NGWA Geothermal Mud Drilling and Grouting School (#734)

 

The National Ground Water Association and cooperating groundwater industry firms will present a series of one-day training programs entitled NGWA Geothermal Mud Drilling and Grouting School.

 

When:                                                  Friday, April 16, 2010                                      

                                                                Registration: 7:30 a.m.

                                                                Class: 8:30 a.m. – 3:00 p.m.

 

Where:                                                 Laibe Corp/VersaDrill

1414 Bates St

Indianapolis, IN  46201-3944

 

Cooperating industry firms:         Baroid Industrial Drilling Products

(for this offering)                             Laibe Corporation/VersaDrill

                                                                Preferred Pump & Equipment LP

 

The curriculum on grouting has been drawn from a DACUM (design a curriculum) for those engaged in well construction and vertical closed loop installations. The hands-on component will specifically address those competencies necessary to construct the vertical closed loop and protect the aquifer.           

 

All who register and attend the entire session will receive a certificate of attendance.  Those who wish to receive a certificate in grouting competencies must attend the entire class, and then pass a 20-question quiz with an 80% or better score.  (Quizzes will be scored and the results mailed to participants following the class.)

 

The certificate in grouting competencies is different from the new NGWA Certified Vertical Closed Loop Driller exam which will be introduced in July.

 

Attendees will spend most of the class outdoors and should dress accordingly.  Lunch will be included.

 

Fees and registration:                    On or before April 1:

                                                                                Members - $95
