- Experience: Years of proven drilling expertise and satisfied customers.
- Industry Reputation: Positive feedback from both the industry and previous clients.
- Licensed Professionals: Confirm that drillers hold valid licenses and operate safely.
Key Questions to Ask Before Drilling
- Licensing: Is the driller licensed? (Check with your State Mines and Energy Department.)
- Timeline: How long will drilling take? Low-flow bores may take hours; high-flow bores may take days depending on ground conditions.
- Cost: Pricing depends on depth, ground type, and desired flow rate. Typical structures include per-metre drilling plus casing costs or a combination of metre/hourly rates for complex bores.
- Mess & Cleanup: Drilling creates mud, dust, and water—plan for cleanup.
- Operator Expertise: Is the driller personally operating the machine?
- Dry Holes: What happens if water is not found?
- Salinity & Water Quality: What is the expected salt content, and can it be tested on-site? Proper chemical analysis is recommended after the bore has run for several weeks.
- Drillers Log: Always request a complete log documenting bore construction and water characteristics.
- Flow Verification: Insist on a flow test after drilling to ensure the bore meets your water needs.
- Casing, Gravel Packing & Drill Head: Proper materials and sizing impact bore performance and longevity.
- Challenging Ground Conditions: A quality driller can handle sand, gravel, mud, coal seams, or cavities without abandoning the job.
