At Drilcorp, based in Seaham, we take pride in our extensive fleet of state-of-the-art drilling rigs, designed to meet the complex demands of geotechnical site investigations. Our commitment to delivering precise and reliable data is supported by a comprehensive array of in-hole drilling and sampling equipment, essential for ensuring the success of any site investigation project.
Drilcorp’s arsenal of testing equipment is designed to offer unparalleled accuracy in geotechnical assessments. Our packers are vital for conducting hydraulic conductivity tests in boreholes, providing detailed insights into the permeability of subsurface layers. Additionally, we utilise micro purging techniques to obtain groundwater samples that are both representative and minimally disturbed, ensuring the integrity of the data collected for hydrogeological analysis.
Our surveying capabilities are second to none, featuring advanced equipment that enhances the precision of our geotechnical investigations. Drilcorp employs high-resolution CCTV systems capable of inspecting boreholes up to 650 metres in depth, allowing for detailed visual assessments of borehole conditions. Furthermore, our borehole deviation and verticality tools ensure that the drilling process adheres strictly to design specifications, which is critical for the accurate placement of piles and other structural elements.
We also employ unique remote-controlled track-mounted compressors (TMAC) to further enhance our operations. Our fleet’s advanced capabilities are maximised by our team of operators, who are NVQ Level 2 in Land Drilling qualified, alongside certifications from Drilcorp’s comprehensive in-house training system.
Our Geotechnical experts are dedicated to providing clients with an unmatched service, meeting all their needs in a timely, professional, and cost-effective manner. At Drilcorp, transparency is key, therefore our clients receive electronic, daily drilling reports each morning for the previous day’s operation – subject to communication availability.
