
of
Odessa,
Texas,
stop

The
Elbtower
Foundation
Piles
Set
New
Record
Adapted
from
Information
by
BAUER
Group
A
project
in
Hamburg,
Germany,
will
be
Europe’s
largest
inner
city
development
project
to
date,
the
futuristic
HafenCity
district.
The
Elbtower
will
be
the
final
building
of
the
project,
and
towering
more
than
800
feet
above
the
ground,
it
will
be
the
tallest
building
in
Hamburg,
and
the
third
tallest
high-rise
in
Germany
after
the
Commerzbank
Tower
and
the
Messeturm
(trade
fair
tower)
in
Frankfurt
am
Main.
Elbtower
will
be
situated
between
the
bridges
over
the
Elbe
river
and
will
include
an
observation
deck,
as
well
as
office
and
retail
space,
hotel,
boarding
house,
coworking
spaces,
fitness
and
wellness
areas,
as
well
as
a
children’s
play
area.
There
will
also
be
around
600
parking
spaces
and
a
boat
storage.
There
is
even
talk
of
building
a
restaurant
near
the
top
of
the
tower.
Before
the
structure
can
be
built,
the
foundation
must
be
studied
and
test
piles
need
to
be
drilled.
BAUER
Spezialtiefbau
GmbH
was
hired
to
conduct
the
load
testing
using
test
piles
built
specifically
for
this
project.
The
ground
surface
near
the
river
has
a
low
load-bearing
capacity
due
to
the
area’s
deep,
cohesive
soil
stratum.
This
means
the
structural
load
will
have
to
be
shifted
to
the
subsoil,
which
has
deeper,
load-
bearing
soil
stratum,
to
prevent
the
building
from
settling.
BAUER
installed
the
initial
test
piles
to
a
depth
of
about
365
feet
and
a
diameter
of
nearly
73
inches
making
it
the
longest
piles
ever
installed
in
Germany.
“The
load
tests
with
the
test
piles
will
allow
us
to
analyze
the
ground
behavior
and
structural
load
in
order
to
determine
the
most
eco-
nomical
foundation,”
said
Andreas
Wedenig,
project
manager
at
BAUER
Spezialtiefbau.
“Two
of
our
test
piles
will
be
subsequently
integrated
in
the
finished
building.
Two
are
only
for
testing
purposes.”
The
test
piles
are
slurry-stabilized
large-diameter
bored
piles,
installed
using
the
kelly
method.
Using
this
method,
drill
tools
are
attached
to
a
telescopic
kelly
bar,
while
the
ground
is
incrementally
dissolved
and
brought
to
the
surface.
Typically,
this
process
uses
a
steel
casing
pipe
placed
in
the
ground
before
the
work
be-
gins.
The
extreme
depths
required
for
this
project
caused
the
team
to
skip
the
pipe
work
as
much
as
possible.
Slurry
stabilization
was
used
instead. With
this
procedure,
the
excess
fluid
pressure
prevented
the
walls
of
the
borehole
from
collapsing.
Once
the
planned
drilling
depth
was
achieved,
the
sand
was
removed
from
the
suspension
and
a
reinforcement
cage
was
built.
Cement
was
then
pumped
in
to
fill
the
borehole
from
bottom
to
the
top,
pushing
the
suspension
to
the
top
of
the
borehole.
One
of
the
unique
parts
of
this
project
is
the
pile
test
is
carried
out
near
the
base
of
the
pile
using
an
Osterberg
cell,
which
is
a
hydraulic
loading
device
built
into
the
reinforcement
cage,
where
it
loads
the
pile
from
below.
“The
actual
foundation
works
are
planned
to
begin
[this
year];
then
more
than
100
of
these
large-diameter
bored
piles
will
be
created.
The
length,
diameter,
material,
formation,
and
placement
of
the
piles
can
vary
according
to
the
results
of
the
load
tests,”
explained
Wedenig.
Groundbreaking
for
the
Elbtower
is
scheduled
for
2021,
with
completion
expected
by
2025.

One
of
the
most
important
things
Water
For
Life
does
in
Guatemala,
besides
mak-
ing
clean
safe
water
available
to
over
30,000
people
every
day,
is
the
thousands
of
p
ounds
of
material
we
ship
and
give
to
the
Ministry
of
Health.
We
collect
this
material
all
year
from
various
sources
then
store
it
in
Gary’s
shop,
waiting
for
the
fall
shipment
to
Guatemala.
The
material
comes
mainly
from
Deaconess
Hospital
in
Spokane,
and
the
Alsco
linen
company.
The
hospital
gives
us
access
to
equipment
they
are
replacing
due
to
upgrades.
These
items
will
be
thrown
away
if
we
do
not
take
it,
so
we
almost
always
say
yes.
The
things
they
give
us
vary;
we
have
received
manual
operating
room
tables,
obstetric
delivery
beds,
operating
room
lights,
baby
incubators,
oxygen
delivery
meters,
X-ray
machines,
thousands
of
hand
tools
for
use
in
surgery
suites,
endoscopes,
and
many
other
things
too
numerous
to
remember.
The
Alsco
linen
company
gives
us
hospital
linens,
gowns,
sheets,
towels,
blankets,
and
everything
you
can
think
of
made
of
cloth
for
use
in
a
medical
setting.
The
things
are
always
clean,
folded,
and
packed
in
boxes.
This
year,
there
were
170
boxes.
All
these
things
are
very
useful
in
Guatemala,
at
the
Government
Hospital
and
in
the
public
health
clinics
in
the
villages.
The
Ministry
of
Health
is
very
thankful
for
the
things
we
do
for
the
people.
They
recognize
the
improved
health
in
villages
where
clean
water
is
easily
available,
and
report
to
us
the
rate
of
infant
mortality
is
lower
in
the
Peten
region
than
in
other
areas
of
Guatemala.
They
attribute
this
to
the
contribution
of
Water
For
Life.
Water
For
Life
would
like
to
thank
all
of
you
for
your
contributions.
Those
of
us
who
go
to
Guatemala,
get
a
firsthand
look
at
what
is
done,
and
we
get
to
see
the
difference
being
made
in
the
lives
of
the
people.
We
could
not
do
any
of
it
without
your
help.
We
believe
this
whole
business
is
a
result
of
the
blessings
of
the
Good
Lord
and
we
thank
you
for
being
willing
to
be
a
part
of
it.
The
people
in
Guatemala
have
very
little,
but
because
they
have
you
and
me
for
friends,
their
lives
are
better.
Thank
you
all.
I
invite
you
to
come
and
check
it
out
for
yourself.

Geothermal
Design
Challenge
is
Underway
Adapted
from
Information
by
the
U.S.
Department
of
Energy
and
the
Idaho National
Laboratory
The
U.S.
Department
of
Energy’s
Geothermal
Technologies
Office
along
with
the
Idaho
National
Laboratory
(INL),
are
hosting
the
2020
Geothermal
Design
Challenge™:
GIS
Mapping
Student
Competition.
This
design
challenge
will
focus
on
a
nontechnical
obstacle
for
geothermal
development
-
promoting
the
understanding
of
geothermal
energy
technology.
Teams
of
two
or
three
students
will
be
chal-
lenged
to
create
a
map
showing
how
GIS
can
be
used
to
encourage
geother-
mal
development.
GIS
(geographic
information
system)
is
a
computer
system
which
analyzes
and
displays
geographically
referenced
information.
They
will
use
GIS
mapping
to
create
a
compelling
infographic,
poster,
or
interactive
map
to
discover
potential
opportunities
for
geothermal
development.
The
competition
is
open
to
graduate,
undergraduate,
and
high
school
students
across
the
country.
An
educational
sponsor,
such
as
an
instructor/teacher
with
the
registrant’s
educational
institution
or
faculty/staff
member
affiliated
with
the
registrant’s
university,
is
required
for
each
team.
The
sponsor
should
only
help
guide
the
students
to
make
sure
the
products
are
accurate.
The
challenge
question
for
this
year’s
competition
is:
Geothermal
energy
is
difficult
to
understand
because
it
is
located
underground.
How
can
geospatial
mapping
increase
our
understanding
of
this
important
renewable
energy
resource?
How
can
GIS
improve
how
we
visualize
and
communicate
about
geothermal
energy?
Teams
can
use
a
variety
of
software
(public
or
private
license),
such
as
Tableau,
QGIS,
Grass
GIS,
City
Scape,
Arc
GIS,
or
any
other
software
suite/package
they
choose.
This
competition
will
not
only
help
students
develop
valuable
geospatial
mapping
skills,
it
will
increase
their
understanding
of
geothermal
power
and
its
potential
as
a
renewable
power
source.
Teams
must
register
and
enter
their
draft
submission
by
March
30th.

