Established in Australia in 2014, Blick has quickly grown to become a leading supplier of drilling fluids, consumables and tools across the nation.
Blick’s focus for its work throughout Australia, New Zealand and the Pacific is to provide advice and support beyond solely supplying products. Blick chooses to partner with local and global manufacturers from its network of suppliers who are also primarily focused on producing products and providing support that will assist drillers in achieving the optimal results.
Key products and manufacturers
The company’s key products focus on horizontal directional drilling (HDD) tools and equipment, which can help clients overcome drilling challenges for projects of any size.
From Rockpecker, Blick provides PDC hole openers and drill bits that are designed for numerous different applications – even under tough conditions – with stable and vibration-free applications. Made to ISO 9001:2015 quality standards, Rockpecker uses high grade materials, precision engineering techniques and continuous product development methods.
With finished products delivered efficiently across the world with an international network of distributors, Blick’s supply can ensure its Australia-based clients have access to Rockpecker manufactured equipment.
To directly assess the critical wear area in HDD applications, successfully increase bit life and drive down the overall costs of HDD projects, Blick offers contractors tricone bits from Varel’s Target® Tricone Series. All bits in the series are equipped with patented High Energy Tumbled – HET® – inserts to provide additional wear resistance and patented EdgeGuard® shirttail protection to significantly reduce legwear.
For drill pipes, Blick can supply Premier Drill Products’ Inertia Welded Drill Pipe, made in the US to the stringent standard of the American Petroleum Institute. With Premier Drill Products’ extensive line of HDD tubulars, Blick supplies all sizes of drill pipes to suit various rigs included Vermeer®, Ditch Witch®, Jet Trac® and more.
Blick also supplies hammers from Black Diamond Drilling Services Australia, with a variety of sizes available. Choosing the right hammer is largely determined by the hole size and the type of rock formation, making Blick’s range of Black Diamond hammers an accessible option for contractors.
In addition to these tools, Blick also offers Fann fluid testing equipment, Jet-Lube thread grease and Mi Swaco drilling fluids to provide ease and support during all tasks and projects, ensuring an optimal drilling result.
New location
The new Blick warehouse is located at 20 Trevi Crescent, Tullamarine, Victoria. Blick encourages those with upcoming projects to visit the new warehouse, meet the team over a coffee in the office and learn more about the products available for supply.
Additionally, the company offers to assist in taking customer’s mud knowledge to the next level by mixing a mud system in-store, which will then be tested and altered to get the desired performance required.
For clients in Queensland and New South Wales, Blick will continue to maintain its third-party logistics in both Brisbane and Sydney.
