 BG 15 H The BAUER BG ValueLine

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

Drilling uncased deep boreholes stabilized by drilling fluid, or drilling cased boreholes with
installing casings by the rotary drive or by a hydraulic casing oscillator. If Kelly drilling is
your task, then the BG ValueLine is our solution. The machines of the ValueLine are specifically
adapted to no other purpose than Kelly drilling – and that perfectly.
You can expect superior Bauer performance and customary Bauer durability at affordable
costs for acquisition and operation. How we do it? By applying cutting-edge technology,
reduced to nothing less than the essentials.
