Welcome back. Per DPTR drlg, they're using a special rig with

some real leading drlg technology. This is necessary to penetrate the thousands of ft of super hard basalt they have to get through in order to reach the NG pay zones thought to be beneath.

Honestly dunno how many of these advanced tech rigs exist, or might be available. Suspect, if and when a decision is made to increase the pace of exploration, another rig will have to be built for the purpose.
