We have a variety of drilling methods for various geological conditions:

  • Flooded reverse circulation drilling is used for large diameter water well drilling generally in soft and unconsolidated formations. This method also puts less pressure on the formation wall and therefore improves development of the well on completion. 
  • Direct flush rotary using mud, air, water and foam is normally used in smaller diameter borehole drilling at depths down to 900m and in all formation densities from unconsolidated to hard rock. 
  • Cable percussion drilling is appropriate where water for drilling is not available. In soft formation, this method of drilling is very efficient. 
  • Down the hole hammer drilling is normally used for hard rock formations.
  • Rotary auger, continuous flight and bucket is used in soft formations for example, piling, soakaway, boreholes, drilling, top hole to start large diameter flooded reverse drilling 

 

Commercial Water Boreholes

Along with private customers, we have worked extensively with public water supply companies, farmers, hoteliers and companies requiring a private supply. We drill and maintain water boreholes for many of the UK’s water supply companies.
