Soilmec sm-5 innovation takes nomination

The Soilmec SM-5 Drilling Rig was nominated for this award due to the success on the Crossrail Project in-tunnel work completed by WJ Groundwater Ltd. The brief was to design a compact rig with a high degree of articulation to drill at any angle or alignment, but with sufficient power to drill up to 200 mm diameter and up to 40 m depth, while fulfilling the demands of the restricted access and working area.
