There can be no doubt that this has been an exceptional year and for all the wrong reasons. However, the drilling industry in all its forms has come together and adapted to new ways of working and that includes all of us here at GDI. We've learnt to embrace digital issues, remote working, virtual shows and online seminars. However, none of this would have been possible without you. I would therefore like to extend my most sincere thanks to all of GDI's contributors, advertisers and readers. You are the people that make GeoDrilling International what it is. I simply act as a conduit for you all to come together.

Here's to next year and whatever it may bring…
