Teckna Drilling operate 5 drilling rigs with some of the newest and most modern equipment available. Our latest drilling rig the Hutte 205GT is a bespoke rig built to our specifications and imported from Germany for drilling medium sized water wells to 254mm diameters and geothermal open & closed loops, especially in difficult ground conditions with its dual rotary head.
We have also invested heavily into state of the art mud seperation equipment to maintain site cleanliness, better working environments for the drill crews leading to increased safety at the work area.
Our latest addition is the aquisition from America of a duplex mud pump. This has now been mounted at our workshop facilities onto a tracked carriage for easy movement around site. It delivers 600 gallons per hour for better flushing of the borehole which results in faster drilling penetration rates resulting in a quicker time to complete projects to tight time constraints. The unit is also complete with hydraulic off takes to run Sand Guzzler pumps at the borehole location to pump away the drilling muds to settlement tanks.
For the installation of the geothermal grout into closed loop boreholes we operate high specification grouting equipment purchased from Geothermal Supplies. These have been mounted onto a towable trailer units allowing easier transport and manouverability around the site to the borehole locations. This allows the grout to be mixed to a specified consistancy, placed down the tremmie pipe to the bottom of the borehole and pumped quickly, cleanly and efficiently so minimising time spent on site.