Scientific
Drilling
Concludes
in
the
Gulf
of
California
A
dapted
from
Information
by
the
JOIDES
Resolution
Science
Operator
The
JOIDES
Resolution
is
a
scientific
drilling
ship
used
by
the
International
Ocean
Discovery
Program
(IODP)
to
drill
into
the
ocean
floor
to
collect
and
study
core
samples.
One
of
its
latest
journeys
was
for
Expedition
385
where
it
drilled
at
a
new
site
-
Octopus
Mound. Also
known
as
Central
Seep,
the
mound
is
a
cold
methane
seep
located
in
Guaymas
Basin
in
the
Gulf
of
California.
There,
a
group
of
scientists
will
study
the
relationship
of
tecton-
ics,
magmatism,
sedimentation,
carbon
cycling,
and
potential
microbial
life,
as
well
as
the
fauna
and
animals
thriving
around
the
methane-rich
mound.
Magma
forms
in
the
upper
mantle
through
seafloor
spreading.
This
project
examined
the
very
young
spreading
system
of
the
Pacific
and
North
American
tec-
tonic
plates,
where
new
seafloor
is
being
created.
However,
in
this
system,
sediments
are
being
deposited
on
the
seafloor
very
quickly,
causing
the
magma
to
become
trapped
under
1600-1900
feet
of
organic-rich
marine
sediments.
These
isolated
pockets
of
hot
magma
eventually
move
sideways
and
solidify
into
hot
layers
of
intrusive
magma
rock
called
sills.
These
sills
become
interlayered
with
the
sediments.
At
a
safe
distance
of
three
miles
from
the
potentially
explosive
mound,
the
team
drilled
into
a
shallow
gas-rich
zone,
presumably
with
methane
hydrates
not
far
below
the
surface.
Although
this
is
a
cold
seep
site,
the
high
heat
flow
of
Guaymas
Basin
was
instantly
noticeable,
something
a
proper
cold
seep
wouldn’t
do.
Drilling
could
reveal
a
clue
to
the
answer.
The
drilling
team
decided
to
use
rotary
core
barrel
drilling
(RCB),
known
for
its
raw
power
and
speed,
to
exam-
ine
the
underground
conditions.
A
tungsten
carbide
bit
was
used
to
chew
through
the
extremely
hard
sediments
and
rock,
saving
only
the
central
core.
Immediately
after
core
recovery,
methane
and
light
alkane
levels
were
checked.
As
the
team
drilled
deeper,
they
knew
increased
gas
concentrations
were
possible,
making
these
safety
checks
a
crucial
part
of
the
process.
At
just
over
1174
feet
below
the
seafloor,
the
drill
crew
discovered
Octopus
Mound’s
little
secret,
it’s
sitting
on
top
of
a
very
deep
sill.
The
recovered
core
sample
was
stunning
and
the
crew
was
excited
to
see
such
a
good
quality,
textbook
sample
of
drilled
volcanic
rock
fresh
from
the
borehole.
In
the
end,
more
than
750
cores
were
extracted. With
a
recovery
rate
of
88%,
scientists
have
over
13,550
feet
of
recovered
cores
to
study.
The
core
description
team
worked
feverishly
to
identify
the
cores,
while
the
labs
revved
up
for
scientists
to
conduct
their
exami-
nations.
Site
reports
will
have
to
go
through
two
review
cycles
by
the
expe-
dition
cochiefs,
Professor
Andreas
Teske
from
the
Department
of
Marine
Sciences
at

Carolina-Chapel
Hill

Daniel
Lizarralde

scientist

the
Department
of

Common
Causes
of
Well
Failure
-
Contaminants
As
we
continue
our
discussion
of
common
causes
of
well
failure,
we
are
going
to
consider
one
of
the
more
perplexing
well
problems:
contaminants.
There
are
really
two
ways
to
deal
with
contaminants
in
a
well.
The
best
and
most
cost-effective
way
is
to
identify
the
contaminants
during
the
design
and
construction
phase,
then
build
the
well
accordingly
-
with
appropriate
seals
and
casing/grouting
zones
which
contain
higher
levels
of
contaminants
to
reduce
the
contaminants
to
levels
not
requiring
treatment.
This
must
be
balanced
against
water
production
from
the
various
zones
in
the
well.
Proper
zone
testing
can
identify
these
zones
during
the
test
boring
phase
and
the
final
well
can
be
designed
accordingly.
Of
course,
there
are
situations
where
there
is
a
relatively
uniform
distribution
of
contaminants
in
the
aquifer,
and
selectively
sealing
zones
may
not
be
an
effective
strategy,
so
at
that
point,
the
decision
must
be
made
as
to
whether
to
complete
the
test
well
as
a
production
well
and
commit
to
a
treatment
plant,
or
explore
another
location
less
likely
to
contain
contaminants
at
levels
requiring
treatment.
For
existing
wells
with
contaminant
issues,
vertical
flow
and
contaminant
profiling
can
often
pinpoint
intervals
of
higher
contaminant
concentrations
which
can
be
sealed
off
without
substantially
impacting
well
production
through
a
well
modification
process
involving
sealing
off
screen
zones
in
the
areas
of
highest
contaminant
inflow
to
the
well.
The
vertical
profiling
method-
ology
employs
assessing
flow
contribution
from
specific
zones
under
pumping
conditions,
utilizing
a
flow
meter
or
other
method,
balanced
against
depth-specific
sampling
for
contaminant
concentrations
to
produce
a
vertical
profile
of
the
well.
A
mass
bal-
ance
calculation
is
made
to
determine
which
zones
can
be
sealed
without
substantially
reducing
well
production
capacity.
Certain
contaminants
lend
themselves
better
to
the
well
profiling
and
modification
approach
more
than
others.
In
particular,
arsenic
is
often
associated
with
specific
geologic
horizons
and
rock
types
and,
by
identifying
high
arsenic
zones
via
well
profiling,
well
modifications
can
be
made
which
may
eliminate
the
requirement
for
expensive
arsenic
treatment
plants
in
many
cases.
Chromium
and
radionuclides
are
other
common
well
contaminants
which
often
have
a
correlation
to
specific
geologic
conditions.
Nitrates,
on
the
other
hand,
are
a
shallow
groundwater
issue.
Nitrate
impacts
in
wells
are
often
caused
by
an
inadequate
seal
in
areas
of
high-nitrate
groundwater.
This
goes
back
to
well
construction
decisions
as
repairing
seals
in
an
existing
well
can
be
challenging.
Contaminants
in
wells
do
not
necessarily
mean
a
failed
well
or
expensive
treatment
plants.
With
vertical
profiling
tech-
niques,
well
modification
can
be
a
cost-effective
alternative
to
the
much
more
expensive
options.

Exploring
Your
Mind
by
Harold
White
We
were
down
at
the
beach
in
Florence,
Oregon,
where
the
Siuslaw
River
runs
into
the
Pacific
Ocean
-
looking
like
millions
of
gallons
of
freshwater
per
minute.
There
is
a
lot
to
see
there.
A
lot
of
boats
in
the
water,
including
the
Coast
Guard;
several
birds
fishing
in
various
ways.
Tuajuana
and
I
noticed
a
seagull
walking
around
with
what
looked
like
an
airplane
in
its
mouth,
trying
to
swallow
it.
We
went
closer
and
stopped
about
20
feet
away.
The
seagull
had
a
huge
starfish
in
its
mouth,
with
one
star
arm
down
its
throat
and
two
star
arms
around
the
seagull’s
throat,
choking
it.
It
was
funny,
like
the
starfish
didn’t
want
to
go
where
the
gull
wanted.
The
gull
took
off,
flying
over
the
river
toward
the
ocean
on
the
other
side
of
the
jetty.
If
the
gull
drops
the
starfish
and
it
lands
it
the
water,
it
will
sure
have
a
story
to
tell.
I
read
a
story
in
The
Register-Guard
about
clear
plastic
bubble
diving
balls
from
Triton
Submarines
in
Florida.
The
bubble
craft
can
dive
7500
feet.
The
article
told
a
story
of
how
Patrick
Lahey,
president
of
the
company,
was
exploring
the
deep
Pacific
with
scientists
from
the
American
Museum
of
Natural
History,
when
he
blinked
a
flashlight
two
or
three
times
into
the
darkness.
He
said
an
animal
in
the
distance
flashed
back
the
same
number.
Can
they
count?
How
do
they
make
their
own
light?
How
do
they
get
the
message
if
the
fish
can’t
see
in
the
dark?
Why
would
an
anglerfish
dangle
bioluminescent
lures
in
front
of
their
needle-sharp
teeth?
Living
things
that
use
a
light
for
various
communications
in
the
deep
ocean
have
long
been
a
curiosity
for
me.
There
must
be
a
different
way
to
see.
What
is
seeing?
It’s
the
ability
for
your
eyes
to
receive
light
to
show
the
objects
you
are
looking
at.
The
light
hits
the
objects
then
reflects
to
your
vision.
Your
mind
makes
a
picture
from
this
incoming
energy.
Cameras
do
the
same
thing
taking
photos.
The
brain
works
this
way
during
photographic
memory,
so
all
things
with
eyes
have
photographic
memories.
When
you
look
at
old
grade
school
pictures,
you
recognize
your
classmates
because
you
are
comparing
the
faces
to
what
you
picture
in
your
mind.
Children
used
to
play
picture
games
to
improve
their
photographic
memory.
This
made
schooling
a
lot
easier.
When
asked
a
question,
they
could
give
a
better
answer
when
they
could
picture
in
their
mind
where
they
read
the
answer
before
in
a
study
paper
or
book.

