Drilling

Drilling company NovaDrilling uses advanced Epiroc drilling equipment, Boyles C6 and Christensen CS140 rigs, which have been tested and proven themselves in the global market.

The company is engaged in core drilling of vertical and horizontal wells in geological sections of various complexity levels, up to 1200 meters deep.

Reverse Circulation drilling (RC) (using a rotary auger and an air compressor) is getting extremely popular among mining companies in Kazakhstan. As it proves to be efficient in operational and detailed exploration, demonstrating fast and efficient sampling. It is attractive method is due to the high speed and low cost per 1 running meter drilling, as opposed to core drilling in the early stages of exploration works. Our company uses modern RC Rigs Explorac 100 from Epiroc on a self-propelled tracked base, which allows drilling in remote areas, up to 250 meters deep.

We have crawler, wheeled, truck mounted, skid mounted, lightweight rigs that can be transported by helicopter to remote areas. We offer our clients a modern pool of drilling rigs for each geological work, providing drilling in the most extreme conditions and at a depth up to 2500 running meters. When operating drilling rigs, great attention is paid to safety requirements to reduce the risk of injury while drilling.

The company is engaged in underground drilling at various angles, vertically up, down and horizontally to a depth of 500 m or more. Wells are drilled in a rotary way with diamond bits with coring with single, double coring pipes and removable core drills. For underground drilling, we use modern compact Epiroc Diamec U4 drilling rigs, which allows to safely adjust in confined spaces.
