What made this job complex
Working on a 200’x200’ (less than 1 acre) site in a very busy, urban environment make this job logistically much more challenging than a normal drilling job. Posillico has to overcome meeting an aggressive scheduled while also protecting it’s employees and the general public from the odors and harmful vapors.
How Posillico solved it
Meticulous planning and phase drawings to coordinate equipment, manpower, and storage areas on such a small site. Utilizing odor neutralizing concentrate and encapsulating foam to keep nuisance odors from leaving the site and holding community outreach meetings to maintain a positive relationship with neighboring residents.
