With our focus on teamwork, exceptional customer service, and world-class craftsmanship, we are recognised as one of Africa’s largest and most respected drilling companies. Our services are designed to address a wide variety of industrial and geological requirements. Here is how our services benefit clients:
Borehole drilling
Borehole drilling is crucial for accessing groundwater and conducting geological investigations. It supports sustainable water management and various industrial applications by providing access to vital resources beneath the earth’s surface. The primary benefits include:
- Access to groundwater: Ensures a reliable supply of water for drinking, irrigation, and industrial processes.
- Geological investigations: Facilitates the study of underground formations, helps identify mineral deposits, and assesses geological risks.
- Construction applications: Essential for foundation stabilisation, geothermal heating systems, and underground utility installations.
Diamond core drilling
Diamond core drilling is essential for geological analysis and resource assessment. This technique involves extracting precise cylindrical samples of underground materials, which are crucial for informed decision-making in mining and exploration. The benefits include:
- Accurate sampling: Provides high-quality, undisturbed core samples that accurately reflect geological formations.
- Exploration efficiency: Reduces exploration time and costs while minimising environmental impact.
- Resource evaluation: Enables detailed analysis of mineral composition and structural characteristics.
Reverse circulation drilling
Reverse circulation drilling efficiently lifts rock chips and drill cuttings from underground without using mud or fluids. This method supports accurate geological analysis and minimises environmental disturbance. Key benefits include:
- Sample recovery: Efficiently retrieves uncontaminated samples, maximising recovery for accurate resource assessment.
- Environmental benefits: Reduces soil and water displacement, preserving ecosystem integrity.
- Cost-effectiveness: Lowers drilling time, labour costs, and equipment wear.
ODEX Drilling
ODEX drilling is known for its versatility and efficiency, capable of penetrating various geological formations, from soil and sand to bedrock. This method is ideal for mineral exploration and construction projects. The benefits include:
- Versatility: Suitable for diverse applications, including drilling water wells and mineral exploration.
- Efficiency: Rapidly advances boreholes through challenging underground conditions.
- Reduced environmental impact: Minimises disturbance to surrounding ecosystems.
Geophysical surveys
Inyati uses advanced technology, such as the DJI M600 Pro ROA with a GSM Potassium Data Magnetometer, for precise geo-hydrological surveys. This technology generates high-resolution aerial magnetic maps essential for accurate groundwater and mineral analysis. The benefits include:
- Fast surveying: Quick data collection reduces project timelines.
- High-resolution mapping: Provides detailed insights into geological features for better decision-making.
- Compliance and safety: Adheres to strict regulations of Civil Aviation Authorities (CAA), ensuring safe and legal operations.
Symmetrical drilling
Symmetrical drilling involves creating balanced patterns of holes in workpieces, crucial for industries where uniformity and balance are of critical importance. This method enhances product quality and aesthetics. The benefits include:
- Structural integrity: Ensures uniformity and improves the reliability and longevity of components.
- Aesthetic appeal: Enhances the visual appeal and market competitiveness of finished products.
- Manufacturing efficiency: Minimises material waste and machining errors, increasing overall productivity.
Borehole flushing and cleaning
Post-drilling processes like borehole flushing and cleaning are essential for maintaining optimal flow conditions and preventing contamination. The benefits include:
- Borehole maintenance: Ensures efficient and reliable water supply by maintaining optimal flow rates.
- Contamination prevention: Reduces the risk of blockages and contamination, protecting groundwater quality.
- Equipment longevity: Extends the lifespan of pump systems and borehole infrastructure.
