Drilcorp Ltd Profile
Drilcorp Ltd was established as a drilling contractor in 1992, to serve the growing demand for commercial and domestic independent water supplies, dewatering and in response to a requirement for renewable forms of energy, geothermal climate control.
Over the past 18 years Drilcorp has grown to be one of the most respected drilling companies in the United Kingdom, offering an unmatched range of specialist services to an extensive range of clients with whom we are pleased to have developed excellent working relationships. It is one of our key objectives to develop long-term working relationships with all of our clients by means of providing unrivalled levels of service throughout the whole range of our drilling services.
To ensure the company is informed of any new technologies and to communicate best practice, Drilcorp is a corporate member of a number of relevant associations including; The British Drilling Association (BDA), The UK Welldrillers Association (WDA) and The National Ground Water Association (NGWA).
Drilcorp’s core business has historically been generally focussed on groundwater. This has included drilling water wells to supply high quality cost effective water to a whole range of clients and industries, dewatering for the Civil Engineering and Construction industries and monitoring wells for the Environment Agency or the NERC. Further more specialised services have also included water well associated work such as well rehabilitation, pumping tests, CCTV inspections, and borehole alignment surveys.
More recently Drilcorp has made significant investment into training and equipment to service the growing geothermal renewable energy heating / cooling market and has had a great deal of success in completing a wide range of projects throughout the UK including a number of high profile works.
Always at the forefront of new technology, Drilcorp has made a significant investment in advanced ‘sonic drilling’ technology for environmental and contaminated land surveys. This recently developed drilling method obtains soil samples of a quality never before thought possible. The fact that Drilcorp was the first company to bring this technology to the UK demonstrates the company’s commitment to deliver the most cost effective and environmentally friendly solutions to all of our clients through advanced technology and innovative methods.
Further investment has been made by Drilcorp into the design and development of a range of T’Mac self-propelled track mounted air compressors.
T’Mac features rubber tracks and is specially designed to minimise damage to delicate sites and also make the units manoeuvrable in restricted built-up areas and provide an ability to reach locations on even the most difficult of terrains.
With an extensive fleet of truck, track and trailer mounted rotary and percussive drilling rigs to suit just about any type of terrain, specialist ancillary equipment and a wide range of ancillary in-hole equipment to complement, Drilcorp Ltd has also developed the reputation for its ability “to go where no other drilling contractor can go”.
Be it extremely confined operating areas, limited access, difficult terrain, severe traffic congested areas, working within or adjacent to high profile or listed buildings or even remote islands! – Drilcorp Ltd will be there!
