Geotechnical Drilling

Our geotechnical division provides the foundation for safe and informed engineering design.
We conduct detailed subsurface investigations to determine soil, rock, and groundwater conditions, helping clients design and build with confidence.

Capabilities:

  • Borehole drilling for soil and rock sampling
  • Standard penetration testing (SPT)
  • In-situ permeability and pressuremeter testing
  • Instrumentation installation (piezometers, inclinometers, etc.)
  • Laboratory coordination and reporting

 

Exploration Drilling

We support mineral and resource exploration with high-accuracy core recovery and data integrity.
Our exploration teams are equipped to handle diverse geological conditions, ensuring samples that meet the strictest quality standards.

Capabilities:

  • Diamond coring (NQ, HQ, PQ sizes)
  • Downhole surveying
  • Core orientation and geotechnical logging
  • Remote site mobilisations

 

Reverse Circulation (RC) Drilling

RC drilling offers cost-effective and rapid results for mineral exploration.
Our rigs are built for speed, accuracy, and efficiency — delivering clean, dry samples while minimising contamination.

Capabilities:

  • RC drilling to depths exceeding 300m
  • Dual air and dust suppression systems
  • Real-time sample collection and splitting

 

Rotary & Sonic Drilling

Our rotary and sonic drilling services are ideal for environmental, water, and infrastructure applications requiring precision and minimal disturbance.

Capabilities:

  • Rotary mud and air drilling for various ground formations
  • Sonic drilling for continuous core recovery
  • Environmental sampling and monitoring well installation

 

Directional Drilling

When precision is everything, we deliver.
Our directional drilling capability enables controlled bore paths under obstacles such as roads, rivers, and infrastructure, reducing environmental and operational impact.

Applications:

  • Pipeline crossings
  • Utility and cable installations
  • Geological data acquisition under restricted zones