SaMoTer
stated
construction
machinery
exports
grew
by
1.9%
in
the
first
nine
months
of
2019.
This
is
the
snapshot
provided
by
the
international
trade
report
-
analysis
of
Istat
data
by
the
SaMoTer
-
Prometeia
Outlook
that
monitors
Italy's
import/export
flows
in
the
construction
equipment
sector.
The
survey
indicates
exports
in
the
period
January-September
2019
improved
due
primarily
to
exports
of
concrete
machines
and
aggregate
preparation
machinery.
India
and
Europe
as
a
whole
were
among
the
areas
that
increased
their
imports
from
Italy:
earthmoving
machinery
and
equipment,
as
well
as
road
machinery,
while
concrete
machinery
also
posted
strong
growth
in
European
countries
and
North
Africa.

How
Important
is
Aluminum?
Compiled

Bonnie
Love, Editor,

orldWide

Once
more
precious
than
gold
or
silver,
aluminum
is
the
most
common
metal
found
in
the
earth’s
crust
and
the
third
most
common
element.
However,
it’s
never
found
in
metallic
form
in
its
natural
state,
it
is
actually
derived
from
bauxite
ore.
In
addition
to
providing
99%
of
metallic
aluminum,
bauxite
also
contains
minerals
gibbsite,
boehmite,
and
diaspore,
which
is
why
it
is
offi-
cially
considered
a
rock
and
not
a
mineral.
Once
bauxite
is
mined,
it
is
chemically
refined
through
the
Bayer
process
to
create
aluminum
oxide
(alumina).
Alumina
is
further
refined
using
the
Hall-Héroult
process
into
the
pure
metal
form
of
aluminum
using
an
electrolytic
process.
Before
the
discovery
of
the
Bayer
and
Hall-Héroult
processes,
aluminum
was
more
expensive
than
gold
or
silver.
It
takes
four
pounds
of
bauxite
to
produce
two
pounds
of
alumina,
which
produces
one
pound
of
aluminum.
In
addition
to
being
100%
recyclable,
aluminum’s
physical
properties
make
it
lightweight,
strong,
noncorrosive,
nonsparking,
non-
magnetic,
nontoxic,
and
noncombustible.
Here
are
some
interesting
facts
about
aluminum:
j
The
Wright
brothers
used
aluminum
to
build
key
parts
of
their
biplane’s
engine
because
they
couldn’t
find
a
manufacturer
to
provide
an
engine
which
was
light
enough
with
the
necessary
horsepower.
j
An
aluminum
can
be
recycled
continuously
with
no
loss
of
its
qualities.
In
fact,
nearly
75%
of
all
aluminum
ever
produced,
is
still
in
use
today.
j
Unopened
aluminum
cans
are
very
strong. Four
unopened
six-packs
of
cans
can
sup-
port
the
weight
of
a
two-ton
vehicle.
j
Aluminum
powder
was
used
as
the
primary
fuel
for
the
space
shuttle
solid
rocket
boosters,
as
well
as
fireworks.
j
Aluminum
reflects
92%
of
visible
light.
j
Since
it
is
highly
conductive
but
lightweight,
aluminum
is
used
to
produce
the
majority
of
wiring
for
the
country’s
electrical
transmission
networks.
j
Australia
is
the
world’s
leading
producer
of
bauxite,
followed
by
China,
Brazil,
Guinea,
and
India.
Although
the
U.S.
has
small
amounts
of
bauxite
ore
in
Arkansas,
Alabama,
and
Georgia,
very
little
bauxite
mining
is
done
in
the
country
today.
j
Aluminum-based
chemicals
can
be
found
in
deodorants
and
cosmetics.
So
whether
you
realize
it
or
not,
aluminum
is
a
very
important
product
most
of
us
use
every
day.
In
fact,
people
use
more
aluminum
today
than
at
any
point
in
the
history
of
commercial
production.
Aluminum
is
the
metal
of
modern-day
life.

Successful
Selling
is
not
a
Transaction.
It’s
a
Process.
by
Tim
Connor
J
Sales
Transaction
Approach:
A
one-time
action
or
activity
involving
two
parties
where
a
transfer
of
services
or
property
is
offered
in
exchange
for
financial
gain.
J
Sales
Process
Approach:
A
series
of
preplanned
actions
or
steps
taken
to
achieve
a
successful
outcome.
It
doesn’t
matter
what
you
sell
-
homes,
computers,
services
of
any
kind,
air-
craft,
or
clothing.
It
doesn’t
matter
whether
your
products
or
services
cost
less
than
ten
bucks
or
more
than
ten
million.
It
doesn’t
matter
whether
you
are
selling
a
prod-
uct
or
service
with
a
global
reputation
or
is
a
startup
organization.
It
doesn’t
matter
whether
you
are
a
long-term
seasoned
sales
pro
or
just
getting
started.
Have
I
made
my
point
yet?
When
it
comes
to
a
successful
sales
outcome,
what
matters
is
the
approach
you
use.
One
of
the
biggest
mistakes
many
salespeople
(anyone
who
sells
anything
to
anyone)
make
is
they
use
a
transactional
rather
than
a
process
approach.
Let
me
explain.
Here
are
the
short
versions:
Example
one
(Transaction
approach)
-
You
make
an
appointment,
you
show
up,
you
give
your
presentation,
and
you
try
to
close
the
deal.
Example
two
(Process
approach)
-
You
do
some
prospect
research.
You
inves-
tigate
an
issue
or
topic
that
might
impact
their
willingness
or
ability
of
them
to
buy
from
you.
You
attempt
to
establish
buyer/seller
leverage
-
a
referral,
an
endorse-
ment,
etc.
from
someone
the
prospect
knows.
You
ask
lots
and
lots
of
questions
before
you
launch
into
your
presentation.
You
maintain
control
of
the
buying/selling
process.
You
tailor
every
aspect
of
your
message
and
product
or
service
to
the
pro-
file
of
the
prospect.
You
ask
for
the
business
and
close
the
deal.
So,
here
are
just
a
few
of
the
ways
poor
salespeople
fail
to
follow
a
process
approach.
Yes,
there
are
many
more
and
in
respect
to
your
time,
I
am
keeping
these
short.
1.
They
quote
price
too
early
in
the
process.
Just
because
the
prospect
has
asked
for
a
price,
doesn’t
mean
they
need
it
right
away
or
are
even
ready
for
it.
Prospects
who
want
you
to
go
to
price
early
are
generally
price
shoppers
and
may
not
be
worth
a
great
deal
of
your
time.
Price
is
a
function
of
perceived
value.
If
you
have
not
had
a
chance
to
build
value,
the
price
will
always
seem
high.
2.
They
talk
too
much.
They
don't
ask
enough
questions
early
in
the
sales
process.
They
just
ramble
on
and
on.
These
salespeople
feel
or
believe
that
people
buy
because
of
the
various
features
of
their
product
or
service.
Everyone’s
reasons
for
buying
your
product/service
are
unique.
3.
They
send
out
literature
when
asked,
without
first
qualifying
the
prospect.
Billions
of
dollars
of
literature
go
in
the
trash
every
year.
Requesting
literature
is
often
just
a
ploy
or
tactic
to
get
rid
of
you.
You
think:
“Ah-ha
.
.
.
they
want
information.”
They
are
thinking:
“Finally,
I
got
this
idiot
out
of
my
life.”
4.
They
rely
too
heavily
on
technology
-
using
e-mails,
websites,
texts,
etc.
Selling
is
about
trust
and
relationships,
and
you
don’t
build
those
by
typing
a
bunch
of
keys
on
a
device
and
then
hitting
the
“send”
button.
5.
They
lose
control
of
the
sales
process
or
never
get
it
at
the
beginning.
I’m
not
talking
here
about
manipulation,
but
the
ability
to
have
the
process
proceed
according
to
your
plans
and
steps
which
are
in
the
best
interests
of
the
prospect,
and
not
necessarily
the
same
plans
of
the
prospect.
6.
They
don’t
realize
that
if
there
is
a
trust
issue
in
the
sales
relationship,
what
will
get
it
to
the
surface
really
fast
is
money.
So
don’t
wait
too
long
in
the
process
to
bring
up
the
issue
of
fees,
terms,
deposits,
etc.
There
is
a
professional
way
to
accomplish
this
without
referring
specifically
to
the
price
of
your
product
or
service.
7.
They
leave
“will
calls”
when
telephoning
a
prospect.
Please,
if
you
are
trying
to
sell
me
something,
don’t
expect
me
to
do
your
work
for
you.
Trust
me,
I
will
guarantee
fewer
than
5%
of
your
“will
calls”
will
ever
happen
-
and
this
includes
less
than
1%
of
your
-
reach
outs
waiting
for
a
response.
8.
They
fail
to
observe
and
pay
attention
to
early
subtle
signals
given
by
the
prospect.
If
you
are
focused
only
on
yourself,
your
presentation,
and
your
product
or
service,
you
will
miss
some
signs
or
signals
during
the
process
that
will
give
you
accurate
clues
as
to
the
prospect’s
real
or
serious
intent.
I
could
go

