New C7 drilling rig introduced by Casagrande designed to fill the gap between the existing M9-1 and C8 drilling rigs. Weighing in at 20 tonnes, the C7 has a mast with either 7 metres or 10 metres stroke and an installed power of 155kw.

Casagrande introduce an upgraded version of the B250 piling rig designated the B300, with increased crowd and extraction capability together with a higher torque capability from the rotary head.

Eurodrill introduce a new small rotary drifter head type HD2004. This is the smallest drifter head available on the market which offers both a substantial torque and a powerful percussive mechanism and yet is compact and light enough to fit on a small drilling rig.
