Borehole drilling is the process of drilling a hole in the ground for the extraction of a natural resource such as ground water, brine, natural gas, or petroleum, for the injection of a fluid from surface to a subsurface reservoir or for subsurface formations evaluation or monitoring. Drilling for the exploration of the nature of the material underground (for instance in search of metallic ore) is best described as well drilling.
The earliest boreholes were water wells, shallow pits dug by hand in regions where the water table approached the surface, usually with masonry or wooden walls lining the interior to prevent collapse.
Modern drilling techniques utilize long drill shafts, producing holes much narrower and deeper than could be produced by digging. This is taken a step further with our unique drilling machine which ensures that your choice of water freedom is not going to adversely affect the value of your property.
Borehole drilling can be done either manually or mechanically and the nature of required equipment varies from extremely simple and cheap to very sophisticated.
Once the water survey has taken place and the quotation has been accepted and paid for, we can proceed with the borehole drilling at the identified spot.
When the drilling starts, we keep our client updated with the progress of the borehole drilling and general geological findings at all time. In this way, the client doesn't have to worry about anything.
The Easy Access Rig we use can access just about any part of your yard as long as there is enough space for the Rig to pass through.
Since ground formation varies from area to area it is difficult to postulate on the depth of a borehole. Most boreholes are between 30m – 60m, even though most boreholes can be drilled to about 80m or deeper.
Having a borehole that is or more than 100m is not advisable as the cost of running a pump at such depth might cost more than what you expected to get from the water.
The time it takes to drill a borehole depends on the depth and hardness of the surface we come across.