Dispelling
the
Myths
Surrounding
Hydraulic
Fracturing
Part

-
Hydraulic
Fracturing
Causes
Earthquakes
-
Although
many
people
assume
hydraulic
fracturing
causes
earthquakes,
there
are
numerous
studies
proving
it
doesn’t
cause
dangerous,
widespread
earthquakes.
The
largest,
most
up-to-date
database
of
earthquakes
suspected
of
being
triggered
by
human
activity
(induced)
is
administered
by
researchers
at
the
University
of
Durham
and
University
of
Newcastle
upon
Tyne
in
the
UK.
This
database
contains
records
going
back
to
the
1800s,
and
according
to
it,
hydraulic
fracturing
has
been
conclusively
linked
to
only
6%
of
all
human-caused
earthquakes,
44
earthquakes
overall.
Considering
there
are
at
least
1.1
million
active
wells
using
hydraulic
fracturing
in
the
United
States,
this
number
is
very
small.
In
the
U.S.,
only
nine
earthquakes
have
been
conclusively
linked
to
the
process
and,
of
those
nine,
only
three
were
large
enough
to
be
felt
on
the
surface
with
vibrations
similar
to
the
passing
of
a
truck.
However,
researchers
have
noticed
a
correlation
between
hydraulic
fracturing
sites
and
a
higher
likelihood
of
earthquakes.
So,
if
it’s
not
hydraulic
fracturing
causing
earthquakes,
what
is?
Analysts
believe
it’s
the
wastewater
disposal
process.
Wastewater,
a
normal
byproduct
of
gas
and
oil
extraction
operations,
is
typically
disposed
of
through
injection
wells
deep
underground
in
high-permeability
formations.
While
it’s
true
wastewater
is
produced
in
hydraulic
fracturing
operations,
it
is
also
produced
in
nearly
all
other
gas
and
oil
drilling
and
production
processes,
even
traditional
methods.
It’s
not
the
drilling
itself
causing
tremors.
During
wastewater
disposal,
the
fluid
is
injected
into
well
at
much
higher
pressures
and
volumes
than
with
the
fracturing
process.
The
practice,
by
law,
is
overseen
by
local
or
regional
Environmental
Protection
Agency
(EPA)
offices.
What’s
really
interesting,
is
some
researchers
believe
once
fracturing
operations
conclude,
it’s
possible
the
area
would
be
less
likely
to
experience
an
earthquake
compared
to
similar
areas
where
no
fracturing
has
been
done.
Joe
Leimkuhler,
vice
president
for
drilling
at
LLOG
Exploration
observed,
“Long-term,
once
a
well
produces
enough
volume
of
fluid
that
exceeds
the
volume
of
water
and
sand
that
you’ve
putin
the
fractal
well,
once
you’ve
taken
more
material
out
than
you’ve
in,
you’ve
lowered
the
overall
stress
state
of
the
system,
and
you
can
make
an
argument
that
on
a
regional
basis
you’ve
actually
decreased
the
tendency
for
earthquakes
and
not
increased
it
long
term.”
Researchers
in
Canada,
at
the
University
of
Alberta,
also
conducted
a
two-year
study
to
determine
how
much
seismic
activity
experiencedbetween
1965
-
2014
could
be
correlated
with
increased
gas
and
oil
production.
The
examined
regions
included
sites
in
the
U.S.states
of
North
Dakota,
Ohio,
Oklahoma,
Pennsylvania,
Texas,
and
West
Virginia,
as
well
as
Canadian
provinces
of
Alberta,
British
Columbia,
and
Saskatchewan.
The
conclusion
-
analysis
of
oil
and
gas
production
versus
seismicity
rates
in
six
other
States
in
the
USA
and
three
provinces
in
Canada
finds
no
State/Province-wide
correlation
between
increased
seismicity
and
hydrocarbon
production
.
One
of
the
researchers
even
went
so
far
as
to
say,
“It’s
not
as
simple
as
saying
‘we
do
a
hydraulic
fracturing
treatment,and
therefore
we
are
going
to
cause
felt
seismicity.’
It’s
actually
the
opposite.
Most
of
it
is
perfectly
safe.”
Even
the
relationship
between
wastewater
injection
wells
and
seismicity
stands
on
shaky
ground.
The
Institute
for
Geophysics
at
the
University
of
Texas
at
Austin
conducted
a
study
attempting
to
determine
if
earthquakes
in
the
Barnett
Shale
region
of
Texas,
were
a
danger
to
the
public
and
whether
they
could
be
connected
to
the
state’s
numerous
wastewater
injection
wells.
According
to
this
study,
the
presence
of
injection
wells
increased
the
chances
of
small
earthquakes;
it
also
showed
there
were
a
significant
number
of
wells
with
similar
injection
rates,
that
did
not
experi-
enceearthquakes
in
the
area.
EPA
found
similar
results
in
its
study
of
30,000
wastewater
disposal
wells.
For
example,
at
the
time
of
this
report,
there
were
approximately
2700
active
disposal
wells
in
Louisiana,
with
no
recent
signif-
icant
seismic
events
occurring
as
a
result
of
the
disposal
activities.
Advances
in
hydraulic
fracturing
have
led
to
decreased
energy
prices,
saving
billions
of
dollars
for
consumers,
prompting
economic
growth.
The
process
does
not
pollute
water
or
air,
cause
public
health
problems,
or
dangerous
earthquakes.

NASA
Tests
New
Drill
for
Mars
Exploration
Adapted
from
Information
by
the
National
Aeronautics
a
nd
Space
Administration
(NASA)
Rovers
exploring
the
surface
of
Mars
have
been
limited
as
to
how
deep
they
can
drill,
and
only
able
to
go
a
few
inches.
Scientists
at
NASA
are
currently
testing
a
drill
which
may
be
capable
of
penetrating
six
feet
into
the
red
soil
of
Mars.
Scientists
believe
drilling
deeper
may
reveal
a
world
we’ve
never
seen
up
close
be-
fore,
one
where
there’s
a
chance
for
life.
The
drill,
K-REX
2
developed
in
partnership
with
Honeybee
Robotics,
is
attached
to
a
rover
carrying
a
suite
of
instruments,
which
can
analyze
soil
samples
and
discover
potential
biosig-
natures
of
microbial
life.
This
project,
the
Atacama
Rover
Astrobiology
Drilling
Studies,
or
ARADS,
is
an
important
demonstration
of
NASA’s
ability
to
take
these
technologies
to
Mars.
The
new
drill
is
being
put
to
the
test
in
the
driest,
most
Mars-like
place
that
exists
on
Earth
-
the
Atacama
Desert
in
Chile.
“ARADS
is
all
about
preparing
NASA
to
search
for
life
on
Mars,”
said
Brian
Glass,
principal
investigator
for
the
ARADS
program
at
NASA’s
Ames
Research
Center
in
California’s
Silicon
Valley.
“Developing
the
science
instruments
and
robotics
we’ll
need
is
a
big
part
of
that,
and
so
is
figuring
out
how
we
actually
run
the
mission.
The
best
way
to
practice
that
is
to
go
and
do
it
here
on
Earth.”
Although
the
driest
parts
of
the
Atacama
still
contain
a
thousand
times
more
water
than
Mars,
it
serves
as
the
perfect
testing
ground
for
Glass
and
his
team
of
engineers
and
scientists.
Over
the
past
four
years,
the
team
has
travelled
to
the
Atacama
to
develop
the
ability
to
detect
remains
of
ancient
life,
or
life
that’s
somehow
surviving
underground.
Past
robotic
missions
to
Mars
have
indicated
the
planet
not
only
had
oceans
of
water,
but
also
a
denser
atmosphere,
which
means
it
could
have
supported
life
at
one
time,
or
possibly
even
now.
“If
there’s
any
life
on
Mars’
subsurface,
it’s
likely
in
the
form
of
microbes
struggling
to
live
off
very
trace
amounts
of
water
in
soil
or
salt
layers,”
said
Arwen
Davé,
systems
engineer
for
ARADS.
“Based
on
what
the
drill
can
tell
us
about
the
soil,
we
can
detect
where
those
layers
are,
maybe
even
leading
us
to
where
the
life
is.”
Testing
the
remote
capabilities
of
the
rover
was
done
with
one
team
in
Chile,
while
another
team
remained
at
NASA
Ames
to
operate
a
“mission
control”
room
where
they
analyzed
results
from
afar
and
instructed
the
rover
where
to
drill
in
the
desert.
This
drill
will
not
only
need
to
dig
deeply,
it
needs
to
dig
smartly.
As
any
drill
operator
can
attest,
drills
can
get
stuck
as
they
chew
through
the
ground,
and
this
drill
is
no
different.
With
the
closest
humans
millions
of
miles
away,
if
the
drill
gets
stuck
while
on
Mars,
it
could
mean
the
end
of
the
mission.
For
drills
operating
on
Mars,
autonomy
is
more
than
a
feature,
it’s
a
re-
quirement.
To
help
the
drill
operate
without
real-time
human
input,
every
motor
on
the
drill
is
continuously
collecting
feedback
-
how
much
pressure
the
drill
bit
runs
into,
the
movement
of
each
motor.
This
data
will
be
logged
and
interpreted
by
the
drill
allowing
it
to
course-correct
on
the
fly.
If
it
runs
into
a
tougher
material,
the
drill
bit
can
apply
more
force.
If
the
drill
gets
stuck,
it
knows
exactly
where
it
is
and
how
to
dislodge
itself.
The
result
is
a
drill
capable
of
digging
through
almost
any
material
on
its
own,
producing
a
soil
sample
regardless
of
the
challenges
it
may
face.
The
data
collected
by
the
drill
telling
it
how
to
operate
in
specific
soil
conditions,
can
also
let
it
know
where
to
look
for
life.
“What’s
unique
about
this
drill
is
that
it
can
take
you
from
dirt
to
data,
all
on
its
own,”
said
Thomas
Stucky,
the
sample-
handling
software
lead
for
ARADS.
“All
the
scientists
have
to
do
is
point
the
rover
to
where
it
needs
to
dig,
tell
the
drill
how
deep
to
go,
and
the
drill
will
figure
out
the
rest.”
This
same
autonomous
drill
may
also
end
up
on
the
Moon
as
part
of
NASA’s
goal
to
locate
water
and
other
resources
to
support
a
sustainable,
long-term
human
presence
in
deep
space.
With
a
“hands-
free”
drill
in
its
toolbox,
NASA
hopes
to
uncover
the
hidden
worlds
just
beneath
the
surface
of
other
planets.
Perhaps
this
will
lead
to
discovering
the
secrets
to
liv-
ing
beyond
Earth.

