Welcome to DWD Drilling
DWD Drilling is the drilling division of DWD Technologies Group, operating since 1948 with a focus on drilling deep, large-diameter boreholes. This specialization is made possible through custom-designed and built drill rigs, engineered to withstand the extreme conditions faced by the mining sector in Southern Africa, including gold and diamond drilling.
We are committed to meeting the drilling needs of clients worldwide by utilizing state-of-the-art equipment, innovative drilling techniques, and advanced design solutions.
All our drilling rigs, designed and custom-built in our own workshops, are high-capacity and paired with high-pressure output compressors. Our supply vehicle fleet, mostly equipped with all-wheel drive, ensures reliable support for all drilling units, even in the most remote locations. Our managers are experienced drillers who are technically adept and capable of handling any drilling challenge.
