Summary

Digital drill logging has enabled accuracy and precision in mining along with high ROIs. This can potentially lead to optimized drilling patterns and better fragmentation control that is cost-effective.

This is evident from the webinar where there is a discussion about how easily Strayos improves reliability and viability. Especially, by using the Fielder Drill log app on Strayos, it becomes much easier to determine how deep to go with a drill depth, and recording information needed for the blasting team to asses. However, this also causes the challenge of shifting paper-based logging to digital drill logging. The sudden shifts to implementing advanced technology could seem overwhelming for the drill and blasting team as the concept while its very efficient, it’s new.

Mike Trujillo from WESCO and Nick Cunningham from Petra Drilling & Blasting discuss the challenges with implementing digital drill logs (DDL) in their operations as well as the advantages due to the ROI they've realized because of their efforts.

Learn more about:

  • the DDL solution they chose & why
  • how they improved driller performance with DDLs
  • how they used DDLs to better their blast outcomes
  • how DDLs simplified & streamlined reporting, record keeping, & compliance

Polls

With over 160 registrants we had excellent audience participation. Here are the poll questions asked and their responses:

Q&A

1.Is the digital drill log a part of the Strayos drill & blast software or is it an individual app and it would be used separately?

The Fielder Drill log app is an individual app, but syncs its data to the web app.

2. How much does the app cost? there is some kind of subscription?

Yes. Please reach out to our team for pricing, info@strayos.com

3. Is it possible for this software to be integrated into a dispatch system?

Please reach out to our team for development, info@strayos.com

4. How does this software record and display soft seams versus voids?

The user has control over how they would like the seams and voids to be displayed, but setting different colored values to represent sub-surface data.

5. Is the digital blast log could be integrated with MWD data from drill rig?

The drill log data can be seen with MWD data within the Strayos platform.
