Drilling

drilling saudi arabia

We offer a wide range of exploration drilling rigs, which are designed to meet many different requirements and needs; including, ore body definition, reserve evaluation, ground investigation, surface ”green field” exploration and also reverse circulation for obtaining high-quality samples.

Drilling is used to searching for mineral occurrences or clues in the rocks that may lead to mineral deposits. The information gathered during this stage may or may not lead to the discovery of valuable minerals. Drilling penetrates deep into the ground and brings up samples of whatever it finds at a specified depth. If there is any mineralization at given points far beneath the surface, drilling can give a straightforward answer and can quantify its presence at a particular depth. We can conduct all types of exploratory drilling including rotary drilling, Diamond core drilling, and reverse drilling.

Water well

We offer a complete line of hydraulic top-head-drive drills designed for water well and other applications requiring air or mud rotary, as well as down-hole hammer drilling methods. With a diverse selection of lightweight to heavy duty rigs, our extensive drill line fulfills a variety of job site demands.

TESTING & ANALYSIS

We perform Geological, Geophysical, or Geochemical analysis and testing including the following:

Geochemistry

​​​

  • Elemental Distribution:  investigate the distribution of elements in various geological systems.

  • Mineral Exploration: analyzing trace elements, isotopes, and major elements, geochemists contribute to identifying ore deposits and assessing their economic viability.

  • Environmental Geochemistry: Understanding water-rock interactions is crucial for managing water quality, predicting contamination risks, and safeguarding ecosystems.

  • Geochemical Reference Materials: develop and use reference materials for analytical methodologies and quality control.

  • Cutting-Edge Techniques: From X-ray fluorescence (XRF) to isotope geochemistry, these techniques provide insights into Earth’s chemical processes.

Geophysical Analysis

​

  • Seismic Surveys: sending sound waves into the ground and recording their reflections, we create images of subsurface structures. This technique is vital for oil exploration and understanding Earth’s crust.

  • Magnetic Surveys: Measuring variations in the Earth’s magnetic field helps identify subsurface features like buried structures or mineral deposits.

  • Gravity Surveys: Mapping variations in gravitational forces reveals subsurface density variations, aiding in mineral exploration.

  • Electromagnetic Methods: Detecting electrical conductivity variations helps locate groundwater resources and assess soil properties.

  • Ground-Penetrating Radar: Using radar waves, we image subsurface layers for archaeological studies and civil engineering projects.

Geochemical Testing ​

​​

  • X-ray Fluorescence (XRF): Determines elemental composition.

  • Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry (ICP-MS): Measures trace elements.

  • Isotope Geochemistry: Studies isotopic ratios to trace geological processes.

  • Geochemical Modeling: Predicts chemical reactions in natural systems.

​​

Geophysical Well Logging

​

  • Groundwater Investigations: Assessing aquifer quality, geometry, and water content.
    Hydrocarbon Exploration: Identifying reservoir properties and fluid content.
    Environmental Studies: Evaluating subsurface contamination and geological structures.
    Geothermal Exploration: Understanding temperature gradients and rock properties.
