The tier-1 panel-pursuit playbook with drilling-specific deliverables: equipment-register visibility, safety-credential authority, geological-experience storytelling, and the LinkedIn cadence drillers stop scrolling for.

The drilling playbook

Six layers, equipment, experience, credentials, capability.

Equipment register visibility

Rig fleet, generation, capability ratings, depth capacity, deployment readiness, surfaced clearly on the website. Procurement officers and senior geos want to see the spec table.

Tier-1 panel pursuit marketing

Capability statement designed for tier-1 mining house procurement, project-experience reels, geological-domain authority, JKMRC-aligned methodology disclosure where applicable.

03

LinkedIn senior-leader cadence

Personal-profile LinkedIn cadence for senior drilling leaders, site-experience storytelling, rig-mobilisation milestones, safety storytelling. The cadence drillers and procurement officers actually engage with.

04

Safety-credential authority

ISO 45001, NSCA awards, safety-incident transparency, near-miss reporting maturity. Drilling has the highest safety-stakes profile in the industrial book, credentialled marketing reflects that.

05

Geological-experience storytelling

Region-specific experience (Goldfields, Yilgarn, Pilbara, Mt Isa Block, Lachlan Fold Belt), commodity-specific experience (gold, copper, lithium, REEs), formation-specific methodology. Authority signals geos pick up on.

RECRUITMENT

Driller and offsider supply

Drilling contractors run on people. SEEK, Indeed, Facebook Groups for FIFO driller recruitment runs alongside the panel-pursuit marketing as a paired engagement.

Why drilling marketing is its own discipline

Drilling is a tier-1 panel-pursuit business with WA + QLD concentration.

Australian drilling contractors live or die by tier-1 mining-house panels. Sitting on the BHP, Rio, FMG, Newmont, or Glencore drilling panel is the difference between consistent rig utilisation and feast-or-famine. The marketing job is to influence panel-evaluation decisions and to keep capability presence active during panel-review cycles.

WA + QLD concentration means most drilling contractors operate within Perth / Pilbara / Goldfields catchment or Brisbane / Bowen Basin / Mt Isa catchment. The Perth pod handles WA-based clients end-to-end, in WA-resident timezone, with capability-marketing discipline that respects the actual procurement-research patterns of tier-1 mining houses.

SMW Drilling is the working pattern reference, capability marketing, LinkedIn senior-leader cadence, tier-1 panel-pursuit support, Webflow website. Perth-pod-delivered, WA-resident senior leads.
