Delivering Precision in Challenging Environments

Pro-Drill has just completed a geotechnical investigation in a constrained and environmentally sensitive river gorge, demonstrating our capability to operate efficiently in complex terrain while maintaining high safety and environmental standards.

Upon completion, all boreholes were instrumented with 85mm inclinometer installations, enabling ongoing subsurface deformation monitoring and providing critical data to support long-term asset performance and risk management.

Operating adjacent to fast-flowing water and within tight access corridors requires careful planning, disciplined ex*****on, and a team committed to doing things right — every time.

At Pro-Drill, we combine technical capability, modern equipment, and experienced crews to deliver high-quality geotechnical data where it matters most.

New Equipment. Proven Performance. Outstanding Results.

When we made the decision to invest in the latest generation of drill rigs, our goal was simple — provide our clients with safer, more productive, and more reliable drilling solutions.

After several months operating in a wide range of New Zealand ground conditions, we are pleased to report that our newest rigs have exceeded expectations.

From challenging volcanic deposits and alluvial gravels through to stiff clays, weathered rock, and hard rock coring applications, these rigs have consistently delivered exceptional performance, reliability, and recovery rates. The combination of modern hydraulic systems, advanced drilling technology, and our experienced crews has resulted in increased productivity while maintaining the high-quality samples and data our clients rely upon.

The addition of these rigs further strengthens Pro-Drill’s position as a leader in geotechnical drilling, providing increased capacity and flexibility to support projects throughout New Zealand.

Key benefits we are already seeing include:

✅ Improved drilling efficiency and production rates
✅ Enhanced safety systems for our crews
✅ Reduced downtime and increased reliability
✅ Excellent sample recovery and borehole quality
✅ Greater capability across diverse geological conditions
✅ Increased fleet capacity to meet growing client demand

Investment in modern equipment is more than purchasing machinery — it is a commitment to our clients, our people, and the future of our industry.

With additional new rigs continuing to join the fleet, Pro-Drill remains focused on delivering innovative drilling solutions backed by industry-leading equipment and highly skilled operators.

Recovery is Discovery.

Building More Than Drill Rigs – Building Capability

At Pro-Drill, investing in new drill rigs is only part of the equation. To deliver industry-leading geotechnical drilling services, we also invest heavily in the support systems that keep our operations efficient, safe, and productive.

As part of our ongoing fleet expansion, we are commissioning a new generation of customised support vehicles designed specifically around the needs of our drilling operations. Every vehicle has been configured to improve mobilisation efficiency, enhance site safety, support our crews, and ensure we arrive ready to deliver from day one.

These purpose-built units provide:
✔ Enhanced tooling and equipment storage
✔ Improved site logistics and mobilisation capability
✔ Increased operational efficiency and productivity
✔ Higher safety standards for our field teams
✔ Greater reliability and reduced downtime
✔ A professional presentation that reflects the standards we hold ourselves to

Our recent investment in new drill rigs is being matched by investment across the entire fleet, ensuring our clients receive the full benefit of modern, reliable, and well-supported equipment.

At Pro-Drill, excellence isn’t achieved by a single piece of equipment—it’s achieved through a complete operational system designed to deliver certainty, performance, and quality outcomes on every project.

As our fleet continues to grow, so does our commitment to providing New Zealand’s leading geotechnical drilling capability.

Sonic drilling

14/05/2026

Pro-Drill continues to set the benchmark in sonic drilling performance across New Zealand, having now delivered over 1,000,000 metres of sonic drilled geotechnical investigations.

This milestone reflects not just volume, but consistency — delivering high-quality, low disturbance sampling across complex ground conditions for infrastructure, environmental and geotechnical projects nationwide.

Our capability is underpinned by a fleet of six dual-head (DUO) drill rigs, enabling both sonic and rotary drilling methods from a single platform.This provides clear advantages to our clients:• Reduced mobilisation requirements• Increased drilling efficiency on site• Seamless transition between drilling methods• Greater certainty in ground investigation outcomes

Investment in equipment is matched by investment in people. Our sonic drilling teams are trained directly through Eijkelkamp, with two certified trainers within our organisation, ensuring knowledge, methodology and standards are embedded across every crew.

With the largest fleet of sonic drilling capability in New Zealand, Pro-Drill continues to deliver safe, efficient and technically robust drilling solutions at scale.

Mobilising multiple rigs to a single project isn’t just about scale — it’s about precision delivery, programme certainty, and maximising value for our clients.

At Pro-Drill, deploying a multi-rig spread allows us to significantly accelerate production while maintaining strict quality control across every borehole. By running concurrent operations, we reduce overall programme durations, mitigate weather and ground-related delays, and provide clients with faster access to critical geotechnical data for decision-making.

From a technical standpoint, multi-rig mobilisation enables:

* Parallel drilling and testing (CPT, coring, sonic) across multiple locations
* Efficient staging of plant and crews to optimise site logistics
* Consistent data capture and reporting across all rigs in real time
* Reduced downtime through resource redundancy and proactive planning

The result is a streamlined operation where productivity, safety, and data integrity are all enhanced — not compromised.

Whether it’s a large-scale infrastructure investigation or a time-critical programme, our ability to mobilise and coordinate multiple rigs ensures we deliver on what matters most: reliable data, on time.

Just us, from space 🌏 😌 given our connection to the land seeing our name spelt from images from nature is pretty cool.

NASA - National Aeronautics and Space Administration “Your Name in Landsat” tool launched for Earth Day has quickly become a chance for brands to lock in not just beautiful imagery ... but giving them their very own "view from above."