The
Cornerstone
of
Your
Training
Foundation
A
dapted
from
Information
by
Equipment
Corporation
of
America
Over
the
past
100
years,
Equipment
Corporation
of
America
(ECA)
has
provided
advanced,
innovative,
and
reliable
drilling,
pile
driving,
hoisting
and
rigging,
slurry
cutting,
soil
mixing,
and
soil
stabilization
equipment
to
the
construction
industry.
Their
product
knowledge,
responsive
service,
and
support
meets
and
exceeds
customers’
expectations
every
day.
After
having
success
with
numerous
classroom
training
sessions,
ECA
knew
they
wanted
to
make
a
more
serious
commitment
to
practical
training
-
to
elevate
their
technicians
to
the
next
level,
and
on
the
customer
side,
fill
a
gap
in
the
U.S.
training
opportunities.
The
perfect
location
was
determined
to
be
a
one-acre
parcel
adjacent
to
ECA
Jacksonville
in
Green
Cove
Springs,
Florida,
that
was
being
used
for
storage.
After
sitework,
fencing,
and
signage
went
up,
the
ECA
Training
Center
was
established.
Although
the
company
has
eight
other
locations
in
the
U.S.
and
Canada,
Jacksonville
was
the
obvious
choice
because
the
moderate
climate
allows
cus-
tomers
to
receive
training
year-round.
“The
goal
from
day
one
was
to
have
a
dedicated
location
separate
of
our
current
facilities
where
we
could
operate
a
machine,
drill
a
hole,
and
have
live
exercises,”
Dave
Schell,
ECA’s
corporate
director
of
parts
and
service
recalled.
“The
training
center
has
been
key
to
fulfilling
our
customers’
training
needs.”
The
facility
offers
a
host
of
training
types
and
exams.
Currently,
the
focus
is
on
three
categories
of
training:
Technical
Training
-
provides
basic
knowledge
of
the
principles
of
electrical
and
hydraulic
systems
for
equipment
tech-
nicians.
The
program
includes
both
classroom
and
hands-on
instruction.
Operator
Training
-
focuses

We
Learn
the
True
Cost
of
Water
when
the
Well
Runs
Dry
Last
month,
I
wrote
an
article
on
overpumping
groundwater
and
some
of
the
impacts
with
increasing
demands
on
ground-
water
from
population
growth
and
associated
groundwater
demands.
I
am
not
generally
known
as
a
pessimist;
however,
I
have
been
involved
with
the
management
of
our
groundwater
resources
since
1974,
and
there
are
some
things
that
concern
me
as
demands
are
increasing
on
our
potable
ground-
water
and
surface
water
resources.
In
Florida,
part
of
the
problem
is
directly
related
to
the
rapid
growth
of
the
state’s
population
from
about
2
million,
to
over
22
million
in
the
last
60
years.
We
rely
almost
exclusively
(greater
than
95%)
upon
groundwater
for
potable
drinking
supplies.
Surface
water
and
desalinization
are
only
a
small
percentage
of
water
used
for
drinking
water
purposes.
Some
of
the
problems
which
continue
to
increase
include:
1)
Exceeding
aquifer
safe
yields
from
pumping
large
volumes
of
groundwater
greater
than
the
ability
of
the
recharge
capacity
of
the
aquifers.
The
solution(s)
are
often
more
expensive
and
energy-consuming
than
past
practices.
2)
Susceptibility
of
shallow
groundwater
to
many
sources
of
contamination,
includ-
ing
leaking
gas
stations,
poorly
designed
landfills,
past
improper
disposal
practices
for
various
chemicals,
garbage,
etc.
3)
High
nutrient
discharges
from
septic
tanks
and
agricultural
chemicals,
which
could
render
drinking
water
above
the
limits
for
contaminants
and
promotes
algae
blooms
in
rivers,
lakes,
and
springs.
Nutrients
are
causing
more
and
larger
prob-
lems
every
year
in
springs,
lakes,
and
along
Florida’s
beaches.
Bottom
line,
we
are
depleting
our
good
quality,
natural
resource
faster
than
it
is
being
restored.
We,
as
well
drilling
professionals
and
water
resource
managers,
need
to
help
spread
our
knowledge
and
expertise
when
we
see
our
groundwater
being
impacted.

Drilling
on
Prospective
Property
Adapted
from
a
News
Release
by
NexGen
Energy
Ltd.
An
exploration
drilling
program
is
underway
in
the
Athabasca
Basin
in
Saskatchewan,
Canada.
NexGen
Energy
Ltd.
announced
two
rigs
will
drill
a
minimum
of
13,000
feet
on
its
SW1
property,
look-
ing
to
confirm
the
existence
of
uranium.
Since
acquiring
the
property
in
2012,
NexGen
has
systemati-
cally
developed
it
through
testing
with
numerous
studies
and
geo-
physical
surveys
over
the
last
five
years.
The
resulting
signature
on
the
property
displayed
strong
similarities
to
their
Rook
I
property
which
hosts
the
Arrow
Deposit,
Canada’s
largest
to-be-developed
uranium
deposit,
currently
in
the
Environmental
Assessment
process.
Historic
drilling
analysis
also
revealed
prospective
struc-
ture
and
alteration
coinciding
with
highly
favorable
geophysical
properties
for
potential
uranium
mineralization.
"The
2019
SW1
exploration
drill
program
is
the
culmination
of
extensive
detailed
work
by
the
NexGen
Team
for
the
development
of
the
SW1
property
-
a
methodical
build
of
focused
work
and
high-
level
interpretation
that
is
akin
to
the
strategy
that
led
to
the
discov-
ery
of
the
Arrow
Deposit
in
February
2014.
We
are
looking
forward
to
the
opportunity
to
drill
test
targets
with
analogous
geophysical
signatures
to
Arrow,
and
excited
about
this
next
stage
of
explorationon
the
SW1
property,"
said
Troy
Boisjoli,
vice
president
of
operations
and
project
development.

Complaint:
“A

I

Ever
complained
about
anything?
Come
on
-
get
real
-
sooner
or
later
we
all
have
an
issue
with
something
or
someone.
I
thought
I
would
share
some
of
the
really
stupid
things
I
have
heard
or
observed
people
complaining
about.
I
didn’t
make
any
of
these
up,
they
are
real.
1
I
live
in
an
apartment
complex
of
over
100
units.
I
have
lived
here
for
several
years
and
have
a
great
relationship
with
the
resident
manager.
She
recently
told
me
the
person
who
lived
next
to
me
complained
the
apartment
trash
receptacle
where
everyone
drops
off
their
trash,
was
too
dirty
-
and
she
complained
to
the
town
executives
about
it.
1
I
had
lunch
at
a
restaurant
this
week,
which
I
regularly
visit
a
few
times
a
month.
While
I
was
waiting
for
my
server
to
bring
my
meal,
the
person
in
the
booth
behind
me
started
berating
the
server
because
the
mustard
container
was
empty.
Then
off
they
went
on
the
sun
coming
through
the
window
and
the
carpet
under
their
table
was
dirty.
Need
I
say
more?
The
entire
time
I
sat
there,
this
idiot
complained
about
something.
Come
on
folks
.
.
.
get
a
life
and
lighten
up!
1
I
love
zoos
and,
whenever
I’m
in
a
new
city,
I
always
visit
the
local
zoo.
Well,
a
few
months
ago,
I
overheard
a
visitor
share
the
following
with
the
caretaker:
“The
animals
at
the
zoo
looked
very
sad
and
it
made
our
children
cry.
Can’t
they
train
them
to
smile?”
Okay
-
yes
there
are
real
issues
we
have
the
right
to
complain
about
now
and
then
-
such
as
when
the
person
sitting
behind
you
on
a
five-hour
flight
keeps
kicking
your
seat,
when
your
neighbor’s
two
dogs
bark
all
night,
when
someone
parks
in
front
of
your
driveway
so
you
can’t
get
out,
when
you
find
hair
in
your
pasta
at
a
restaurant,
when
you
are
trying
to
enjoy
a
movie
at
the
theater
and
the
people
behind
you
just
won’t
shut
up
.
.
.
So
let
me
close
with
a
question:
What
are
a
few
of
your
pet
peeves
that
cause
you
to
finally
complain
to
someone,
or
anyone
and
everyone?

