The British Drilling Association’s (BDA) Dinner Dance was held at the Hilton Newcastle Gateshead on Saturday 12th November. It was great to be able to support this event again and enjoy an evening of networking with colleagues and clients.

This year’s annual dinner dance was a particularly special event for us because our own Dave Lewins was honoured with a ‘Lifetime Achievement Award’ from the British Drilling Association:

‘With more than 40 years in the GI industry, Dave is widely recognised as a leading in situ testing engineer not only in the UK but he has worked on numerous landmark and complex projects all over the world. His reputation for dedication to get the job done, patience and good humour are legendary!’

In Situ have been lucky to have Dave heading up our Pressuremeter Operations Department since 2015 where his knowledge and skills have been fundamental to help develop and strengthen this area of the business. We hope he has a few more years left in him too! Great work Dave!
