 The BAUER BG ValueLine

The BG ValueLine
Perfection is achieved
when there is nothing left to take away.

You are drilling uncased deep boreholes stabilized by drilling fluid, or cased boreholes
either with installing casings by the rotary drive or by a hydraulic casing oscillator?
If Kelly drilling is your task, then the BG ValueLine is your solution.
The machines of the ValueLine are specifically adapted to no other purpose than
Kelly drilling – and that perfectly.