Testing
New
Technology
for
Geothermal
Drilling
A
dapted
from
Information
by
Strada Global
Run
by
fourth-generation
well
drilling
professionals,
Strada
Global
is
a
technology-based
company
in
the
British
Isles
focussed
on
deep
drilling.
Ben
Strange,
CEO
for
the
company
designed
a
unique,
patented,
Fluid
Hammer
Operating
System
(FHOS)
which
uses
dual
circulation
techniques
to
improve
drilling
speed
and
performance.
“My
grandfather
and
great-
grandfather
drilled
water
bores
in
the
outback
of
Western
Australia
.
.
.
My
family
[has]
specialized
in
reverse
circulation
d
rilling
which
produces
rock
samples
to
analyze
for
mineral
deposits.
Improving
drilling
methods
and
safety
has
always
been
important
to
us
.
.
.
We’ve
spent
generations
in
this
industry,
innovating
and
inventing
the
way
we
drill
and,
as
a
result,
we’ve
developed
an
extensive
drilling-related
patent
portfolio.
We’ve
redesigned
drilling
from
the
ground
down.
When
we
saw
the
issues
the
industry
faced,
with
drilling
in
hard
granite,
and
especially
with
geothermal
access,
we
knew
we
had
the
drilling
knowledge
.
.
.
to
turn
the
problem
around
and
finally
solve
those
challenges.
Our
low
cost
and
fast,
deep
drilling
methods
make
many
projects
possible
and
profitable,
irrespective
of
resource
depth
and
local
geology.
Up
to
now,
drilling
this
quickly
and
efficiently,
in
hard
terrain,
has
only
been
possible
in
certain
geographies
and
parts
of
the
world.
With
our
technology,
that
map
is
unlimited,”
he
stated.
The
company
recently
announced
it
secured
funding
to
complete
the
testing
phase
of
FHOS.
Once
testing
is
finished,
experts
believe
the
system
will
enable
deep
drilling
to
unlock
previously
inaccessible
sources
of
geothermal
energy,
in
any
terrain.
The
technology
could
also
be
used
for
critical
infrastructure
projects
requiring
deep
drilling.
“We
are
absolutely
delighted
that
we
have
secured
this
new
investment,
and
are
able
to
now
complete
our
testing.
At
times,
we
have
had
a
difficult
path
to
get
here,
but
we
remain
absolutely
convinced
that
our
technology,
when
tested,
is
going
to
open
up
our
ability
to
access
geothermal
energy
across
the
globe.
We
are
incredibly
grateful
to
our
investors
and
our
fantastic
technical
and
operations
team,
who
all
share
our
vision
for
the
future,”
Strange
said.
As
the
world
moves
toward
sustainable,
renewable
power,
geothermal
sources
are
becoming
more
appealing,
however,
the
costs
associated
with
drilling
wells
can
be
an
issue.
The
company
hopes
this
technology
will
be
a
game-changer
for
ac-
cessing
hot,
dry
rock
geothermal
energy
sources,
ultimately
changing
the
way
the
world
is
powered.

Testimonial

continued
“The
[drilling
contractors]
then
went
to
the
second
location
this
other
gentleman
selected.
This
was
at
a
slightly
lower
elevation
and
about
300
feet
farther
away
from
the
house.
My
husband
and
I
couldn’t
bear
to
watch,
so
we
stayed
away
while
they
were
drilling.
A
couple
of
hours
later,
more
bad
news.
Granite
was
again
encountered.
(So
much
for
the
scientific
approach.)
They
were
prepared
to
try
a
new
location
at
random,
in
a
different
direction,
and
even
further
away,
but
my
husband
told
them
to
stop,
and
that
we
needed
to
regroup.
Needless
to
say,
we
were
devastated.
We
were
now
the
proud
owners
of
three
dry
holes
that
cost
a
lot
of
money;
money
we
had
planned
on
using
to
build
our
dream
home
and
feeding
and
clothing
our
three
young
children.
My
husband
was
then
able
to
contact
Jim
again,
and
explained
how
desperate
we
were.
Without
water
we
would
be
the
proud
owners
of
a
very
expensive
new
home
without
a
water
supply.
Jim
agreed
to
come
out
the
next
Saturday
to
dowse
the
property,
and
he
assured
my
husband
that
we
would
be
living
in
our
dream
home
“with
a
water
supply!”
Saturday
morning
arrived
and
Jim
and
Carol
arrived
at
our
seemingly
cursed
piece
of
property.
They
said
they
had
never
encountered
a
piece
of
property
as
large
as
ours
where
they
were
unable
to
locate
a
good
water
source.
They
spent
well
over
an
hour
on
the
property
and
searched
the
whole
area.
The
more
time
that
passed,
the
more
worried
we
became.
On
the
entire
property,
Jim
found
only
two
promising
sites.
The
two
locations
were
actually
very
close
to
our
house,
and
right
next
to
our
driveway!
We
would
never
in
a
million
years
have
opted
to
drill
on
those
sites
on
our
own.
Carol
placed
their
name
flags
along
what
they
said
was
an
underground
water
flow,
and
marked
the
direction
of
the
flow.
The
hard
part
for
us
was
waiting
until
the
following
Monday
for
the
well
[drilling
crew]
to
arrive.
I
was
unable
to
be
on-site
when
they
started
drilling,
but
my
husband
was
there
for
the
start
of
the
drilling.
After
watching
them
set
up,
he
couldn’t
bear
to
watch
the
drilling,
and
left
the
site
to
do
some
carpentry
work
inside
our
new
home.
Later
that
morning,
he
got
a
text
message
from
the
[drilling
contractors]
saying,
“Things
are
looking
great!
We’re
only
at
25
feet
and
getting
over
30
gallons
a
minute,
with
no
granite
in
sight!”
Gary
called
me
immediately
and
shared
the
good
news.
We
both
began
to
start
breathing
again.
In
the
days
that
followed,
we
learned
that
we
have
the
best
well
in
the
whole
area.
Gary
called
Jim
and
Carol
that
night
to
update
them.
They
had
already
heard
the
good
news
from
the
well
[drilling
contractor],
but
Gary
filled
them
in
on
all
the
details.
We
will
invite
Jim
and
Carol
to
our
open
house
celebration
when
we
get
settled
into
our
new
home!
Gary
and
I
will
forever
be
grateful
for
how
they
helped
us
with
their
water
dowsing
ability.
The
Kuebelbecks
are
truly
a
Godsend.”

Diamond
Button
Bits
for
Top
Hammer
Drilling
A
dapted
from
Information
by Robit
Plc
Robit
is
launching
diamond
button
bits
for
top
hammer
drilling.
Most
bits
use
hard
metal
buttons,
but
in
the
new
Robit
Diamond
Button
Series
bits
have
an
industrial
diamond
coating.
This
lasts
a
lot
longer
than
regular
bits
and
does
not
need
to
be
sharp-
ened.
The
company
has
been
developing
the
process
for
five
years.
The
diamond
coating
on
the
buttons
is
actually
made
the
same
way
diamonds
are
made
in
nature,
with
high
pressure
and
heat,
which
makes
it
even
more
durable
than
a
natural
diamond.
“The
coating
has
several
layers,
which
ensures
adherence
and
enables
the
diamond
bit
to
withstand
the
shocks
and
heat
fluctuations
of
top
hammer
drilling.
Robit
Group
has
previously
used
the
diamond
coating
with
success
in
oil
and
gas
operations
in
softer
substrates.
Now
the
durability
of
diamond
is
offered
for
the
first
time
for
shock
drilling
in
hard
rock,”
explained
Robit
Plc’s
Niko
Ojala,
R&D
(research
and
development)
engineer
and
materials
specialist.
Field
tests
have
been
overwhelmingly
positive
with
improving
results
and
great
success.
The
company
has
signed
an
agreement
with
the
Agnico
Eagle
Kittilä
mine
in
Finland
to
start
using
the
Diamond
Button
Series.
The
mining
operation
hopes
the
diamond
bits
will
increase
the
efficiency
of
remote
drilling.
“When
drilling
hard
granite,
you
may
have
to
sharpen
-
i.e.
change
-
a
traditional
hard
metal
button
bit,
for
example
after
[about
260
feet],
while
with
the
di-
amond
button
bit
you
can
drill
nearly
[3280
feet].
And
as
the
diamond
buttons
do
not,
in
practice,
wear
out,
then
their
penetrating
ability
does
not
deteriorate
like
regular
hard
metal
buttons.
Drilling
speed
therefore
remains
the
same
throughout
the
bit’s
time
of
use.
Similarly,
the
di-
ameter
of
the
borehole
does
not
decrease
as
the
bit
ages,
resulting
in
a
more
consistent
and
predictable
end
result
in
production
drilling.
The
many
times
longer
change
interval
of
the
bit
saves
time
and
is
particularly
important
for
remote-controlled
drill
rigs
in
fully
automated
mining
environments
where
people
are
not
present
during
the
process,”
concluded
Ojala.

