WorldWide Drilling Resource

6 NOVEMBER 2013 WorldWide Drilling Resource ® More to think about... Ever wonder about recycling? We have the little icon here on this page indicating WorldWide Drilling Resource, Inc. W rld , recycles. Well, ironical- ly the local newspaper captured a great shot of our Office Administrator, Michele unloading the Suburban packed with our paper recycling at the Holmes County Recycling Plant. This brings up something else you may not be aware of. WWDR has an environmental section. Are your products, services, and/or equipment environmentally friendly? Let the World know! Now to bring you up-to-date on the changes to your Home of Solid Gold Service ~ with a Smile!™ Can you tell us what we have changed? What is new and exciting in this issue? How are we trying to make your future brighter? Here is the answer! The WWDR Team has elected to expand even further in the drilling industry. Why, you ask? Because we want YOU to SUCCEED. So, we have taken out a section (but you will still see those fabulous articles meticulously placed throughout the magazine where appropriate); changed a section, which will now include not only water well drilling, but also irrigation and wastewater. The need for water for crops is tremendous and those wells need to be drilled by the professional drilling contractor - YOU ! The water must be piped to locations (horizontal drilling comes to mind for me). Now, those wells and locations will need a vast amount of other items to make them successful irrigation sites, right? They require drill rigs, drilling fluid, pipe, fittings, hoses, pumps, and a vast array of additional things to get those operations up and running. About wastewater...what are your thoughts? The WWDR Team continues to move ever forward ~ come along with us for the ride of your lifetime - SUCCESS! See you on the trail!
