LESS GUESSWORK. BETTER PLANNING.

Know what you’ve got.
Before you invest.

Water is a valuable resource. Understanding it should come before choosing a pump, installing infrastructure or committing to a new borehole.

We help homeowners, farms and businesses evaluate groundwater potential, test existing resources and plan the next practical step.

KNOW WHAT YOU’VE GOT

Test your borehole. Plan your investment.

For existing or newly drilled boreholes. Measure pumping rates, water-level drawdown and recovery to inform sustainable abstraction and equipment selection.

  • Dedicated submersible pumping equipment
  • Ultrasonic flow measurement
  • Yield, drawdown and recovery reporting

YOUR SUGGESTED NEXT STEP

Start with a drill-point survey.

Use grid and cross-line measurements to prioritise potential drilling targets. Surveys improve decision-making but cannot guarantee water, depth or yield.

A CLEAR WAY FORWARD

From survey to supply.

Start at the stage your property needs.
Each decision informs the next.

01

Survey

Identify and assess potential drill targets.

02

Drill & construct

Plan drilling and borehole construction.

03

Test & analyse

Measure yield, recovery and water quality.

04

Equip & supply

Select pumps, treatment and storage.

Clear information. Realistic expectations. Geophysical anomalies can have several causes. A survey does not guarantee water or a particular yield; drilling, testing and geological interpretation confirm actual conditions.

INSIDE A SURVEY REPORT

Two directions. A more informed decision.

This excerpt from a Groundwater SA report compares a primary line with a crossing measurement. Spatial agreement helps prioritise a proposed drilling target.

The plotted colours are instrument responses, not confirmed water or aquifer models. Drilling and testing verify actual conditions.

THE CLIENT GUIDE

How a grid-based groundwater survey works.

Measurements, cross-lines, interpretation and the limits of what a survey can tell you.

Read the illustrated guide

Your questions, answered.

Can a survey guarantee water?

No. Surveys identify responses that may relate to geological structures or weathered zones. Clay, mineralisation, interference and other conditions can also cause anomalies. The findings guide drilling decisions; drilling and testing establish the result.

Why test before buying a pump?

A pump should suit the borehole’s tested performance, lifting requirements and your demand. Drawdown and recovery measurements help guide abstraction and equipment choices.

What will I receive after testing?

The scope is agreed before fieldwork. Deliverables can include yield-test results, water-level and recovery data, recommendations, certificates and laboratory water-quality results where included.

Can you help with a report for a bank or water-use application?

Tell us the institution, authority and required scope when you enquire. Test duration and reporting must suit the specific requirement. Acceptance and authorisation are determined by the relevant institution or authority.