Master
Fear
of
Change
~
You
Can’t
Stop
Change;
All
You
Can
Do
is
Prepare
When
I
was
a
kid,
I
hated
Burger
King
because
they
put
sweet
pickle
relish
on
their
regular
ham-
burgers,
and
I
hated
sweet
pickle
relish.
They
put
mayonnaise
on
the
Whopper,
and
I
hated
mayonnaise.
And,
I
know
what
you're
thinking:
Why
didn’t
I
get
the
fish
sandwich?
Well,
they
put
tartar
sauce
on
it,
and
you
know
what
tartar
sauce
is?
It's
sweet
pickle
relish
mixed
into
mayonnaise.
I
was
doubly
screwed.
Now
some
of
my
younger
readers
are
probably
wondering
why
didn't
I
just
ask
them
to
make
a
plain
hamburger?
Back
then,
they
wouldn't
do
that.
I
remember
my
dad
asking
them
to
do
it
once,
and
they
flat
out
refused.
You
have
to
understand
the
mentality
of
the
fast
food
industry
back
then,
the
key
word
was
FAST.
They
worked
up
a
recipe
MOST
people
liked
and
prepared
the
food
EXACTLY
that
way.
If
you
wanted
something
different,
you
could
go
down
the
street
to
the
diner
where
they
had
short-order
cooks,
and
you
could
WAIT.
Then
one
day
in
1973,
I
heard
the
most
beautiful
song
on
the
television:
“Have
it
your
way,
have
it
your
way.
Have
it
your
way
at
Burger
King.
Hold
the
pickles,
hold
the
lettuce.
Special
orders
don't
upset
us.
All
we
ask
is
that
you
let
us
serve
it
your
way!”
I
heard
that,
and
cried
out:
“Mom,
Dad,
can
we
go
to
Burger
King?”
They
looked
at
me
like
I
was
out
of
my
mind
(but
they
hadn’t
heard
the
commercial).
Meanwhile,
McDonald's
was
laughing
(along
with
all
the
other
fast
food
chains),
because
they
thought
Burger
King
was
wasting
its
time
and
money.
In
their
opinion,
there
was
NO
WAY
anyone
could
individualize
food
orders
and
still
be
FAST
-
it
could
NOT
be
done.
Besides,
Burger
King
was
having
to
retrofit
their
kitchens
and
hire
additional
employees.
It
simply
did
not
make
sense
to
Burger
King’s
competitors.
It
didn't
take
long,
however,
before
they
realized
Burger
King
was
robbing
them
of
market
share.
Then
all
the
fast
food
chains
-
not
just
the
hamburger
restaurants
-
adapted
and
followed
suit.
Burger
King’s
organizational
change
forced
a
trans-
formative
change
on
the
market
-
one
which
caused
an
entire
industry
to
change
the
way
they
were
doing
business.
The
problem
with
change
is
it
makes
most
people
anxious,
or
worse
-
afraid.
It’s
fear
of
the
unknown
that
does
this.
Re-
cently,
my
bank
was
bought
by
a
bigger
bank.
I
was
immediately
worried
because
I
had
been
through
a
merger
before
with
a
different
bank,
and
I
thought,
“Now
what
hassles
am
I
going
to
have
to
endure
because
of
this?”
It
turned
out
to
be
not
as
bad
as
I
feared.
There
were
some
changes
I
liked,
and
some
I
didn’t,
but
the
overall
transition
didn’t
take
up
too
much
of
my
time.
Change
is
inevitable,
change
is
constant,
change
is
what
you
find
underneath
seat
cushions.
What
it
really
does
is
force
us
to
adapt.
We
do
this
all
the
time
in
small
ways
without
thinking
about
it.
For
example,
you
get
new
software
for
your
computer,
and
you
have
to
learn
some
new
commands.
The
more
you
adapt
to
smaller
changes,
the
easier
it
is
to
handle
the
big
ones.
The
world
is
changing
rapidly.
Automation
and
artificial
intelligence
are
blazing
new
trails
in
technology.
Dell
Technologies
and
the
Institute
for
the
Future
published
a
report
stating,
“85%
of
the
jobs
that
our
people
will
be
doing
in
2030
haven’t
been
invented
yet.”
Wow,
that’s
only
ten
years
away.
Because
of
all
this
change,
skills
such
as
questioning,
analysis,
innovation,
and
creativity
are
becoming
increasingly
im-
portant
in
the
workplace,
as
will
a
new
one
called
Change
Agility
which
is
defined
as
an
individual’s
ability
to
predict
and
adapt
to
change.
Learning
these
skills
now
will
prepare
you
for
the
future
and
reduce
your
fear
of
change.
The
best
way
to
get
comfortable
with
change
is
with
practice.
Start
by
intentionally
experiencing
new
things.
The
more
you
expose
yourself
to
change,
the
eas-
ier
it
gets
when
the
big
ones
come
along.
You’ll
have
learned
the
art
of
adapting,
and
your
change
agility
will
be
well
conditioned
for
what’s
coming
next.

Unlocking
Lithium
from
Geothermal
Brines
Adapted
from
Information
by
EnergySource
Minerals
California’s
Salton
Sea
has
been
a
geothermal
resource
for
companies
for
over
50
years.
The
geothermal
brine
at
the
site
is
rich
in
several
critical
minerals
used
for
energy
storage
and
electric
vehicles,
but
no
one
has
figured
out
how
to
extract
those
minerals
for
commercial
use
-
until
now.
California-based
EnergySource
Minerals
believes
it
has
d
eveloped
a
method
for
extracting
battery-spec
lithium
from
the
geothermal
brine.
“EnergySource
Minerals
has
successfully
completed
a
feasibility
study
for
the
extraction
and
production
of
lithium
from
geothermal
brine,
and
is
now
proceeding
toward
a
commercial
lithium
extraction
initiative
called
Project
ATLiS,”
said
EnergySource
Minerals
CEO
and
President
Eric
Spomer.
Project
ATLiS
will
use
it’s
proprietary
Integrated
Lithium
Adsorption
Desorption
(ILiAD)
technology
to
extract
lithium
from
the
brine
currently
flowing
through
the
Featherstone
geothermal
power
plant.
Pilot
trials
have
confirmed
impurity
removal
rates
of
more
than
99.9%
with
over
90%
lithium
recovery.
ILiAD
technology
stemmed
from
combining
existing,
mature,
and
commercially-proven
techniques
used
in
lithium
and
adja-
cent
industries
in
a
different
way.
“It’s
off-the-shelf
technology
uniquelyapplied
to
our
brine,”
said
Spomer.
“We
conducted
rigorous
testing
to
ensure
the
combined
sequence
was
robust.
As
a
consequence
of
this
effort,
we’ve
found
that
the
design
can
be
applied
to
existing
or
proposed
Salton
Sea
geothermal
plants
and
other
brine
resources.”
The
lithium
industry
is
expected
to
flourish
in
the
near
future
primarily
due
to
the
increased
use
and
production
of
electric
vehicles.
In
fact,
the
U.S.
Department
of
Transportation
predicts
more
than
half
of
cars
will
be
electric
by
2040.
The
Salton
Sea
could
be
a
significant
source
for
the
global
lithium
market.
“We
now
have
a
path
forward,”
said
Spomer.
“We
have
accomplished
some-
thing
that
is
necessary
in
the
step
toward
commercial
production.
It’s
an
unprece-
dented
benefit
not
only
to
Imperial
Valley,
California,
but
to
the
wider
region
and
the
world.”
The
project
is
expected
to
be
fully
operational
by
early
2023.

is
expected
to
help
the
estimated
1.5
million Americans
living
without
access
to
clean,
safe,
affordable
drinking
water.
The

football
fans,
he
is
a
two-time
Super

Champion,
the
2018
NFL
Walter
Payton
Man
of
the
Year,
and
son
of
pro

Howie
Long. Chris
began
his
foundation,
dedicated
to
raising
funds
and
awareness
for
clean
water
communities
in
East
Africa,
in
2015.
One
of
the
initiatives
of
the
Chris
Long
Foundation
is
Waterboys,
which
brings
NFL players,
their
fans,
corporate
sponsors,
and
other
charitable
organizations,
together
to
raise
funds
for
sustainable
clean
water
wells
through
WorldServe
International,
the
initiative’s
benefiting
charity.
Long
has
recruited
26
players
from
over
20
different
teams
to
serve
as
their
club’s
“waterboy.”
With
a
goal
to
build
a
well
representing
each
of
the
32
NFL teams,
the
group
has
raised
over
$1.3
million
to
date,
enough
to
build
24
wells.
Long
recently
decided
to
expand
the
foundation’s
mission
to
include
meeting
the
needs
of
Americans
without
access
to
clean,
safe
drinking
water.
“It’s
always
been
a
passion
of
mine
to
connect
our
work
abroad
with
our
work
domestically,”
said
Long.
“We
are
committed
to
making
a
huge
difference
domestically
and
will
focus
on
the
water
issues
that
affect
pri-
marily
rural,
impoverished
communities.”

