About M&W’s DPT Drilling Services

Direct Push Technology (DPT) is a drilling and sampling method that uses hydraulic force to push small-diameter tooling into the ground without rotary drilling. This allows for fast, clean subsurface access with minimal surface disruption.

Direct push drilling can be used to collect a variety of environmental samples, including: soil, water, and soil-gas.

Yes. DPT drilling is commonly used for vapor intrusion assessments because it allows for quick installation of soil gas probes and soil gas implants with minimal site disruption. It is an effective method for collecting subsurface vapor data in commercial, industrial, and sensitive properties.

Yes. M&W Drilling operates multiple compact, track-mounted direct push rigs designed for access to tight or restricted work areas.
