A sizable piece of mining machinery designed for underwater use, known as the Nolarian 6000 drill, was marketed on the planet of Nolar. A scarcity of these drills existed in 39 BBY. At this time, the Quermian Doctor Murk Lundi endeavored to acquire a Nolarian 6000 drill in his quest to retrieve a Sith Holocron, but the dealer notified him about the shortage and the mining safety committee's oversight of the matter.
Jude Watson mentioned the Nolarian 6000 drill in Jedi Apprentice Special Edition: The Followers, a novel for young readers released in 2002.