Code,
then
Test
b
y
Britt
Storkson
Owner,
P2FlowLLC
There
is
currently
considerable
interest
by
mostly
educational
establishments
in
something
called
“Coding”…
meaning
knowing
how
to
write
computer
code
used
to
operate
various
computer
systems.
What
about
testing
the
code
to
make
sure
it
does
what
it
is
supposed
to
do?
Computer
code
testing
should
be
paramount
in
terms
of
importance,
but
is
often
treated
as
an
afterthought
or
essentially
ignored.
Like
many
disciplines,
computer
product
testing
takes
many
forms,
and
different
types
of
testing
are
required
for
different
applications.
There
are
also
different
levels
of
“mission
critical”
applications.
For
example,
if
the
screen
on
your
smartphone
is
blue
when
it
is
supposed
to
be
green,
it’s
a
mistake
that
should
be
corrected,
but
most
of
the
time,
screen
colors
are
not
a
critical
parameter.
However,
if
a
code
error
causes
the
airplane
it
is
controlling
to
suddenly
dive
into
the
ground,
it
is
a
critical
error
and
the
product
should
be
subjected
to
a
much
higher
level
of
thorough
and
repeated
testing
to
make
sure
it
doesn’t
do
anything
that
would
jeopardize
human
lives.
I
spend
far
more
time
testing
than
I
do
writing
code
for
the
computer
controls
products
I
make.
I
also
spend
considerable
time
writing
code
that
will
be
used
only
for
testing
purposes
and
will
not
be
incorporated
into
the
final
product.
This
allows
me
to
test
each
individual
function
to
make
sure
everything
is
working
right
and
makes
troubleshooting
easier.
The
fact
numerous
program-
mers
do
nothing
but
“code”
and
are
not
involved
in,
or
perhaps
not
competent
to
test
individual
components
or
the
final
prod-
uct,
would
suggest
a
flawed
process.
I
had
a
relative
who
worked
security
for
the
1980
Olympics
held
in
Los
Angeles,
California.
He
was
assigned
to
check
the
various
busses
transporting
participating
athletes
for
bombs
-
often
by
using
mirrors
to
check
the
undersides
of
the
busses
for
explosive
materials.
More
importantly,
secu-
rity
personnel
were
required
to
ride
with
these
athletes
in
the
busses
they
inspected
for
the
duration
of
the
trip.
The
same
stan-
dard
should
apply
for
computer
coding.
If
a
“coder”
is
involved
only
in
the
develop-
ment
of
the
product
and
not
its
final
exe-
cution,
it’s
a
flawed
process.
One
place
I
worked
had
a
computer-
controlled
fan
cooling
system
that
worked,
but
it
didn’t
work
very
well
and
was
far
more
expensive
than
it
needed
to
be.
I
was
tasked
with
trying
to
maintain
and
repair
these
machines.
Since
I
could
not
find
much
in
the
way
of
supporting
documents,
I
attempted
to
find
someone
who
was
involved
in
build-
ing
this
machine
as
the
“information
source”
I
needed.
After
spending
considerable
time
searching
for
a
“system
guru”
who
could
provide
information
about
these
machines,
I
could
not
find
anyone
to
claim
responsi-
bility
for
building
the
things.
This
suggested
two
possibilities:
A)
The
product
developer
was
so
embarrassed
for
making
such
a
poor
product
he/she
would
not
claim
responsibility
for
the
product,
or
B)
The
product
developer
had
resigned,
been
fired,
or
reassigned
so
there
was
no
one
in
the
company
to
consult.
Competent
product
testing
is
not
glam-
orous.
You
won’t
get
calls
from
total
strangers
wanting
to
hear
your
product
testing
story.
It
can
be
boring
and
tedious,
but
it
must
be
done
because
sometimes
lives
depend
on
it.

New DTH Hammer and Bits for Blasthole Drilling
Adapted from Information by Caterpillar
CAT
®
announced the release of its new down-the-hole (DTH) hammers and bits designed specifically for blasthole drilling operations.
The new DTH hammer is six inches in diameter and the first to be introduced in the new DTH line. Its valved design provides reliable operation,
low air consumption, easier maintenance, and cost-effective rebuild. The piston design delivers long life and efficient energy transfer.
The new hammer is rated to run with compressed air systems driving working pressures up to 500 pounds per square inch. This
additional back-head pressure, when combined with corresponding airflow demand, generates more blows per minute, producing
faster penetration rates in even the hardest of materials.
The company is also introducing bits for DTH drilling, available in
several configurations and in both standard and heavy-duty versions.
This allows drill operators to match the bit to the individual rock characteristics
and job requirements. Bit selections include a variety of carbide shapes (spher-
ical, ballistic) and face shapes (concave, flat, convex). These particular bits are optimized for high wear resistance and improved rock chip-
ping. The aggressive, long-lasting cutting structure combined with the efficient CAT DTH hammer delivers a superior rate of penetration.
The company uses advanced materials and heat treatment technology which provides a longer life and results in lower overall
drilling costs in the most demanding conditions.
A head-to-head trial in iron ore and quarry applications revealed the CAT DTH hammers and bits significantly lowered the total
cost of drilling.

Bringing
Wastewater
Back
to
Life
in
Manufacturing
Adapted
from
Information
by
Grundfos
Grundfos
Serbia
built
its
manufacturing
facility
in
Indjija
in
2012.
With
more
than
30
production
lines
creating
more
than
four
million
different
products,
the
site
produces
a
great
deal
of
wastewater.
The
company
plans
to
build
a
technically
sophis-
ticated
water
treatment
plant
to
reuse
the
plant’s
wastewater.
Using
the
Grundfos
Biobooster,
the
closed-loop
system
will
treat
all
domestic
wastewater,
accounting
for
60-70%
of
the
factory’s
wastewater,
using
the
companys
MBR (membrane
bio-reactor)
technology.
Additional
wastewater
treatment
technologies,
as
well
as
rainwater
harvesting
technology,
will
help
the
site
demon-
strate
how
a
large-scale
industrial
facility
can
operate
with
minimal
water
footprint.
The
company’s
next-generation
ultra
filtration
system
goes
be-
yond
conventional
wastewater
treatment,
removing
nitrates
and
bacteria
producing
extremely
high-quality
water,
which
can
be
reused
at
the
facil-
ity.
The
system
is
also
compact
and
modular,
so
it
can
be
used
in
remote
locations.
“It
is
very
important
for
us
to
have
a
company
like
Grundfos
that
takes
care
of
the
environment
and
which
is
at
the
very
top
in
the
development
of
modern
technologies.
This
shows
that
Indjija
is
a
place
where
every
company
has
absolutely
all
opportunities
for
advancement
and,
for
our
part,
we
will
continue
to
provide
maximum
support
to
such
projects,”
said
Vladimir
Gak,
Mayor
of
Indjija
Municipality.
Globally,
the
company
plans
to
cut
its
water
consumption
in
half
by
2025.
Water
efficiency
and
water
treatment
is
at
the
core
of
these
ambitious
goals,
with
the
factory
in
Indjija
as
a
shining
example.
“We
have
made
a
big
investment
here
in
Indjija
because
it
is
the
right
thing
to
do.
As
a
company,
we
have
an
obligation
to
be
first
movers
and
clean
our
own
water
-
to
keep
order
in
our
own
house
so
to
speak.
I
am
confident
this
can
be
a
major
inspiration
within
our
company
and
to
other
companies
as
well,”
stated
Veljko
Todorović,
plant
director
for
Grundfos
Serbia.
The
Indjija
production
site
is
the
company’s
third
largest
production
facil-
ity
in
the
world.
The
plant’s
closed-loop
wastewater
treatment
system
will
act
as
a
high-level
and
scalable
example
of
how
factories
can
be
developed
with
sustain-
able
methods
in
mind.
“This
is
a
major
milestone,
and
I
want
to
thank
everyone
who
have
helped
make
this
possible.
We
are
the
first
to
imple-
ment
this
technology
in
the
area,
we
want
to
inspire
and
help
take
care
of
the
envi-
ronment
in
the
whole
region.
We
hope
to
continue
our
great
working
relationship
with
the
local
authorities
in
this
respect,”

Stéphane
Simonetta,

execu-
tive

Adapted
from
Information
by
the
M
inerals
Education
Coalition
In
ancient
times,
people
used
pol-
ished
pieces
of
metal
as
mirrors.
Today,
most
mirrors
are
sheets
of
glass
coated
on
the
back
with
aluminum
or
silver
paint.
T
here
are
three
types
of
mirrors,
plane,
concave,
and
convex.
Plane
mirrors
are
flat
and
reflect
light
at
the
same
angle
as
the
light
hitting
the
mirror.
This
makes
the
image
the
same
size
as
the
object
being
reflected.
Concave
mirrors
curve
inward,
which
causes
the
light
to
come
to
a
focus,
making
the
image
larger.
Convex
mirrors
curve
outward
and
spread
out
the
light
they
reflect,
which
makes
objects
seem
smaller
or
farther
away.
More
than
400
million
square
feet
of
mirrors
are
made
every
year
in
the
U.S.
