- We offer
complete services to achieve your water well drilling goals using
patented rotary
drill technology. Our equipment and experience also allow us
to offer deep water well drilling to depths of 2500 feet.
-
-
- We have experience drilling
water wells in all types of weather and terrain to depths of
2500 feet.
With our Foremost Rotary Drilling rigs we are able to drill water
wells in the most complex geology of the Americas by expertly
applying dual rotary drill technology.
-
- Our Foremost/Drill dual rotary
rigs allow us to drill through all types of unconsolidated overburden
such as sand, gravel and boulders. We have two Foremost/Drill
DR 12 dual rotary rigs and one Foremost/Drill DR 24 rig in our
arsenal. The lower rotary drive can push casing up to 40 inches
in diameter while, at the same time, an independent rotary top
drive handles a drillstring equipped with a down-the-hole hammer,
drag bit or rolling cone rock bit.
Our dual rotary rig can handle difficult formations without the
use of casing hammers, under-reamers or drilling mud. Because
the drives are independent, the bit drill can drill inside, flush
with, or ahead of the casing depending on the type of overburden
encountered.
-
-
 In situations
where heaving is a factor or sample accuracy is important,
- the casing is advanced ahead
of the drill bit for hole stability and minimal
 cross-contamination
of cuttings.
-
-
- In situations where boulders
are encountered, the drill operator can stop the casing rotation,
and continue through the
boulder with a drill string. Once a pilot hole is established
in the boulder, the operator begins rotating the casing again,
and it follows the drill string through the boulder.
-
-
- This "pilot hole"
technique combines with the rotation of the casing to deliver
an uncommonly straight borehole. Once the desired casing depth
is achieved, the dual rotary drill continues drilling like a
conventional top-drive air drill.
-

-
-
- The skill and experience of
our drill crews combined with the quality of our equipment allows
us to assure our customers that we can drill a water well in
any terrain or time of the year and for an affordable cost as
well.
