As the geothermal energy market is continuously increasing, the German company BAUER Maschinen GmbH has developed a new deep drilling rig, while Dlubal customer Ing.-Büro H.-U. Möller was in charge of the plant's structural analysis. The system can be used to drill to a depth of 7,000 m (22,965 ft) in the areas of geothermal energy, oil, or gas.

In addition, it is possible to extend existing drillings using modern drilling technology. The drill rig was built in Germany and distributed worldwide.
