Case Study: Yılmaden Holding cuts drilling costs with Seequent's Leapfrog Geo and Central

How Seequent is helping Yılmaden save between USD 500,000 and USD 1 Million on their annual drilling budget.

Yılmaden Holding, a global chrome producer operating mining camps in Kazakhstan and Turkey, was struggling to improve drilling accuracy and collaboration across seven districts and 34 exploration projects. The company needed a better way to share up-to-date geological models and drilling plans between field teams and headquarters, so it introduced Seequent’s Leapfrog Geo and Seequent Central.

Seequent implemented a centralized, collaborative 3D modelling workflow using Leapfrog Geo and Seequent Central, with technical support to help teams adopt the new process. The result was a 22% increase in drilling accuracy, a 50% reduction in modelling time, and annual savings of between USD 500,000 and USD 1 million on drilling costs.
