Owner-Managed
Hands-on involvement from management, ensuring communication, accountability and quality.
Our Drilling Services
Complete drilling solutions from exploration to production and pump testing across Southern Africa.
Production
DTH Drilling
Down-the-hole hammer drilling for hard rock formations – fast penetration, efficient cuttings removal and excellent hole straightness.
Sampling
RC Drilling
Reverse circulation drilling using dual-wall rods to bring sample cuttings to surface via the inner tube in a continuous, air-driven flow.
Production
Mud Rotary Drilling
Open-hole, fluid-based drilling ideal for unconsolidated formations, using drilling mud to stabilise the hole and lift cuttings to surface.
Deep Holes
Reverse Flood Drilling
Dual-wall systems with an inner tube allow cuttings to be transported up the drill string in a stable, continuous flow for deeper holes.
Specialised
Hydraulic / Water Hammer
Water-powered hammer solutions that use pressurised water both to power the hammer and bring cuttings to surface where air is not suitable.
Construction
Grouting
Professional borehole grouting to seal the annulus between casing and formation, protecting lower aquifers from surface contamination.
Hydrogeology
Test Pumping
Constant-rate pumping tests with water-level monitoring to evaluate borehole yield and aquifer characteristics for long-term abstraction.
Our Fleet & Operations
A modern fleet of track-mounted rigs, compressors and support vehicles ready for rapid deployment.
