Our working paper on the subject of slurry management will also appear shortly which marks cooperation under the leadership of the US American Association, CSDA. The topic of slurry management comes more and more into focus as it is part of the holistic way of dealing with the waste product, the drilling and separation of water.

The structural survey that was carried out in September has recently been evaluated and made available on our website. For the second time, contractors and manufacturers around the world were surveyed and the data obtained presented a look at the different markets and their characteristics worldwide.

We made very successful use of the contactless time with webinars during this second year of the coronavirus pandemic. We held a total of six webinars from the ÖNorm over GPR technologies, PQ-6 connection and one involving safety guidelines concerning the handling of diamond tools. We look forward to continuing this series next year.

Now at the end of the year, I would like to thank you for your trust and support and look forward to welcoming you again in person next year.

I wish you and your families a Merry Christmas and stay healthy!
