PVC & Steel Casing Installation

Casing and screening that keeps the borehole open, protects water quality and supports long-term yield.

Casing is what holds a borehole together. It keeps the hole from collapsing, seals off unwanted layers and positions screens against the water-bearing formation.

We install PVC and steel casing, selecting material and wall thickness to suit depth, formation and expected pumping duty.

Poorly specified casing is a common reason boreholes fail early, so this stage is treated as structural work rather than a fitting.

Who this is for

  • New boreholes at the completion stage
  • Boreholes suffering sand intrusion or collapse
  • Deep or high-duty industrial wells
  • Rehabilitation of older boreholes

Our process

How the work is done

  1. 1

    Specification

    Casing material and diameter are matched to depth and formation.

  2. 2

    Screen setting

    Screens are positioned against the water-bearing zone.

  3. 3

    Installation

    Casing is run into the hole and sealed where required.

  4. 4

    Gravel pack and development

    The annulus is packed and the well developed to run clear.
