Tierney Boulter graduated from the Geological Engineering program at the University of British Columbia in Vancouver, Canada. Tierney first started with ConeTec in 2012 as a co-op student performing technical duties on several tailings storage facility projects in Canada and Peru. Upon graduation, Tierney joined ConeTec as a full-time Field Engineer. Focusing on mining and tailings related site characterization projects, Tierney specialized in operating ConeTec’s complete suite of in-situ testing and sampling equipment.
Tierney served as Senior Project Manager for one of ConeTec’s northern Alberta operations, directing all aspects of field operations for numerous comprehensive site investigation projects. Tierney has extensive experience with CPTu deployment (Seismic, Gamma, Resistivity), undrained shear strength profiling, drilling and sampling (mud rotary and sonic techniques) and various geophysical testing methods. In February 2020, Tierney started her current role as General Manager for ConeTec’s Australian Operations.
Backed by a global suite of site characterization equipment, our Australian fleet includes 220kN CPT track rigs with low ground pressure, capable of accessing terrain where wheeled vehicles cannot. The fleet is also supported by portable, highly adaptable 200kN ramsets which are well suited to remote and limited access work.
Additionally, with ConeTec's strategic partnerships in the region, we are able to increase our capacity to provide full-service drilling and sampling along with in-situ testing services.
