Bit Brokers International
Bit Brokers International is proud to present the VersaReam. The VersaReam is bi-directional, has interchangeable and expandable blades, can produce two to three times the penetration rate of conventional cone reamers and has superior hole-cleaning capabilities. Unlike traditional roller cones that work well in unconsolidated formations, the polycrystalline diamond compact inserts of the VersaReam shave away the rock, making it possible to operate with higher rotation speeds more efficiently in consolidated formations such as shales, limestones and sandstones. The self-centering design of the VersaReam eliminates the need for centralizers. It has no cutters to lose in the hole, no bearings to wear out or seals to fail.

by Jeremy Verdusco | January 20, 2015

It's no secret that groundwater is a vital resource, or that it's being withdrawn more than ever. Questions about groundwater sustainability are in the headlines every other day. But let's face it.

 Quotable

— Neil Sturchio, University of Delaware
Check out February's National Driller for our look
at the science of dating groundwater.
