In 23 years with CETCO Drilling Products, I have found drive and motivation in the opportunity (and privilege) to provide technical support and assistance to drilling contractors. When my phone rings, I answer it at night, on weekends and even vacation. I once assisted a contractor while riding on a roller-coaster in Disney World and another time while riding on a ski lift in Flagstaff, Arizona.
Given that, I felt eager to assist when Jesus Leal called from Technología para la Perforatión, a distributor in Monterrey, Mexico. He asked if I could conduct a training seminar on drilling fluids, air and foam drilling for a group of water well contractors. These contractors wanted to learn drilling techniques that could help them reach into deeper aquifers to help mitigate the water crises people face in Monterrey and other parts of northern Mexico.
